Ok, so here is my introduction. Definitely new to mt biking and looking to get good at DH. Im pretty stoked and willing to meet and ride. Keep in mind, Im new--couple of months only so know that I might not be the fastest. Just need a patient Yoda to show me the ropes. Im in Montclair and willing to drive out to meet. Cheers!!! :wave:
