That time sounds good but I dont really want to have to drive more than like an hour and a half, 2 would be pushing it but where is the place you were talking about..I have no clue where things are obviously cuz I just moved here.

Hey jobott, I think I'll be living an hour and a half from you, in chico. Theres some nice rocks about an hour away from sac if you ever want to get together for a ride.


I think nikolai has gimped himself again, but there is one other guy that rides in the sac area, but Ive forgotten his name? Mark something. I'd be down for a sac ride sometime, nikolai, how long till your ungimped?

Well, The doctor put a cast on last week. I called up the doctors office and told him that I really don't think it's that bad, so he's going to take it off this Friday. This is less bad than the last time I did this to myself, but it's still pretty bad and I'll be off the bike for a few months at least.

However, there should be a vid out soon of some riding from that fateful evening.

Jon-- I'll PM you Justins contact info the next time I turn on my compooper at home. He works at USGS right next to the Sac State campus.

Apperantly there is some guy that rides a monty in sac and some of his followers according to the on campus bike shop:dunno: . Where are the rocks u speak of and can andreas get there id be up for that ride i dont wanna leave him out cuz i already kinda planned a ride with him. Graham said ill proly have the new bike saterday so it would be an awesome first ride on sunday to do some natty. BTW can someone bring a grinder so i can grind my new rim so it doesn't suck or maybe i can stop by someones house and use it real quick. Ill PM you guys my cell phone # as well so u guys can call me anytime u guys wanna ride after sunday. Tommorrow im thinking that i will be driving around looking for riding spots so i can scedual a ride here some time so i dont have to drive.

are you guys riding in sac or frisco this weekend?

both are on my way back up to chico.

[jobottDMB]

I guess frisco would be fine is there a place where we can go so i dont have to go to the hilly part...i drive a manual and my parking brake isn't working too well. Also i need an adress or something so i can mapquest it and actually be able to get there

this is the best pic I could find of it, its literally like this for miles. The whole mountain is made of granite. Smooth grippy rocks everywhere, it is mototrials heaven. Works ok for bikes too. maybe an hour+ north of sac.
