Anyone ride in Auburn? Did the Confluence trail today, 17.3 miles and it was awesome. Lots of jumps, hill climbs, downhills, wall rides.

Sounds bad ass. What does it run to use the trails? Is there any type of wait?

you'll get better, also if your riding a full suspendo you will want to adjust and set your suspension up correctly. took me a few rides with really good components to get mine dialed in. but then again My front forks and rear shock were $1550.00 OTD. LOL

You can get bikes that have the rear suspension lock so it's like a hard tail. Mine I can switch between soft for down bill or hard and it acts like a hard tsil
