[digby]

I gotta be in oakland all saturday morning till maybe 1:30 ish, berkelys right next door so I was wondering if anyone was intersted in doing a group ride out there?

lots of shit to ride out there and I dont think we've ever been hassled.





except for by those damn hippies.


saturday 1:30ish 10/2/04

heres my cell: 530 680 3344

hit up amoebas for me nukkas

[Turtlehead]

Is anyone going to show up? Is it worth the drive from Santa barbara? I'm hoping to have a new bike by then... but we'll see when that actually happens.

[digby]

I have no idea. Usually phil is down to ride if its a weekend. Paul spends his time either in berkely or sf, so if his bikes working hes down to ride. For everyone else, I dont know so thats why i'm posting here.

turtlehead, werent you getting a new bike 2 months ago? Whatd you end up getting, another brisa stock? How was mammoth? I'm finally matching you for driving mileage. I think ive done 2400 miles or so this month.

[Paulsf]

I'm down for saturday in berzekly.

[Turtlehead]

Digby... you're not even coming anywhere close to my driving... if I average between 40-60,000 miles per year, that would put me at an average month of 5,000 miles... Looks like you'd hit 28,800 this year if you kept at your pace... but really, the more miles you drive, the better, so you'd better be at the Kernville event...
Ah... I finally ordered a Zoo... was supposed to get it by Friday so I could hit Mammoth... but, the "importer" forgot to ship some parts with it to Faction... so... still no bike...
If I have my bike by this weekend, I might well take the trip up to visit ya'll and ride.

[digby]

why dont you come up for lunch or something and i'll put you on my singlespeed and you can cruise around and bullshit with the rest of us. if your frame doesnt show up.

[jmkimmel]

I'm down for a hippie ride on saturday. Where exactly do y'all meet?

[digby]

paul, wheres that place we met on the last group ride with phil, the one where you showed up with pizza.

[Turtlehead]

I'm down with pizza...
Ha... your single speed? did you go and buy another bike?

[hophopsnap]

Kernville will be awesome I will be there. Look in the thread about pures in trials forum to identify me and my bike.

[digby]

naw, had this one for a while, got it used, just ride it to school and back. you are the only person I know that would make a 8 hour round trip drive for 3 slices of pizza

[jobottDMB]

If Justin or someone else gives me a ride consider me there. Otherwise I am without transportation.

[digby]

I'd offer you a ride, but i'm going down thurs night, gotta work fri, pick up my car at the shop on saturday and am most likely staying sunday too. Not sure if you wanna stay in the bay that long.

[aka Mr Floyd]

Hey Digby,

Won't be able to make that one... I'm up in Redding for a week to hang out with my new nephew and nurse my wounds from Mammoth.

Hopefully next time,

Todd

[digby]

todd, dont worry, I know all about nursing my wounds, I do it the majority of the year.

For berkely, heres a giant map of the campus, as you can see theres a lot of godamn shit to ride on. Last time we met at the springer gateway(left middle side of map) near university drive, theres some nice ledges to warm up on. I can probably be there at 1 or 2. sound good to you guys?

[digby]

[Turtlehead]

Doesn't look like I'll be getting my new bike by this weekend... soo... I'm gonna have to pass on this ride, but I'll definitely be making a trip up there the next time that someone wants to ride when I get my new bike.

[digby]

good ride, Its been a while since Ive crashed that hard.

[Turtlehead]

Sounds like a lot of fun to me... kinda jealous...

[digby]

yeah, it was fun, now my whole body hurts, feels like I got stepped on by an elephant. Pauls homemade wine is helping with that though.

[Paulsf]

I fell so hard on my head, that my ribs hurt. it was a fun ride though.

[Elan]

thats cutty as hell paul.
