Announcing a new Meetup for Southern California Mountain Bikers!

What: GMR / Monroe Truck Trail

When: Saturday, February 27, 2010 8:00 AM

Where:
GMR Staging Area 2
Glendora Mountain Rd and Big Dalton Canyon Rd
Glendora, CA 91741

Imagine this folks: 6 miles of super fun downhill action for just a few hundred feet of easy climbing. The way down is a mixture of fire road, double track and single track and is totally doable for an experienced beginner (not newbie). There are no major obstacles, drop offs, etc. It's just pure FUN! Now consider doing that three more times in a day in just a few hours. It's totally possible!

Whether you have a hard tail, full suspension, all-mountain or downhill rig, you'll be fine. Any mountain bike will do.

Since we'll be doing our own shuttles up the mountain, you'll be expected to help out with transporting bikes / people or both up to the top.

Please, no carpools - we need the extra vehicles!

Pads are not necessary, but if you have them, bring them. Same for a full face helmet - nice to have, but not necessary.

If 8AM is too early for you, you're welcome to come to the second run. Each run takes approximately 90 to 120 minutes. We should be back at the bottom around 9:30AM.

If you have a radio, bring it. We're on channel 7/7.
