California: San Diego / SoCal meets

s2kenny · September 8th, 2010, 11:08 PM

Hey I haven't heard of any meets down here in San Diego so I'm thinking of starting one of my own with a couple buddies. I'm just trying to get a feel for the amount of people on this forum in San Diego.

So who's near-by who would be free on a weekend night to hang out and cruise?

I'm thinking Saturday / Sunday night sometime around 6 or 7pm.

I would like to hear some feedback from you local riders.

Cuongism · September 9th, 2010, 12:21 AM

I'd be down.

CZroe · September 9th, 2010, 03:55 AM

I work those hours.

There's always Mira Mesa Bike Night (Thursday nights).

Cali619 · September 9th, 2010, 02:31 PM

Im open for sat during the morning or afternoon, depending on the route. Sundays are a maybe since football season just started back up.

Rosie · September 9th, 2010, 03:02 PM

Too bad I'm a new rider and don't feel comfortable riding at night yet

Cuongism · September 9th, 2010, 03:30 PM

Seems like AM would be a better option?
+1 on football starting. Any other giants fans living in SD?

Blackwidow · September 9th, 2010, 06:08 PM

one day hopefully i can be privledged enough to ride with you guys...till then i can only continue to dream.

Cali619 · September 9th, 2010, 08:44 PM

I wont be able to ride this weekend or next , brake pads need to be changed and next weekend ill be out of town but after that im down to meet and cruise. Im not sure everyones skill levels but I am slow.....

Don't worry, we can schedule a day thing. I actually love riding at night, less cars, easy to spot headlights, and cool night breeze!

It's ok, I'm a turtle on my bike also.

Cuongism · September 9th, 2010, 10:08 PM

What roads were you planning to cruise btw?

During the summer it can get pretty big. It seems like huge groups of bikes will randomly choose to leave on an impromptu ride to it can go from a hundred bikes down to only a few in no time, but it looks like people float in and out all evening. From what I can tell it starts to thin out after 9:30PM but, depending on the time of year, I still usually see people around ~11PM. I'm usually just stopping by Albertsons on my bike and absorbing what little I see.

I only have about 300 miles under my belt

Hopefully someday I'll be comfortable enough for night riding, but right now it really scares me!

i can't get on freeways to get out there yet. i've topped my speed so far at 55mph...we all know freeways around here you gotta be at least at 75mph to not get rear ended. And i'm still in the break in period anyway, so no freeways for me quit yet.

Oh nice, I would love to see a 50+ group of motorcycles mobbing down the freeway.

Nice, a new rider! It will come with time, it's no biggie don't worry about it. Just remember to wear your clear visor and not a smoked one!

Oh new bike huh? The freeway is a blast when there isn't too many cars on the road with you.

Cazper · September 13th, 2010, 12:23 PM

I'm new to the area... little north of you guys at Camp Pendleton... but I have been known to go on long rides for no reason at all... might have to subscribe to this thread!

Dino · September 22nd, 2010, 05:51 PM

I'm up here in Mira Mesa. Should go for a ride around La Jolla or if you want some place nice and quiet with some twisties, I'd say Chula Vista (Eastlake area). I'm down on the weeknights or weekends

Cali619 · September 22nd, 2010, 06:09 PM

Im free this sat for a cruise, im on OB but can meet up wherever. If the weather is nice as they say it will be we should do a highway 101 for a chill ride.

Cuongism · September 22nd, 2010, 07:13 PM

I have this Saturday open this well, but busy sunday

Havok · September 22nd, 2010, 07:24 PM

I am in LA but would gladly show up for a meet and great. With this being the ninjette forums I think a day meet would work best for most people as there are a lot if new riders. I would prefer a Saturday but can show up anytime though this Saturday is a bust for me. I will be moving soon though that would not be an issue. I just need a weeks notice.

BLackwidow if you wanted to go I could run up to where you are and ride together. You ride your ride at your speed and I could trail behind so no cars up your rear so to speak.

djrbx · September 22nd, 2010, 09:46 PM

I'm down for a meet up. I'm located in North Hollywood but I think I might be going to Six Flags on Saturday. Just keep me updated and I'll see if I can meet you guys up

Cazper · September 22nd, 2010, 10:16 PM

I wouldn't be able to make it this Sat... going to check out Cruisin' for a Cure car show and then spending time with family up north. Still keeping my eyes peeled here though!

You have to cruise past me on your way. Let me know and if BW does t take me up on my offer we can ride down together though I may make a weekend out of it and get a room for a couple of day and hit the zoo up.

Cali619 · September 25th, 2010, 09:32 AM

If anyone wants to meet up for some riding today let me know, Ill prob be around till noon then hit the road.

Cuongism · September 25th, 2010, 09:35 AM

Where at?

Cali619 · September 25th, 2010, 09:42 AM

Im down to cruise beaches heading up the 101 and back, I was thinking maybe the 94 to campo from telegraph>otay lakes road but in the mood for a zen ride. when more people can go we can hit the 94 and even get some cool pics from "highway 94" photography guy thats there every weekend.

sorry for off topic...

OB is the same , locals , laid back, non glamorous like other beach towns

Cuongism · September 25th, 2010, 09:49 AM

Cool, I still don't know the area well at all so I'm down to cruise any place. All those roads and places went over my head

djrbx · September 25th, 2010, 11:04 AM

Okay, so it turns out that I will not be going to six flags today. So I'm free for a good ride out after two. Lets do this! We just need a time and place and let the rest fall into place. Oh, and probably a route

Godzilla35 · September 27th, 2010, 02:59 PM

HELP! yes, I'm spamming everyone from SD because I need help...
I finally found a ninja that I can afford, but I don't have a way to transport it.
I just passed my MSF so no license to ride it yet because it's in the mail and the seller has it registered as non-op...

If anyone could help me out, please email me asap kyug35@gmail.com with your number.
I need a truck with ramps / straps.. I'll pay you in gas + beer.
Chula Vista to Carmel Valley area....

I would totally be down with that EXCEPT... it's registered NON-OP which means it can't be driven till I go to the DMV and get it re-instated.

Ok no problem

standing offer should you decide to head out this way. I hope to do a mt. Baldy run in the comming weeks as it seems to be the easiest more laid back of the roads up there. I'll post when I go if you or anyone else wants to go.

Godzilla35 · September 28th, 2010, 11:00 AM

thanks Kevin for helping me pick up my bike this morning! proud new owner of a 08 plasma blue!

collector000 · October 1st, 2010, 06:33 PM

Hey I just moved to Rancho Cucamonga a few weeks ago, rode GMR today. I'd love to have some people to ride with. I'll watch and see when everyone gets together, hopefully I can join in.

Cali619 · April 17th, 2011, 11:29 AM

If anyone in San Diego wants to go for any weekend rides add me to your friends list and shoot me a message any time.

speedgsx98 · April 17th, 2011, 01:49 PM
