SocalXJ/NAXJA Mtn Bike Club first ride

Shirley Temple was a nug.
Location
Long since gone.
Hey riders,

Since Moab is coming up and some of you are new to rocks, slick rock, drops and steep ups on two wheels, I'm putting together a "challenge ride" of sorts to save you some scrapes, breaks and wounds on a bike in Moab.

The first meeting will be next Tuesday, meeting at Chapman and Jamboree at 6PM. We have an hour and a half to work on your climbing skills, endurance and some waterfall climbs to help with weight placement and gearing.

Be there!
 
The bikes need to be green sticker, right?

What night don't you have a class? This is really geared towards you, bastage. I don't want you owning a wrist injury after Porcupine Ridge or the
Slick Rock intro.
I'm free Monday night (and it'd probably would be better to do it before it gets dark too ;))

This Monday is bad. My mom is in town (she lives in WA) and is meeting my chick, so there is NO WAY I'm getting out of this one.

Next Monday is on, though.
BRING IT ON :D I'll probably be riding down in Aliso again on Sat too (not this one, but the following one)

Actually for now I'm trying to put in couple miles every couple days around town: Nothing fancy, just distance.

So did you go to that bike shop today?
