Hi all, I am from BC and will be spending 4 months in the Pasadena area. I will be there around late January, and staying until early May. I do not know where exactly I will be living, but I will be working in Pasadena, so hopefully not too far.
I was just wondering what kind of biking there is down there.
I will be bringing a road bike for commuting... I also have a Specializd Rockhopper that has just been for basic commuting (but I could use this as a cross-country bike). I also have a Norco Shore 1 for freeriding/downhill, which is more of what I'm into.
I like to do jumps and drops and things and am not sure the Rockhopper will hold out as my primary mountain bike... but I do not know if there is enough freeriding to justify bringing the Norco. I will have a car.
Any thoughts at all? Thanks!
P.S. I am also not opposed to selling what I have and getting something like a smaller travel dual suspension bike. Thanks.
