Just found this NG today and thought I'd introduce myself. My name's Darrin and I ride in Southern California 2-4 times a week. I'm 36 and this is my fourth year riding. My bike is a 2002 Trek Fuel 90 with Avid mechanical discs. I'm lovin' this bike, except the chain suck that sucks even though it's infrequent.
Just finished riding Big Laguna Trail and Noble Canyon in East San Diego County today with a couple of friends. Loving the pain I'm feeling now. Sucks I have to work tomorrow...

What type of cranks you got on that bike? Would they wouldn't be Bonti's, would they?

Chain suck on a trek? Wow! Ride it until you break it and then use your gig earnings to get a quality bike.

Several of us frequent posters here on this group rode Laguna/Noble last weekend. Fo me it was the first time out there since the fires. I was happy to see so little damage (relatively speaking) in the area from the fires.
The photo on the front page of your site reminds me of an old girlfriend I had. Well, except for the black bar across the eyes.
On another note (intended- sorry) where do you guys usually gig in town?

That's my current plan. Thinking of what XC FS rig I should get next. Leaning toward Santa Cruz. Also considering Rocky Mountain, Yeti, Ellsworth, Intense. What do you ride?
What I ride is not really important. Names is for tombstones, baby. What is important is that neither smellsworthless nor santa crud are bicycle manufacturers. They are only marketing and (sometimes stolen and often outdated) design companies. You never know who is really building their bikes. Stick with your notions of Yeti and Intense, unless you don't like low bottom brackets, then count out the Intense Spyder. If you were leaning towards a santa crud blurb hypecycle, ask Anthony Sloan what he's switched from one of those to. Riders ride bikes, not buzzname mass-marketed junk.

Unless he's changed his stock setup, they are.
(But I'll mention again that I haven't had chain suck issues on my old Fuel 90 or on my new Sugar, both of which have those cranks.)

They were until I bent one like a pretzel in a crash. I had to do an emergency unbending with a large rock just so I could ride out. Replaced with Shimano XT cranks.

Welcome!
Your band sounds pretty good.
Thanks bro. If you're in my neck of the woods when we do a show email me at darrin at tommyhomicide period com and I'll get you in the door. Same for anyone else here.
Rockin' and ridin'; That's what weekends were made for.

Welcome. JD hates your bike! (You'll find out soon enough since you mentioned the F word) 🙂
You know, I've seen a lot of people posting to various message boards that have this bike, so it may be more popular than I thought. I rarely see Fuels on the trail.

Yesterday was the first time I've ridden it. What an awesome trail! Saw a lot of burned forest, but things are growing back nicely. The scenery was spectacular. Rock gardens were very fun as well for the most part.

ROFL! Good thing it's an old girlfriend and not current. I've been there too with the psycho women.

We play wherever we can get gigs. San Clemente, Oceanside, Corona, San Diego, San Marcos. Our gigs page has a full history of every place we've played in the past two years.
