If you are around Topanga, private message me if you want to ride some time. I am retired and getting back into mountain biking now that I have an eMTB.
I am looking at eMtnBs in the north west area of Los Angeles. I am 70 and mostly road bike now - I am the slowest regular rider going up the hills on Mulholland Hwy. I would like to get back into mountain biking, which I rarely do now as I now need to walk many of the steeper dirt hills I used...
