Hello - Shawn in Long Beach area. I recently purchased my road bike (12 Trek Madone 3.1 Apex) and prior to that was riding my FX. I commute to work when possible on my FX from the 605/Carson area to the LB Airport area. I ride on the SGRT frequently but have branched out to rides in the HB/Newport Area and have done the Back Bay Loop a few times now.
Move along....nothing to see here....anymore.
Howdy, Noel from the Arcadia area. I'd mainly been riding around my neighborhood and up to the top of Santa Anita til I finally got tired of my crappy old bike and got a new one (Cannondale Super Six 5) since then I've been hitting the Rio Hondo and SGRT doing out and back on the Rio Hondo or a loop of the two trails. Really Loving my new bike compared to the old one! The old one really did suck... but it was only $50, so what can you expect!

Hi- Brian from RSM- relocated from AZ and have only been riding in OC for about 6 months. Love the scenery and the weather, and cant wait to discover new routes. While most of my time is spent on a road bike, I also dig hitting the dirt, and cant wait to explore the abundence of trails in the area.

Hello everyone. I'm Davy from Rosemead (san gabriel valley). Just purchased a Takara Kabuto single speed road bike. I'm thinking of heading to San Gabriel River Path once I feel more comfortable with the bike.
Hello, my name is Eddie. I ride mainly around Castaic and Santa Clarita. I've had my Jamis Satellite Comp about 2 months ago. I rode for a while, years ago, then sold my bike. Now it's time to get back on and get in shape. I love the ride of the frame, hate the components. Might already be time to upgrade.
I'm in the Palm Springs area. I purchased a Trek 7.2 about a month ago and have really been enjoying it since. Thanks to everyone on these forums for all the awesome info!

Hey everyone. I am Tyler. I am in Orange, Orange County area. Since the beginning of summer I started riding a lot more often, at least one ride a day. Right now I'm mainly using a Specialized Hardrock but I hope to get a nice road bike in October. I ride the Santa Ana River Trail pretty often. If anyone around here has a group or wants to explore some new trails let me know. Thanks!

Hi there,
I am David and I live in Orange. Right now I am riding around on a Burgundyish Diamondback Comforty/commutery/hybrid bike. If I ever have money I plan on getting some sort of road bike. I've been cycling around for almost 4 months now and am really enjoying it. I have been commuting most places I can on my bike instead of driving and have barely put any gas in my car lately. I ride around the hills on the East of Orange and the various bike trails around here. I also commute to Costa Mesa via Red Hill or SART.
Hello everyone my name is Abraham and I live in West Covina . I'm new to the whole cycling thing. I recently purchased my first road bike, a Torelli. I've been riding it around my house getting used to it, but I'm real excited to start exploring and meeting new people and learning more.

Hello everybody.
My name is Al. I bought a used Univega Via Montega Hybrid off craigslist last year. It helped me lose quite a bit of weight...I realized I liked riding bikes, so recently purchased a brand new Fuji Absolute 1.4. I'm not ready to give up the old Univega...and I'm thinking in the not to distant future I might need to add a road bike, and a Mountain bike.
I ride exclusively on paved biked paths...I don't ride on the street because I don't want to become a hood ornament for an Escalade. I live closest to the LA River, and I ride that frequently, but It's not really my favorite path. I like the SART and SGRT best. I also ride Coyote Creek and The Marvin Braude trail...basically anywhere in the local vicinity
Hi. I'm still Tim, I still live in La Habra, and still ride mainly in La Habra Heights. I sold the Trek in the post above, bought a Lemond Poprad, sold that, got back into BMX (my childhood love), realized that I missed road cycling, bought a Mercier Galaxy from a buddy, wound up with my original Trek frame and fork, rebuilt it, and now I'm riding it again.Originally Posted by iamtim
Here's me doing BMX:

She had a hybrid bike and started riding to the beach on the SART with people from work. She decided that she needed a more effcient bike to do the ride and bought a nice Cannondale rode bike, not real top end but decent. I had always wanted to get into biking so I inherited the Hybrid and we started riding together. After a short time I bought a road bike. We ride mostly in the Redlands area, Greenspot road, or loop around through MEntone , upto Redlands Hopital etc. We have also done Yucicipa, San Timoteo Canyon and Loma Linda. And of course when we can we will do the SART, upto Huntington Beach. And go for a beer at HB Brewing Company.

Matt, most recently from Newport Beach, Irvine and Tustin, so I have traversed the Back Bay, San Diego Creek and Peters Canyon a few times to say the least. I typically combine trails to form an ad hoc loop from there with the occasional excursion north and south to the surrounding cites. Definitely the most underrated in the area is Santiago Creek, especially south of Hart Park. Its kind of for good reason as it dead ends in Santa Ana near the Discovery Science Center and underneath the 5 is pretty sketch. The perennial plan is to extend it, along some with restoration, to Fisher Park and from there via street to the Santa Ana River.
Haha. I am real and it seems like that other guys post is gone. I have since upgraded to a well used (dented) cyclocross bike that is green with red handlebar tape.
