    You drive up that canyon, park at the post office, ride down a little road, ride up some single
    track a ways, then ride back down it aways, climb up a road, then down some pavement to the car.

    Or you park near the general store, ride up some pavement and some singletrack, and then ride down
    some alternating buff and rocky singletrack.

    Or the best to me: put my riding gear on, jump on the bike, and ride.

    Er, let's see, that ought to take a few days of typing. Pick a specific area, or go look at
    socamtbr.com or one of the many SoCal mtb sites.

    I like Sycamore Cyn, Horse trails, 3rd tunnel, and suicide. Of course these are the ones I can get
    to in 5 min from my house.

  4. I find this site the best place to find that sort of thing.

  5. Ahh yes. Thanks, Steve. I definitely did not check there. (<--SARCASM)

    Let's start again. What are your personal favorite So Cal rides?

    If you do not want to join the newsgroup that is fine, but keep you UNORIGINAL humor to yourself.

    Yet another humorless top poster. You originally asked for the best ride with no reference for what
    you're looking for. Now you're asking for our personal favorite So Cal rides in an international
    newsgroup. Very rude.

    Damn, you're good! And I have barely touched foot around Noble having only cut across the top. I was
    just going by memory of other's descriptions.
