calling all newbs

Recommended Posts

I'll try to get the boys out to lark around 6 or 7 a.m. Beat the heat... Shock n Awe and Jaynen; We can have a mini dirtbike 101... There is a large sandy area and some whoops for practice:

a lot of short trails, and 99 per cent of it is totally easy... a good place to practice some skills.

I am NOT a qualified teacher, so don't expect anything except some pointers and a little good natured ribbing... : )

I am going either way, so if'n anybody wants to meet up, post so I can expect you...

I'll be there, if TrailTech gets Mr Bill back to me by friday. Only one of his eyes were burning on Walker's Annual Nightride.

Hey- that's pretty good (former copyrighter)

WALKERS ANNUAL NIGHT RIDE

Start on your bike, ride home in the meatwagon!

j/k, Gary- thanks for the kind words.

I may be able to make this one. It's been a while since my bike has seen dirt. Make sure to watch for the CHP sitting on the top of the hill right before you head into boulevard. I got a ticket there for doing 90 when I was heading to McCains one summer morning around that time. :i-m_so_happy:

well obey the law, like I do, and you appreciate the CHP more :ph34r:

Tree; what bike will you ride at Lark? Won't your desert sleds be overkill there, or do you know stuff I don't? I'll be in the official riding area with the kids... not likely to explore the "plated" options around there...

You need a light during the day? :(

I am confirming spousal approval right now... If I end up bowing out, you'll know who wears the pants in the family :ph34r:

Count me in. My Blackberry is (619) 756-5002. This will be good practice for my re-match against the boulders at Corral Canyon.

I've been to Hungry Valley about 4 times, and up to Oakhurst once so I have ridden the DR-Z a few times off road I just want to get more comfortable and make sure I learn good habits.

Sadly I won't be down in SD until late Sunday afternoon as my MSF course is in Santa Clarita this weekend :ph34r:

I better not show up or someone could get killed :ph34r: Although Alex and I still have to climb the hill and do stoppies on the big rock there at some point.

But don't worry, I can't get up at 6 even if I was getting paid.

I knew I shouldn't have sold all the reliable KTMs :ph34r: . If I get the 570 back in time I'll join you (that's right, I said 570. My new philosophy is "burn up a motor, buy a bigger jug") :(

Sounds like a pefect break-in ride...

But don't worry, I can't get up at 6 even if I was getting paid.

My limbs feel safer already :(

Where's the "whiney girl" smilie? Ozzy; I know I ruined your day...sorry about that; stuff kept piling up...

BRP has a new back tire, pool is back on track, wireless internet working, but the van still needs an oil change...

Yeah; I'll be there whether the boys come or not...if the boys don't, I'll bring the drz, if they do, I'll bring the tw... I might even bring the xr with trailwings, just to see how it does...

If the boys don't go and you want to go, I can pick you up at 0515- eww...that sound ugly!

Where do folks generally set up- by the trees? At that hour, we should have our choice.
