Hello sir, 

Im going to assume that to be 6:30 AM saturday morning and were not doing some type of noob night time ride. could you please let all the noobie noobs know where exactly to meet up? Im guessing the parking lot I have pictured below? Also, I have my brand new boa fang radio, i have no idea how it works though...should i bring it anyway? Thanks for putting this together!

That's the spot. Corral canyon OHV area. Parking lot at the top of the steep paved hill. 6:30 am. Ride once everybody's ready. Mellow pace and terrain.

I'm the fat guy in the black F150 with a blue Yamaha.

I also have a new boa f-ing radio and cant even turn it on. No need, never lost anyone yet on a newb ride.

Generally those are vehicles that get stolen and joy ridden the crap out of until they flip them.  I've seen them on that trail, and the old Bronco connector trail and trail 8.  Remember when that Ford truck was stuck out there for what seemed like over a year?

This ones not stolen and the driver got a helicopter ride Friday afternoon. 

They are towing it out today supposedly. Does AAA cover that?

They did a tow for me 20 miles out a dirt road when I lived in Montana.

I don't know about TripleA, but most insurance companies frown on offroad capers that end up like that.  That kind of a tow (off-road, difficult terrain) usually costs several hundred dollars from what I've heard.  My insurance policies didn't cover either of the offroad boo-boos I did with my truck and jeep.  They tend to cover a certain amount of miles, on regular sorts of roads.  When it ends up being a retrieval more than a simple tow, the cards are off the table.

Saw your truck.  We were the Nissan Titan in the SW corner. 

We had a good time too. A few drops for Mikey Jr. and some busted KLX110 parts...clutch perch, front brake lever, and majorly bent foot brake. The KLX110 parts are bottom of the barrel.

I once had to have my old VFR towed up a canyon off Lyons Valley. That was a $1100 tow bill. I ended up selling the salvaged bike just to cover the bill.
