Greetings from Sacramento CA
Hi all!
Rec rider in my mid 40's. I enjoy the AR trail and the foothills in Placer Co. Looking forward to doing some century rides this spring summer. I've been riding a Litespeed Arenburg for the last 3 years. Very comfortable bike, but I have an itch for something in the compact carbon geometry to make the climbing a bit easier.

Howdy, Arenberg. I'll look for a Litespeed out on the trail. Welcome to the forums.

Check out the Sacramento Wheelmen. I don't belong, but I have a friend who's a member and I've gone on some of their rides. Good folks. Lots of rides, including the annual Sierra Century.

Welcome on board! I also have a Litespeed that doesn't go up hills as fast as I'd like. Unfortunately I know the blame lies with me (and my affinity for cookies) rather than with the bike!
