Hello everybody. Name is Ian and I have a bike problem. I can be found abusing my legs around Long Beach and Visalia, CA. God help me.

My name is Mark and I'm new to the area, arriving from SoOR just before the new year. My riding, as it was in Medford/Ashland, is almost exclusively Commute! My current commute is just over 9 miles each way (Upland/Pomona/Upland). It's really my workout I guess. I have only one century under my belt and I'm open to suggestions on fun rides in and around the area. I ride a flat black Specialized Tricross. If you see me, wave -- I hate to be left hanging.

Currently training for a duathlon here. I usually do a 30 miles ride and 7 miles run on Saturday morning around Orange County (Anaheim, Garden Grove, HB) area. It can get pretty lonely just training by myself. Anyone interested joining a bike ride on Saturday early morning?

New to riding and I usually ride in and around Irvine / Tustin Ranch after work. Due to the sun setting sooner now and days' I've been packing the bike up and riding the back bay trail directly from the office after work before it gets too dark. I had no clue that trail existed and it seems to be a riders heaven, except for all the other riders using it lol.

I'm James Yang. I'm a Cat 3 road racer that loves to do everything by bike! I live a car light lifestyle-- I commute to work and do most things locally by bicycle. I have more miles on my bicycle than my car. I also am the retail store manager for Sho-Air Cyclery in Orange. If anyone needs anything bike related, I can help you out. :)

This is me at the Mike Nosco ride this year:

Hi Jimmy-- I just PM'd you. :)

Hey all,

Name is Brian, I been cycling ever since last year. I started cycling around July of 2014. I would cycle after work around my area (Torrance) then weekends in the morning. I would go beach and try to do at least 20miles or so. Since I get off work at 5pm, I haven't been riding on weekdays because of the lack of sunlight. So I would do it on weekends. I did stopped for a month or so over the holiday weekend and I regret doing that. Had to basically get my body back into it again.

Anyways, I plan to do more cycling this year. Perhaps double my mileage and what not. I live in Torrance and I don't have much friends that cycles. So I would always go alone... so yeah not much motivations. But i'm trying! I've always wanted to cycle through PV and what not... but i'm sure those uphills will kill me. And that's where I'm trying to achieve.

Would be nice to meet some people in my area that cycles... perhaps learn a few things from you guys.

Here's a pic of my Giant Defy... Instagram

SDBC speaks of 'Fiesta Island' on the home page of 'SDBC.'
But 'SDBC' has no actual interest in advocacy of 'Fiesta Island' --- as a source for cyclists.

Hi Everyone!

K here. I began cycling about a month ago when I purchased my first hybrid bicycle. I needed an alternative to running because I began to experience knee pain during my runs and cycling is perfect! I have been riding the paths in the area around Corona Del Mar and Balboa Island. Looking forward to riding the Back Bay trail soon!
