Endurance.Net Ridecamp Archives

It is all relative folks..We have higher living/housing costs here in CA, 
yes. We have the best weather here, and more rides/public trails. I happen 
to be fortunate enough to live where it all started, in Auburn. Anyone who 
wants to come ride the Tevis trail....come on out..we have room!

We have overcrowding in some areas (easy to get away from though IMO), and 
too many lawyers!

I love the people in the South..I have had many clients in TN, KY, FL, TX (I 
know, not really the south) and they are just REAL folks!

We are all such a melting pot, especially in this sport where the trail and 
the distance/speed we chose is the real playing field!

Let's all just go ride!
