      @@NoBrakes23 thanks for sharing. He must be something else. Hulda Crooks is the only trail system where, when I post about it, an individual trail builder’s name gets mentioned so regularly. At places like Greer, San Clemente, Simi Valley, Santa Cruz off-menu trails, etc. the trail builders tend to remain under the radar.

    Haven't ridden there in litterally 25yrs. Nice to see it's still going strong. Been thinking of going back out there paying homage to the trail system that got me started mountain biking so long ago.... and nearly took of my finger.
    Short story - inexperience, 5ft drop to flat on hard tail while wearing my wedding ring. It snagged the grip as my hands slipped down. All good now just a nice scar and fun story to tell.

    • @mtb_alan

      Assuming a moderate pace, it's probably 15-20 minutes from the parking lot to the top of Scott Canyon and then another 10-15 minutes to the top of the ridgeline that drops into Sith.
      Have a look at the Trailforks links in the description if you want to see more details on the trails.

    Hi Alan. I was just thinking of a good video I might make. I am no expert Mountain Biker and that is why Sycamore Canyon in Riverside is a great skills-building location with short climbs. However, I was introduced a section directly next to Sycamore. From a hill close to some bunkers that are fenced off and belong to March Airforce Base there are 3 trails called the Amno Trails. The trails are shockingly about a mile long and made for Intermediates and Beginners. Doing a few laps gets you to 7-10 miles. Then from there, you can cross Alessandro and do the Zig Zags, Zipidedoeda, and other single track over there and get a good 10-25 miles.
    Want to meet up and I can show you where the trails are? They can be hard to find.

    • @frankramirez4818
      @frankramirez4818 3 года назад

      They got jumps, rocks, and go-arounds built-in. Perfect for beginners. Also one of the fastest Flow Trails has a white ghost bike for a memorial of someone who dead 2 months ago because someone left a wooden drop.

    Great video as always, I slow down your full pulls to really get to know the trail before I try it. Quick question, with full face helmets getting so light, do you thing more people will start wearing them full time? I see Katie (sp?) always wearing one.

    • @mtb_alan
      @mtb_alan  3 года назад

      Thanks! Hope it helps. Keep in mind that that was my first time on Pinball, and there are some things I'd do a bit differently.
      re: full face
      I see more people with full-face helmets. They're always gonna be heavier and hotter than an open face, but helmets like the Proframe that I wear or the TLD Stage that Katy has are light, breathe well, and make full-face more doable for pedally rides.
      Hope that helps!
