    REH08/02/10Randy and I went exploring the track and played on the 4 cross track also. 
    Bruin05/10/10Tougher than the low elevation and short distance imply. Saw one other rider. Great weather. 
    Bruin10/15/09Great ride for the guys after the night shift. GPS mistook the direction at the midway point and shortened the ride. 
    Diesel07/17/0998 degrees and hot. Thank god there was a breeze.

    larace5103/21/09Southridge Race #6 
    JasonRichter03/16/09So, Fontana is not the cultural center of CA, but this is sure a nice little biking park. The xc route is a fun, twisty and varied terrain mostly single track course. Looking forward to the race. 
    osmarandsara02/13/09solo ride before the rain.

    surferguy24th01/03/09Great time meeting up with the guys. The course is great. They fixed a bunch of the ruts. Especially on the last downhill section. 
    surferguy24th01/03/09On the downhill section after Hurl Hill I broke 5 spokes. The rim was bent really bad. So I slugged it back in.

    DONALD JACKSON11/22/08lap 2 of 3 
    gassertrucks11/22/08SS 34 under 2nd place. First triple crown series. 
    Byron B11/22/08Well, rode my first official Mtn Bike Race. Registered for Open 19-26, however, decided to drop it down to Beginner. Best choice I made all day, 2 laps would of had me stuggling. Result- Beg 19-26- 6th / Time: 52:44 (not bad, first time actually riding the trail) Overall experience was totally worth it. 
    davidB.11/21/08easy lap showing a couple people around the course. SANDY. 
    Byron B11/21/08WOW! not a soul out riding the trail (bit scary when you ride the trail for the first and in the dark), thanks to donny he steered me to the start and had painted the way. THE TRAIL IS SLOPPY SANDY and very, very unpredictable on a few sections, watch out.. see you tomorrow if your racing it, my personal first mtn bike race, we'll see how it goes! 
    Peddler11/15/08Nice to do Fontana again. Was to busy racing to do it since the beginning of the year. Lap1 
    surferguy24th11/15/08Horrible first lap. I tired out Peddlers tubeless rims and tires. I blew it out right before the road. Put a tube in. Blew that about 4 miles later and then blew another tire right after that. Had to walk the last mile in. 
    surferguy24th11/15/08Better 2nd lap. No flats. Nice to ride with Peddler and Donald Jackson. Kept in the zone 1 and 2. 
    DONALD JACKSON11/15/08Rode with Arron for part of lap 1 Windy of course and a new no tresspassing sign. The course is the same, Sand-Ruts-etc... 
    DONALD JACKSON11/15/08With Peddler and Surferguy took a nice easy lap. Fire slowed my trip home. At Green river/Chino hills area. Like three different fires.

    davidB.11/13/08lap 2 with just Grace from STR. Finally cleaned that damn climb at the end of the lap. 
    Sjon11/11/08TDW night ride. Trails in bad shape. Hopefully they'll repair some areas for the xc race in 2 weeks. 
    osmarandsara10/03/08Rode with Karen, Sjon and Greg from TDW. Trail is rutted and sandy and a short sectioned of trail is closed-off so you need to detour. 
    Sjon10/03/08Rode with Oz, Greg, & Karen from TDW. Felt good today, course needs lots of help and some rain. 
    gassertrucks09/22/08lap 1. Still feeling Sat's Sart ride a bit. Decided to push the pace a bit for 2 laps. 32 x 18. 1:19 total. :39 / :40 
    gassertrucks09/22/08lap 2 
    surferguy24th09/15/08Oh Man this was hot! I even had to stop for about a minute because I was getting goosebumps. The place was in good shape this time. I was surprised. 
    gassertrucks09/03/08HOT, difficult day. Tired and fatigued. Stopped after 1 lap. 
    osmarandsara07/24/08Rode Southridge last Sat. with Sjon, Tim, Cedric and his 12 yr old daughter...she cleaned the entire course! damn at 12 I was picking at my pimples and barely just jumping off curbs.... 
    cruzoff07/14/08Some sandy deep ruts in the XC section, trail needs some TLC, beware of the poisin ivy my shins are shredded

    billstoudt05/27/08great single track i dont think i'll do this one alone again though. saw a pack of coyotes 3 rattlesnakes and a gaggle of gang members. 
    osmarandsara05/08/08XC course trails are rutted, sandy, and in really bad shape....the last (short) single-track descent just before the abandoned quarry is full of holes and overgrown with weeds...had a nice OTB....other than that was a fun ride, not. 
    gassertrucks04/26/0832 X 18 
    gassertrucks04/26/08Rode Rod's Scalpel 
    surferguy24th04/11/08The ground is really sandy and the trail is in bad shape. 
    surferguy24th04/11/08Lap 2. The last rocky section before the finish was really flattened out and very easy compared to the rough short climb. 
    Superjas1204/02/082 Laps

    quad damage04/01/08Last race lap. Not as fast as I would have liked, but oh well. 
    House03/31/08Warm-up lap from yesterday. 
    quad damage03/31/08Slow pre-ride with Doug and Jason. First time riding in Fontana. The course was trashed from the races the day prior. 
    quad damage03/31/08Went out too hard and blew up on the first lap. Need to pace myself better. 
    Friction03/31/08So Cal XC Series # 2 - Fontana - 1 Lap - Beginner Men 35-39 - Finished 9th of 10, but that's ok, because my training is making me stronger and the gap between me and the other finishers is getting smaller - I didn't crash, and didn't come in last, now time to set some new higher goals. 
    surferguy24th03/30/08I raced hard and got 2nd place in my class. I am very happy. 
    missclimber2203/30/08sport 2 laps. tough course great downhill. only fell 3 times. 
    rushak03/30/08Lap 1 of 2. So this is what racing feels like....ugh. 
    rushak03/30/08Lap 2 of 2. Expelled most of my energy on the 1st lap. Had no legs on the 2nd. Course was pretty tough and sandy, but had no mishaps. Finished 5th in my class. Need more training. 
    rushak03/30/08Pre race lap. 
    goldrunner03/30/08Great day considering: I couldnt get to my age category to start and had to start a minute after everyone else:( 2 OTB's, 1 upside down turtle & a lot of silt. Didnt finish where I wanted to, but I did finish and had a great time :) 
    goldrunner03/30/08lap#2 Kool watching the pro's afterwards.... 
    DONALD JACKSON03/30/08lap 1 of 2 XC 
    DONALD JACKSON03/30/08lap 2 of 2. A great day at Fontucky. 
    Peddler03/30/08Track was a little torn up from 3 days of racing. 
    House03/30/08Lap #1 of race. 
    House03/30/08Lap #2. 
    PaulV03/30/08lap 1 - made a few mistakes, didn't start in front and got squeezed out in the beginning, then on the 1st downhill was ruuning big/pretty big and chain was too looose and got funky, jammed in rear wheel bad when I shifted down for the 2nd up, had to stop and remove rear wheel and fight it. Bunch of people passed me, aaaargh! Reeled a few back in, but never fully recovered. yep, this is racing! 
    PaulV03/30/08lap 2 - this was much smoother. passed a few and kept up a good pace, but still was slower than I wanted (of course) , maybe because track was a little more chewed up? Put in a solid effort though, so was happy about that. also did super-d, was very happy with my performance, didn't win anything but I hammered it as hard as I possibly could have, don't think I could have done it any faster! 
    GARRETT GARCIA03/29/08Rough day, right at the start of the second lap my cleat in my right foot fell compelly out and couldnt find it, then with 4 miles to go to the finish line I got a bad flat,I did not bring a tube or air so I ran it all the way to the finish line. Was in second by about 4min or so and ended up taking third 
    GARRETT GARCIA03/29/08lap 2 of 2 
    PaulV03/28/08first lap - have never ridden the whole XC course so just checking it out and getting a feel for it 
    PaulV03/28/082nd lap- picked up the pace but got a flat by the paintball area, will have to hop or avoid the rock I flatted on. Glad I checked out the course. 
    DONALD JACKSON03/27/08Pre ride national course. Some additional single track parellel to the paved climb a few more turns at the start. Ans a few more surprises. Pro course has a diff section and the sand of course 
    surferguy24th03/26/08There was a bunch of companies already out there getting ready for the national. Some of the track has changed. At the long road climb it cuts off the road and goes along where the downhill section is but you climb it, then it jumps back on right before the top. After hurl hill (the hardest one) there is an alternate for Pros. Today I had the fastest lap I ever completed and I was not racing. 
    surferguy24th03/26/08I met a woman Pro rider from Canada so that was kinda cool. I looked for you WEFXUM but I didn't see you out there. The course was very marked off so I you should have no problem. The course was very sandy and loose. The second lap was catching up with me. 
    surferguy24th03/22/08Nice ride with team Sho-Air. Bummer for the new guy who crashed and broke his collar bone. 
    House03/22/082nd lap.
