Hi all...

I'm in the UK at the moment but I'm going to be coming over to San Jose to do a 3month internship this summer. I dont know too much about the riding in the area... obviously I'll be bringing a bike :o)

I guess the biggest decision I have to make right now is which one to bring since I dont know what kind of riding I'm likely to be doing. I've got a hardtail (Orange Evo2 /Fox Floats) and a a full sus (Orange Patriot with Vanillas)... what do you reckon? What sort of riding is there in the area and a bit further afield? I'll have a car so I dont mind travelling a bit to get to the good stuff. I like riding pretty much anything from XC to DH...... but I guess I'll be doing more XCish riding while I'm over here.....

Any help would be appreciated!

Cheers

Pete

i second the patriot, theres lots of good trails around, pacifica, UCSC, calabzas for DJ's, well, the list goes on, but yeah, the Full suspension would be my choice
