Im free most weekends for a ride.
I know we have more so cal riders than just use two. come on people post up
I would have loved to join you guys, but I think without an engine (still searching for one), I would not be able to ride along with you (read - push my GS) for more than a 100 yards :)
the date is not set and wont be until we get a good number of people wanting to go.
ill ride on the weekends with you guys
:thumb:
keep em posten.
Hey Nepix by any chance do you still have my yellow front fairing?
yes I do, Got the vfr instead of modding my gs
would you be willing to sell it back to me? Im looking at putting the fairings back on and painting her.

sounds good name your price
Im down.
importbabe I know two people use that UN but both you's are welcome to ride
I'm usually good for sundays.
I'm at GMR almost every weekend. Where are you guys planning to ride? BTW, any carb experts near Cerritos, Norwalk area, bike is out of action due to maybe a stuck float and needle.
I'm down in San Diego but still a noob to riding. Maybe when I get some more miles on my new toy I'll come out (if we ever get enough people).
I'm in new jersey for the summer, but if i get my bike all the way back to LA, id love to come along for a ride.
I would love to join you guys. I am usually available on all sundays and saturdays. Right now, I need two weeks to work on my bike. Starting assembly, valves, carbs, sparks, air filters, oil filters, brakes need some massaging 8)
Keep posting whenever you guys want to meet up and ride. oops, I stay at LaJolla by the way.
July sounds best should be great weather. sats work best for me but I could do sundays as well if needed. As far as location goes the meet spot will be neutral to the majoritys area. but may be far from some so a later meet time can be aranged for other riders. so where would you guys like to ride to? give me some ideas on a cruise, canyon run.ect whatever.
malibu! (im in the IE btw, san bernardino)
malibu could work the only problem is the traffic getting upto the good canyons
What kind of distances are you guys talking of? To be quite frank I have not anything more than 120 mi round trip :laugh: I am not sure if thats too little O0
I'm down, drop me an email. with the date, time, ride, riders, and direction.

.
from what few other members and me did was meet in newport beach and ride that to malibu then took a good pased ride down one of the twisties. if we did malibu I would pick latigo canyon i has some great turns and very few cars the few times I been down it. jack in the box is in that area and someother places for food.
Count me in for a ride over the Malibu canyons, how about the Rock Store for breakfast?
I would love to join too if its after 4th July!
rock store would be great just think a bunch of gs's pulling with all those SS and harleys GS LOVE and proud to sport
I'd be interested in doing a group ride. Weekends are good for me... I live in the Los Feliz area in LA...
ok I think Its time to set a date and organize the ride so far these are the users I have down to go.
Respite
Nikux
Nepix( hasnt ben only latley after his move)
Erbilabuc
Qwertydude
FlyingMachine(if willing to ride malibu)
Yenool
Joebothehobo
Astroaru
Mikesbike
Robbie
Mr.wikes
Fred
and Me
That makes 14 bikes if all show up
So this is my plan changes and additions can be made
We will meet at the wendys/starbucks by the hawthorne airport where they have sportbike night(W 120thand crenshaw) . and from their jump on the 105 to the 405 to the 10 to PCH than head up kanan dume Rd to mulholland hwy eat at the rock store hangout and when everyones ready we will head down mulholland and get back on kanan dume Rd and from their hit up latigo canyon Rd and back to PCH and we can stop at the closest gas station or big parking lot and say our goodbyes and we can go our ouw ways from their unless we pick a good ending location close to a neutral freeway. filling up before we go upto malibu is a must
Sounds like a lot of fun to me! Here is the google map for those of you who are as lazy as I usually am...

so If you look at the map provided by Fred zoom in on "A" we will meet in the parking lot on the right top corner lowes is across the street so What is a good date and time
No ideas on a date and time to meet?/ hmmmmmmmmmm
after i fix my oil leak and fuel usage problems? ;)
Im down! My weekends are always free except aug 9-10. Doing angels crest in the morning if anyone wants to meet in the silverlake area.
I would be down for a Mallibu ride.
We can meet on PCH and Latigo Cyn. I figure this would be a good meeting spot for people coming from Ventura county, like me, Los Angeles, OC, San Gabriel, etc. Go up Latigo, right on Kanan, Right on Mulholland, Down the Snake, then hang out at the Rockstore. Proceed onto Mulholland, Right on Cold Cyn, Take Piuma, Sheren, Down Stunt, Go back to the Rockstore to get water, Go up the snake, Keep going down Mulholland to the PCH then cruise by Neptunes net.
We can also take Decker down to PCH.

sorry guys for keeping quite. I guess I will not be able to join you because I live all the way down south and it is like 140 mi from where most of you seem to live. It makes little sense to drive all the north alone and join you guys and then come back alone. :bs:
If someone is doing a ride in and around the san diego area let me know. I will join in a heart beat. My bike is up and running now.
Any updates?
sounds like fun, count me in
Count me in

Any thoughts on a date? Mach1, you started this thread, i think you have first dibs. :cheers:
dudes and dudettes.. did the ride happen already?
I just got my bike back after the accident and its running beautifully!. I am itching for a group ride!
no not yet I have not had much time due to my sons birth but once my wife has more control of him( he onyl calms down with me) I can leave the house more Im leanin gtoward october maybe sooner a good saturday ride through malibu would be great not too hot and not to cold would make things even better
Sounds almost like a plan!
im up anytime bro...i stay in Whittier...jus hit me up on this post...
Hey, I'm in Hawthorne, too. Been a while since I've been around here, though. I'd be up for a ride. Haven't gone to the canyons yet. I always stick around PV instead...
whats up so cal, i'm in the SFV. let me know if you guys ride.
Yeah whoever is organizing should PM everyone who posted they were available.
Hey hey,
you can add another rider to the so cal area. I mostly ride my GS on the weekends, i'm waiting to get new brake pads :D
Hopefully there will be a ride soon? Maybe I can get some pointers on the handling, because it feels a little diff then what i'm use too (ninja 250).
:cheers:
long beach here, on a black, red, and silver 05 F.
i'm down for a weekend ride sometime - i know a guy on a ninja 250 who'd wanna join in too.
Awesome, hopefully soon. Mid October? Hopefully by then I'll have my new brakes and fork seals. I have a friend 2 a ninja 250 also, but she's a total newbie rider. So not sure if she can come ride w us by then. :dunno_black:
I'm excited already.
Been taking her out Sunday evenings before the sun sets and ride till it does...it's getting chilly but feels great to ride her...

Sadly i missed it...had other stuff that i couldn't get away from..planning to ride this weekend if the weather permits..
Finally got back on the bike after a long break. I'll be up on GMR on Sat mornings, I usually make 2 trips to the top and head home. Never seen another GS up there.
Riding season is here! And hopefullt this rain is gone for good!!! Anyone going on regular rides?
Hello everyone,
I ride almost every weekend, usually head to Julian and Borrego Springs. If anyone is interested in heading out there I am game. I leave early around 7AM and usually meet up with other riders in South O.C and head out from there.
Now that the weather is warming up I head up to Big Bear during late Spring, Summer and Fall, up until the snow begins to fall.
So it appears this thread has been dead for a while, but I'm new here and I live up in Northridge. Anyone nearby?

I live in L.A, pretty close to Inglewood. My GS is still down but I do have a second bike which I ride every weekend. I've been riding solo lately as I can't seem to find anyone who wants to ride something other than PCH which is not something I find interesting. If you want to head out sometime to somewhere with some twists and tursn in it I'd be more than iterested.
I am new to riding but i live in fontana. 909 baby!!!
Just finished putting my son's 93 back together. Will probably start riding Lil T Sat or Sun ... or both with him. I also ride the SM's with another group from time to time.
I tell you what I live in Bakersfield and would love to take a short trip to LA and do a BBQ or something...
I'm in Costa Mesa any rides coming up soon?
