Looking for some riding buddies!
I live in Diamond Bar (SoCal) and am looking for some beginner type gals to ride MTB's at places like Chino Hills and Bonelli. I normally ride with my husband but I am a high school teacher that will be on summer vacation in a couple of weeks and can ride much more frequently. I ride alone a lot but thought that it might be better to have someone else to enjoy the rides with. I'm not really looking for a "club" so to speak, but just a few gals that don't want to ride alone all the time or feel more comfortable riding with other females.
I have been riding mtb for one year and really ride for the pleasure of riding and being outdoors. I am not into highly technical riding but do like a challenge. I LOVE to climb but suck going down. I do not have clipless pedals nor see a great need for them for what I ride. I have no hang-ups about getting off the bike and walking sections that I think are scary or I can't clear - though I will usually try to clear a tough section 3-4 times before moving on. I really like singletrack but also really like long fireroad climbs. There is nothing more satisfying than having a big cold glass of beer after a long hard ride... I just like to ride.
I also ride road bikes as well and would be willing to share some rides on the road as well... I'm a bit more competent on the road bike but like to stay off really heavily travelled roads.
You can either email or reply. Happy riding!
