As you might have guessed, the trails are in pretty bad shape right now with all the rain we've been getting.  Though it's hard for me to tell you not to ride, I encourage you all to stay off the trails if they are muddy.  Not only does it make a mess of your bike, but it can also ruin the trails you and I love so much.  So take it easy this week, give your bike a good cleaning and have it ready to go once we dry out a bit! 
If you do go out and ride, be sure to post a comment here so that everyone can stay updated on the conditions.  Thanks!

This site was conceived one afternoon while considering the possibilities of having an organized community of mountain bikers in a city. There are so many of us mountain bikers here in San Diego and each of us have something to offer one another.  I can't begin to tell you how many riders I've met out on the trail and I believe that if we have some sort of a way to connect and share experiences and knowledge, our community will grow exponentially. 

The two main goals of the site are to encourage mountain bikers to ride new trails and to link groups of riders.  It's always fun riding someplace new, but oftentimes we just don't know where to go.  You'll be able to find trails all over San Diego County with maps, directions, reviews, and pictures.  If you want to get involved, submitting a trail review is a great way to help out!
Secondly, as I said, I want to provide links to other riders around San Diego.  It's always nice to meet new people so on the Rides page, you'll be able to find different groups that ride all around the county.  I encourage you to meet up with some of these groups.  Additionally, you'll see a box where you can submit your ride to be put up on the site.

I don't want to drag on and bore you all, so check back to the site often and participate.  The success of MountainBikingSanDiego.com depends on our community, so lets make this happen!
