OC Downhill MTBers

agreed on telonics. that is my nearest most aggressive trail. i live 2 minutes away from Oakley (edison trails). which have been mowed down by bulldozers as they are building new homes there. that used to be such an awesome training ground... a super steep gnarly trail and a bunch of different size jumps to practice on. too bad its gone now.

here is a shot from earlier last year. i was still on my old Norco Atomik. i think this was taken a few months before i picked up the Glory. fuck, makes me miss this section of "Dragons Back" aka Steeps

 

Shoot oakley would have been nice. I heard they ticketing ppl at telonics since its not considered a legal trail

 

i have heard those rumors forever. never once have myself or any of my buddies been ticketed. so obviously we keep going back.

 

Luck is on your side. 4 of my buddies got ticketed by a ranger hiding on the bushes.

 

I remember Oakley, dragons back is the best trail there. I stuffed my face out there at Oakley on the wood drops they had and snapped my leatt brace in half... I'm gonna miss that place.

I've heard that, but never seen it...(knock on wood) telonics is by far my favorite up there... Silver surfer would be fun if it wasn't rutted so badly. I was REALLY disappointed the first time I hit that trail. The rut in the center of the already narrow line could definitely lead to a really bad day...

Editne two many face palms on that one... (Stupid iPhone...)

 

haha, duuude. totally agreed about silver surfer. omg. i was so excited the first time i rode it too... but then it turn to shit when my whole crew were just tripoding the entire line.

man, i want to ride so bad now. you down to hit a couple of the aliso trails this coming weekend? fiveoaks then lynx or rockit.

 

By the way oct 25 last day for bb

 

that season just blew by this year! damn...... glad i didnt get a season pass. i havent even made it once this year :sad:

 

yes please. Be advised, I am BY NO MEANS an excellent climber...

yea, bummer. I will be making a trip up before then... I'm running out of time to ride before I have to give it up for a little while, so I HAVE to ride

 

You know what, now that I think about it, I'm even more stoked on this idea because I just cleaned and dialed in the dirty girl yesterday at the shop!

 

whats up strangers. people still riding in here? i am selling both my 2007 Norco and 2013 Glory0 if anyone is interested shoot me a PM.
time for an upgrade!

 

Yo look at what the cat dragged in



No more new bikes this year

 

nice man. post pics after install

 

If i can find a decent price installer . Know anybody?

 

Install yourself. Save the money. Should take a day to do.

 

Lol only have 14-17mm wrenches to do oil change. Now bikes i can do lol

 

Lol. yea. you'll need a little more tools to do the work. But It can all be done with hand tools easily.

 

i had my coils factory installed by tustin toyota (i bought everything from them including wheels/tires, so they hooked me up a little bit on labor) and i got a warranty. pricey sure. but it was easy to where i ordered everything, dropped the truck off in the morning and picked it up on the way home.

i had pick up parts in MV install my leaf pack... and i dont recommend them at all. i had a bad experience the whole time. i had buddies go there and have good results, but a one day job turned into a 3 day job for me, for just a leaf pack and alignment. so eff those guys.

 

Biker went off a cliff on Friday on Telonics. Saw the copter when I was at Aliso that day. Wonder which part of the trail it happened at.

 

Bigbear opening next month finally
