Ride night!

Random question, but how do you guys meet people to ride with? Although naturally a loner, sometimes I do actually like to ride with other people. I tried putting up a M4M post on Craiglist but didn't get the kinds of rides I was looking for.
Have you tried waiting behind a tree and jumping out in front of riders ?

no, it just ends with a loooooong climb.

I can ride something after work today. Holla if you're around.
Unfortunately my bike is at home at the moment. I'll probably ride Marshall Mesa tonight out of convenience, as unexciting as it may be. You are more than welcome to join if you wanna drag my out of shape self around the joint.

If I had grips and bikey stuff with me I'd consider joining. Alas, I do not.


A thoroughly improper deflowering of a new stead. Mike can go eat a bag of dicks.
He feels really bad about it, trust me.

Fkna.

Did a local ride up with the hopes of traversing to another local trail down. Got almost up and found a shit ton of police with their big guns out, asking us to politely stay out of their way while they go into the woods to find the jackass who was shooting a gun, on one of the most crowded trails around, during the post-work rush hour. :disgust1:

Go to unaffiliated local muffler shop and have them put in a generic cat? No way it should cost that much.

Parts and labor and hell no I don't go to Volvo, this is an independant shop, plus this in CA, non OEM or approved equivalent is considered modifying the emissions system...a no go. At 14 years old I am required to go to a special smog testing facilitywith the Volvo to prove the car is not a gross polluter, they check it with a fine tooth comb

Well, that sucks. I'm generally a fan of CARB but not when it leads to this.
