August 26th 27th and 28th.

I have to do wedding stuff with the future in-laws but I have sunday (The 28th) free to ride. Anyone wanna show me the local trails? Conrad? Let's ride.

Cool. You better be ready to hike.

Ciaran

08-10-2005, 01:49 PM

I'll hike, I'll push, I'll ride. I just need to get away from the in-laws for a while! ;)

After riding we can hit some bars and such. The inlaws are in Ocean Beach. Lot's of good bars and restaurants.

hey count me in on that ride. if your in OB you have to go to hodads at least once :drool:

Ciaran

08-10-2005, 05:56 PM

And now that I am finally getting back down to OB MikeD is gone.

Where are you guys at, anyway? I know the area fairly well. We go down quite a bit and I used to live in Lakeside for a while (armpit of the universe).

Isn't Lakeside like the meth capital of the world? OK Ok, it's a close second to El Cajon.

Dude, I'll go riding with you guys! That would be fun! I'm not far from ocean beach.

I'll be down this weekend and have Sunday free to ride. The less pedaling the better but I do have a granny gear. :D Conrad, show me your spots. TJ, lick my balls!

Sweet! I swear I won't get trashed the night before and over sleep :( .

I'm from Compton but I can ride Noble in the AM and then dick around southeast SD -the more inhibited side of El Cajun.

Alex966

08-22-2005, 10:59 PM

Well maybe we should all do a Noble ride, a friend that I ride with who is not on here, would probably be down to go and he has Toyota Tundra, so if we get a few vehicles we could SHUTTLE noble! Yaay Shuttle!!!

lovebunny

08-23-2005, 11:37 AM

ok im in ill drive someone. conrad?

Ciaran

08-23-2005, 11:53 AM

I'll have my car so no one needs to pick me up or anything. All I need is directions. Yee haw!

You guys better not kill me. I am still developing my wings and I see you guys flying through the air with the greatest of ease. :D

ncrider

08-23-2005, 12:46 PM

We won't kill you, but the heat might. A super early shuttle at noble might be fun and then off to several other locations.

Orvan

08-23-2005, 02:35 PM

Early Noble ride.. then snacks
then ATT... then fat lunch

then let's see if we can clip TJ's tail tucked between his legs somewhere in the southeast trail. Hint: just fronj it.

Otherwise, I'm doing an XCish ride.

Alex966

08-23-2005, 06:55 PM

awesome early sunday shuttle!

Orvan

08-25-2005, 02:25 PM

So is this gonna happen on Sun or gazillion excuses for not being able to ride will come out prior to the weekend?

8AM at the bottom of Noble. Buy your adventure pass pls and bring some bells for the bikes. The bigger the cowbell, the better. If you ride an Intense M1, no bells necessary.

I'll be riding in southeast SD afterwards so anyone is welcome to join...

What was that? I couldn't hear you over all the noise :D

8? Lets push for 7am.

You know it'll be 8 before the whole crew shows up and gets to the top. Then we should move out to the east county. After that move west and sample some shuttles at Willy's place. Bermo-orma could be fun, but I'm guessing beers will come into play before we make it that far west.

Ciaran

08-25-2005, 08:54 PM

I'll be there whatever time y'all decide on. Already have an adv. Pass.... And yeah, beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer! Beer good.

Alex966

08-25-2005, 10:15 PM

So 7am!

TJ, could you come pick me up dude? My car isn't working right now! My friend Gary and one of his friend's will be meeting us at the bottom trailhead!

BMXman

You can ride Noble fine without bells...I have never used a bell there in over 4 years...D

MikeD shared with us a story once...he said that you will never ride Tunnel or Santa Barbara because of the bike bell thingie.

just saw this. ill be there, never riden noble. Can i buy a pass that morning or should i get it before hand.

ncrider

08-26-2005, 11:11 AM

You can buy a pass there, but if you can get one now that might be best.

So lets settle on a time to all meet at the bottom. I vote to compromise at 7:30am. How's that sound? That means you'll probably have to be on the road by 6-6:30 depending on where you live. First shuttle will be loaded up and heading for the top at 8am.

You must have a full on melt down when you go to Vegas.

actually I used to go to casino's alot and never had a problem...my doctor says he thinks it has to do with the complete silence and only hearing bells...vs. casinos which are have a ton of different noises. I want to go on the ride but I just hate bells...I think I will hit up Noble later in the day when it's cooler and there is less traffic on the trail....D

Orvan

08-26-2005, 01:14 PM

D, how come you never ride with us?
We don't do a whole a lot of pissing contest...except when lovebunny talks up the storm about how he kicks anyone's ass.

I'd 8am.. I won't be there until 8AM..

ncrider

08-26-2005, 03:06 PM

It has nothing to do with you guys...I like riding with you guys...I just work to much. After I wrote my last message I found out I have to work on Sunday from 7-2:30PM...so even if I wanted to go I couldn't. I'm going to try and hit Noble tomorrow after it cools off. It's 94 right now here in La Mesa so I know it's even hotter out in Alpine...D

08-27-2005, 05:48 PM

If you're going to hit up Hellpine, you better do it early, it was 103' by 1:30 today. It was fine until you dropped in, then it was baking!

08-27-2005, 06:56 PM

Well I'd love to go riding with you guys but I don't have a ride now, becaue my normal riding partner is not going. Unless someone wouldn't mind picking me up in National City!? Talk to you all later!

ncrider

08-27-2005, 10:28 PM

Oh. bummer Patrick. Well, you could take the trolley to Qualcom. We could pick you up there. Give me a call if you can pull that off.

So we're all going to meet and load up at the bottom around 7:45 -8:00am. It should be hotter than hell so the earlier we get riding the better.

See ya all there. Good times!! :D

Alex966

08-27-2005, 10:38 PM

Hmm... that's a good idea, I'll get back to you guys in a few hours! Or I'll call ya Conrad!

Lt.Dan

08-27-2005, 10:43 PM

ill be there, hungover from midnight madness most likely. People should go to that tonight, street riding until the wee hours in downtown.

Orvan

08-28-2005, 12:07 AM

all hell.. bring your single-ring Karpiel Army-gideon Super Monster T mothership deathstar rig, a full face and full suit tomorrow...

I'll try to be there by 7:30ish..by 7:50 and noone's there, I'm riding up....not!

lovebunny

08-28-2005, 01:20 AM

well conrads coming to my place at 630. so well be on time. bring me a guac burrito! ill pay you

Alex966

08-28-2005, 02:03 AM

Alright so I'm either gonna call Orvan in the morning, or I might try and take the trolley to Qualcomm. Also does anyone have a chain tool? I think my friend still has mine from the last time I went riding with him, I need to take a pinched link out of my chain. Alright I'll be posting back a lil later! :)

Ciaran

08-28-2005, 06:36 PM

Tons of fun! I only crashed twice... once on the big log, and once while I was standing still. (Don't ask, heh heh.). Thanks for the riding guys... and the awsome burrito. :D :thumb:
