......for moustaches, traffic, fat texans, cigarette smoke, traffic, the least amount of bike trails and the farthest from the lift access dh:D

tahoe city has the worst traffic around. and you've got your fair share of gamblers up in them parts.

hey rockbike, you have a little bike? lots of good xc rides here.
Hay, i don't have a little bike but i road the power line trail in good style yesterday. (if you forget about the huff-en and puff-en as burning lungs tried to get O to my oxygen starved legs.)

i would like to do some DH runs ASAP. there's trees up here.

You should for sure come out to North Star this weekend. There will be a huge group of us there all day on Saturday. Send me a PM and I will give you my number if you wanted to meet up with us. =]

I will be out there looking pretty much just like this:

You can hang out in the parking lot of Burger King at the base of Kingsbury Grade with your fullface and big bike and I'm sure you'll meet some people... :wave:
But your best bet this time of year is heading up to Nstar.

Some of us are riding after work tomorrow out at Corral... you're more than welcome to join us. It's a ride up paved road, ride down trail with some little hits along the way. We've got more, but I'm not telling on here.

The P-Lines trail is about as XC as you can get around here.

what time were you out there? I ended my run at around 5:30? Were you the guy on the top of ski run w/ crazy shorts on?

i'm really hoping this thread doesn't turn into how AWESOME the north shore is and how touristy the south shore is.

the dude just wanted to find someone to ride w/ down here.
