What I was getting at is that if I were to trust my ankles to a frame that I put together, I wanted to make SURE that I had the proper training to build a proper frame.

i.e. I don't trust in myself and my (lack of) welding skills to learn from some guys enough to build a frame that won't explode.

Plus, all the materials for the class are included in the price.

I don't know. I'd rather go to school.

When you look at the ride data, follow the sat pictures of the new area we rode. You can see all the forks we didn't take but also that there is a TON of stuff up there to ride!

hmmmm..think I got some PO. Small dabble on my arm and a dot on my face that seems to be going away after a vigorous application of tecnu.

I totally agree! Today's ride was super fun! :RockOn - not mine:

Exploring the new section was extra fun! It looks like if Mike and I had kept going on the side trail we did, we would have ended up in civilization. It also looks like there are a ton of trails off to the right. I wish I wasn't going to be doing trade show stuff for the next two Saturday's. I guess they will still be there when I get back.

With a bit more warning I could maybe join you. It takes me about an hour to drive to Granite Bay and about 30 minutes to Auburn area. Plus I need time to load the bike and put on riding cloths.
