Bike(s): 09 SJ FSR, 03 Big Hit
Favorite Trails: New to the area
I just recently moved to SD from Mass/Southern NH and need some new riding buddies. I got into mountain biking a few years ago, and fell in love with dh. Of course SD is not the best place for lift-serviced dh, so I am stuck taking a few trips out to CO or back home to avoid pedaling uphill. I've started a bike collection (09 SJ FSR, 08 Hardrock, 03 Enduro SX and 03 Big Hit) so I'm prepared to ride anything from mellow singletrack to DH with big hits and drops. I saw the newbie rule, so I will definitely be bringing some good beer along. I also homebrew, so I will be sharing that in the next few months.

I look forward to meeting everyone and rippin socal.
