just got an REI update.
they're having one of their seasonal used clearances for REI members on the 4th.
dunno if anyone is into going, but it looks like it will be at ALL the sac area locations unless there's rain.
also, they're having a free bike tuning clinic on the 16th:
just FYI for you MTB crew heads.

Hahaha - I know it's your favorite.
We could do Olmstead again but there is a race coming up one of these weekends (don't know which). Quarry works too, although I wouldn't mind hitting up Sly Park.

Since it doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate with us this weekend I think I'm gonna take my bike in for service. I'm getting some shoes for my clipless pedals and I'm going to have my fork rebuilt (no service on it for 3+ years ).
).

Hey,
I'm sort of new to the area; grew up at the base of Mt. Diablo in the east bay and rode a lot.
Unfortunately in Elk Grove, things are way flat. Where are some nice xc trails in Sacramento County? I might even have to move if I can't find any good riding soon..
