A few buddies and I are trying to plan a trip from Canada to San Fran to watch the supercross race at the end of Jan. We also want to ride some DH if possible...

Do we stay around the bay area and ride or do we go further south? Where are the best trails?

We're looking for shuttleable trails and will have a truck. Anything remotely close to a beach would be awesome since all the water here will be frozen.

I looked in the regional forums and found most people talking about AM trails.

Thanks,

Rob

I guess I should say if anyone wants to give me some info they can PM me.

I get that some areas have issues with access and user groups and need to keep there trails under the radar.

Pacifica is a well known spot and the closest real trail to SF. Santa Cruz has some great trails and a couple of okay shuttle-able trails. Both close to the water.

Santa Barbara fits the bill. 360 days a year of perfect riding weather, beach, hot college girls/great parties, and world class hike/fireroad/shuttle trails.

Edit: send me a pm if you want to be shown around a little.
