hey there! im a college student living in boston and have been riding for about 7 months but consider myself a very new rider... im trying to get my skills up for the impending DH season but unfortunately i am not familiar with a lot of the trails around here. i am currently riding an evil DOC and prolly wont bother getting an XC bike (well its mostly cuz im spending money on the DOC and the DH bike) i wouldnt want to hold anyone back or be a nuisance.. but if ur in the area and know the trails i would REALLY appreciate the help (its too hard to ride with all the boys... i feel like im holding them all back and that is no fun) but yea... pretty much any day of the week im willing to ride!!! let me know please
