    el corte de madera

    Yea, at El Corte that was the most uphill I've done so far. I was riding Russian Ridge all week, able to do more and more uphill each time I went up there, and then at El Corte I pushed it and rode all the uphill on the single track. I'm still horribly out of shape, so I had to make sure I just...

    places to ride in the peninsula

    the drops seem like they'd be fun to practice on, as long as they're nothing too crazy. i'm not big on dirt jumps either, i have the jumps by the bay which are only a couple of blocks from my house (i recently found out they are called "shells"), but i never really go over there. can anybody...
