Title: Who's in San Diego?
Post by: rprata on June 25, 2003, 03:54:36 PM
I am.. and my bike will be here next week (either the 2nd or 3rd of July).  I'm looking for people/groups to ride with, see the good riding places, meet some local riders, meet/greet/eat/hit-the-seat kind of thing... anybody?

We should do an OC (Ortega Hwy) Ride once again.. then we can meet us SD guys too.

i'm north of downtown, up in the utc-la jolla area, right off the 5 by the big mormon temple.  with the sun finally back out lately, i just did a 2hr loop today, going north to escondido, east on 78 out to ramona.  this is a fun 10-15 mile ride, with some serious twisties.  reminds me alot of the nurburgring, for some reason...alot of trucks though, and i got caught in an suv-parade on the return trip for about five frustrating miles.  

coast highway is a fun trip, and i took that south from oceanside.  beautiful weather, surfers, girls in bikini tops & shorts jogging, etc.  all my friends back in CT are driving past small cornfields right now...suckers.

as far as a group ride, i'm up for it.  i've never done it, but let's go.  i do nightclub/bar promos, so my workweek is more of a wed thru saturday nights.  but i'll definitely show up whenever i can.  OC sounds cool, a bit shorter trip than the highly-touted LA canyon rides.

I used to run Ortega and GMR with a few buddies about a year ago.. since then, GMR has been closed, and the area's "hot" with cops.   :cry:

P.S.  Orange County representin'.

I'm gonna be down there around Mesa/City college area, attending whichever is closer to wherever I can find a room to rent prior to the new fall term coming up.

Gonna be on either an old vintage bike of some sort, a Yamaha motard or a GS and definitely up for group rides.
