Good News For Ponce's MTBikers
There is a new trail close to EL Hoyo, the parking spot is
besides the Ponderosa that is close to Walmart Super Center.
I already had enjoyed, soon I will post the Map and Photos.
I rode it close to two months ago, and is very, very good!!
Congrats to the guys who made it. At the beginning I though
it was lame...
but not this far from the truth... it has 5 miles, good views, and
some hills that
deceives you, the seems flat, but were looonnggg. Good, good
trail!
The Hole is Dead, Long Live The Ponderosa!

Videos of
Local Trails
Hi every body!
Even though my vacations were larger than expected, or larger that
I did like, it doesn’t means that I forgot you or the website.
I'd been riding more than usual, which is good for my mental
health. But my hands and fingers kept itching because I haven’t
updated the site. I had some free time and filmed a couple of
videos (my latest craze) and upload them in YouTube. For today
standards my video camera is monster big, very old, analog and
there is no way to hang it in my helmet. I tried to film holding
it in my hands... but I filmed lots of sky or dirt, not much of
the trail.
The main purpose of the videos is to show
the trails, which by the way can be very boring for the
adrenaline junkies. I have to clarify that by using the wide
angle, the downhills looked flat and 30 mph drops looks like 5
mph. Just see the video of Rincón
and ask your friends that had ridden it.

Sites that Rent MTBikes in PR?
Various MTBikers from the US had asked me about places to rent MTBikes in
PR. I think should be great to make a list of them. I
only know of two places. If you know of a store that rent
Bikes and or Have Guided tours, and has good reputation, pleas send me the information.
Thanks. Att. JGRR
Things to Come!
I will be updating this web slowly this and next months.
I am really busy at work right now! But I am leaving you
with a glimpse
of the things to come (very slowly)!
Ramey Base Trail ... 8th Hole!
(Has a new killer DH at the trail head!)
Starting
good the New Year, just 14 miles in 3 hours! ... just rained
the day before
and everything, EVERYTHING was covered with MUD in Cabo
Rojo!!!!
Sunday January 14, 2007. From left to right;
Wendel, Gregorio, Daniel, yours truly, Jesús and Daric.
Carlos and Iván... fed up with the MUD, had departed
minutes early.
Here we met Mr. Miguel Acosta Marini who generously send
this memento!!!
O
J O !
The
Boquerón Bird Sanctuary will be closed until

RESOLUTIONS FOR ... 2007
1. Teach other person how to MTB
2. Help maintain a Route close to Home
3. Do (and survive) the terrifying Down Hills in Rincón
4. Learn
to properly adjust the Dam front
derailleur
5. Ride more than 30 miles twice or more in a year
6. Visit Monagas, Salinas, el Hoyo, Guayama. el Correrdor
...
7. Write more for the web site and finish the
unfinished-year old articles!
8. Get rid of those grams (Kilos?...) mines, not my bicycle
(mines are lot cheaper)
9. Give thanks for everything!
I just sincerely hope that 2007 be better than 2006!
..........................................................
This Christmas season is a good time to put a halt in or
busy life that impede us to see clearly where we are standing.
We should step over a rock to try to see were we are coming
from, and we could seat over it to try to determine were we what
to go.
In this Christmas season we should be sure to count all of
our blessings many times and every time we can, because we tend to
forget them, especially in the hardest of times.
If the Magos de Oriente come today they should bring gifts
right for our present situation:
Peace, Family Warmth, Health and True friendship! Lots
of Patience should be another good one!
From our hearts, my family and myself want to whish you a Merry
Christmas!

One
more hill to go!
When
the spirits are low,
when the day appears dark,
when work becomes monotonous,
when hope hardly seems worth having,
just mount a bicycle and go out
for a spin down the road,
without thought on anything
but the ride you are taking.
Sir Arthur Connan Doyle, 1896.

There is a
fun short trail located in Bosque De Brenas in Cerro Gordo Vega
Alta. The great part of this trail is that it can be ridden
in all different weather condition due to the terrain. It consist
of single track with some fun but short downhill with some
good climbs. The location of the trail makes for some great
scenery along the coast line. Its good to due 3 to 4
laps and then due a fun cross country ride down to River in
Vega Baja. R. Tailor
Please let me now your impressions if you go there! I will be
busy for several weekends but for sure is in my "To Do
List. Thanks to Roberto for the Info!
