I got into Mountain Biking about 15 years ago and have met quite a few of my friends through that, most at the trailhead. dorba.org has a list of local trails.
You have to have something in common to make a friend. I mean, if you start talking to Jean at the grocery store about what’s her favorite vegetable it will get awkward pretty quick. You might even have the police called on you.
