What up!!!! I'm 100% in for Tuesday. You tell me when and where... either place, I'll be there! Let me know. Sickness

The weather should be nice this week and I'm looking for someone to show me around. My first ride was Otay last Thursday. I'm open for suggestions for anyone who may want to ride during this week. (28th-1st) Putting this out in advance for you all to ponder. See ya

It's 10am on Thur and the ride has been confirmed as a GO. The details are above.

I'll confirm this ride for sure at around 10am. (thur morning) Two of us will be meeting at the Lark canyon picnic grounds at noon. (McCain Valley) I'm a newer rider so the pace will not be blistering for sure. (my introduction to sand also) Weather should be mid to upper 70's with around 15 mph winds. Again, check around 10 to confirm. This ride should go so take this as your advance notice Take care

I would highly recommend that you NOT be working then Both days should be super sunny. Mail me when you get it sorted. Peace

Mellow = testing with the GSA in Corral Canyon, most likely I will be slow and working way to hard... even the new guy (You) will likely be bored. SO there will be riding and there will be single track, but the speeds will be mellow Roger that! New guy is sending ot a big 10/4 solid copy... over. Talk to ya toward the end of the week. Thanks

REALLY mellow ride.... ='s drive to location, remove bikes, put on boots, talk about bikes, re-load bikes and go back home. Or not quite that mellow I'll keep my eyes open for ya on the first. Thanks for the heads up.

Me too....and I shall have them again someday.

Come on now..... 74 people have looked at this post and none of you are riding this week?????? Fo realz????? This kid is ready to go! (I think) I want fun, skinny trails.... Ya all let me know

Is this a place that would be suitable for a newbie? If so would anyone mind giving me directions to it or showing me around. (if weather permits) Open for suggestions. Thanks

Super sorry about the bogus late reply to your question. It's Monday now..... I'm just learning my way around this site and computers in general. I did not see the second pages. My bad!!!! My 1st time to Otay. I really only found fire road to ride on. I did 55 miles of that. Sorta dangerous out there with all the Boarder Patrol Agents driving around. I was going super slow and they would come whipping around the corners not expecting me at all. I crossed about 20 vehicles and maybe 50 agents. They were all friendly so that was good I guess. The Ladies in the Thousand Trails general store were super sweet!!!! Of course I was nice in return; after all, I was using their parking lot. I had fun but felt it was a little boaring. The views and photos were off the charts. Crazy beautiful. Hope you did get to ride and sorry again for the late response. I'll work on that! Keep me in mind for a ride somewhere along the way!

Thanks Dave. I'm keeping on the look out for people who are going. Not sure where to ride or what my skill level is yet. I will have to "compare" to others as I start getting into some group rides. Measure twice, cut once! Later

I know you're already out riding and having fun. Just to let you know I'm avail to ride most days during the week and can do it on pretty short notice as well. Keep me in mind. I'm new to this and would love to have someone show me the ropes. I live in Carlsbad; close to you. Take care.

Hey all... Well I made it. Bummer that no one could show. I pulled off the solo world tour with zero hitches. Had a great time out there. Thanks for all the advice; I had a really good time. See ya

Hello everyone. I'm going to be there at 0900. (thousand trails) I will check the forums again in the morning to see if anyone else reads this and wants to or can show up.I'm open during the weekdays to ride so please keep me in mind for future mellow rides. Remember; this kid is new to this. Again, thanks for all the advice. I'll be checking again in the morning just in case someone can show.

Let's see.... A prison, Border Patrol, watching my speed, not going down any hills I can't get back up and taking along several emergency numbers to call.... Good thing I didn't post for an intermediate ride!!!!!!!! Wahooooooo

Ok, I found it on the map. Still would like someone to tag along with. Thanks for the safty advice and recommendations. I guess the only other advice I need is for the parking situation. (where to park and is pass required) The camera will be locked and loaded! Many a photos to be had

Oops...As you were... Thousand trails

Do I need any type of special pass to park my vehicle at the "thousand oaks" place?

Thanks for the tips on where to find inexpensive gear Uncle "C". I did find a sweet pair of boots on C List. I went dancing in them last night for St Pattys day and they did not hurt my feet at all! Yesterday i practiced changing tubes and tires. Actually I just pulled out the tubes that were already installed and just added some baby powder to them. That sure was a good time.... I can't wait until I have to do it on the trail, 100 degrees, bike laying on it's side! I may just keep my helmet on for the added training effect. Either way I can tell It's going to suck. At least I'll be ready for that day. Catch you all on the flip side.

I've fallen and I can't get up; also computer El letter eight. Living in Carlsbad and looking for something to do when the surf is small.... Soooo I bought a KTM 450 EXC and now I'm hunting for deals on the gear. Boots, helmet, blah blah blah = big $$$$$ Anyhow, I'm not a rider but I will be. I didn't say a good one... Looking forward to meeting, learning the ropes, and having fun with you all. I'm sure I'll be in the bushes if you're looking for me! (upside down of course) Hoping this post goes to "introductions" section, if not I'm sending an advance sorry to admin. I'm super receptive to advice too. Thanks all.

Thanks to all who have welcomed me. I'm still working on getting all my required gear together but looking forward to actually riding it rather than it just sitting and looking cool! Fortunately the surf has been keeping me good company until I find a helmet and such. I'm not really looking to get out and go wide open; more in it for the views. The Wed ride that was posted looked amazing. I want some of that! All in due time I guess. For now I'll keep tearing it apart and putting it together. I will not be that guy on the trail standing there looking at someone else to fix what I just broke!(i hope) Whatever the weekend brings for you all I hope it's fun. Peace

I've done a lot of Mountain Biking and I've watched motorcycle riding on TV.... I think I'll figure it out quickly.. or die! Lol Thanks for the welcome aboard.
