Ride them a few times before driving yourself nuts.

rotors and pads need to bed together.

I bought a hard tail frame used off Craigslist to make a dedicated Zwift rig with the plan of turning it into a winter ride.
I paid cash somImhad to go to ATM to pull out enough. I took a spray bottle of IPA and sprayed they keypad before use, and sprayed my hands after.

WhenI met the seller I opened the back of my truck, and placed the money on the tailgate.

The seller came out of his garage and placed the frame and parts on the tailgate and took the money.

We each inspected our items and away I went.

When I got home everything was again sprayed and wiped with IPA.

I would not take a child on a Downieville run, Like BZ said once you’re in there’s no bailing out. The Auburn trail system is really close to Sacramento and has varying degrees of difficulty. You can find something that works for the whole family.

However. Since you’re coming all the way from Atlanta I recommend you find a way to spend  a day at DV. It’s only a 2 hour drive from Sac. Yuba Expeditions , and DV Outfitters have rentals and shuttles.

You can easily drive up , catch 2 shuttle runs, and drive back in a day.

Not so easy on mobile. The selector doesn’t scale so the photo icon is off to the right and you have to go fishing for it. This is on Android / Firefox, and it rotated my photo.

I recommend downloading several apps for finding trails.

Singletracks has an app

Trail Forks

MTB project.

They’re all good for different reasons.

The MTBR Norcal forum is a very active space. There’s weekly rides posted for Bay Area all the time.

I haven’t spent any time in the East Bay riding bicycles so I’m of no use.
