I don't normally take this bike on the trails. This bike is my fair to bad weather commuter. I did a short 4.6 mile loop at Red Rock Canyon Park. It's the first time I have taken this bike on trails since the shock upgrade and such. Did great! I might start doing the less technical rides with this one! Here are some pics!

If you get up this way to ride, let me know. I'd love to hook up with you guys and do a trail.

I was actually reading about a ride not too far from you called Area 28. Maybe I can get some free time and do that! I don't know what trails are up there.

Here is the Area 28 trail report -> http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.php?t=475717
