I put some 40mm tires on the bike and rode some trails in Chino Hills. It was great. I was a little wary at first because it was pretty bumpy and there was a lot of loose dirt/sand. I got used to it though and found some smoother trails. It was very peaceful. There were quite a few hikers and bikers but there were mostly friendly and most of the time I was alone and away from any traffic or houses or anything. I think I'll go back tomorrow.
I did have some mechanical trouble though. The rear wheel kept slipping forward. I am going to have to really tighten the skewer down. And the front derailer slipped down, apparently from all the bumps. I didn't notice it until I was out of the park and on the road. I went to shift back onto the large chain ring and there were bad noises. I fixed it, but I am afraid it may happen again. I'll have to look into a more permanent fix.
