Barcy told me about you guys.
So, I'm Billy. For those of you who are in the know about Maverick Bikes, my bike's name is Ratigan, so this is really His post.

Started riding in the BS period......... Before Suspension ......early '80s. Stopped to raise my family and work in Mexico. Started again about 5 years ago.

Like to ride. Like mountain areas best. Surf.

I like long walks on the beach at sunset ....... a little wine .......... some......

Oh, right, back to what YOU guys should know.......

I've been coached a bit by Alex Estrada (World Cycles) and Pete Masiel (911 Fire guy now living in New Mex) and love passing the knowlege/skills along.

I try to hold a Friday clinic in Rancho SD on Fridays........ free ...... passing along the skills drills........ things like picking up your water bottle from the ground while riding by, etc.

Any way, see ya on the trail....................

Ya what barcy said! This guy is cool for sure, he even took the time to hang back with me when I was hung over on my first laguna ride ever. He's a really skilled guy for sure, and fast.

Welcome Billy
