San Diego Spyder Ryders Roll Call

[QuadManiac]

Thanks to Magic Man's current contest, I see that there are at least 5 or 6 SpyderLovers members in the San Diego area.

I'd like to suggest that we all check in here to get acquainted, and then see if we can get some informal weekend (or even weekday - miss the traffic) rides going. Places like Jacumba, Julian, Palomar Observatory, etc., come to mind. Or, if you're into Casinos, there's a plethora of them here, just about all with a fun ride to get there....

Whadda y'all say? Check in and be counted!

Hey,

I am from San Diego. I live in North County between Rancho Santa Fe and Rancho Bernardo. I have been on a few of the West Coast Spyder rides and Meet N Eats.

Consider me checked in! :thumbup:

regards,
Arjay

[QuadManiac]

Thanks Arjay. Are you in Crosby or in that interesting area south of it - that's going through significant development now, or somewhere else completely? I live in Penasquitos... so not too far. My Spyder resides at my G/F's house in Lemon Grove, however - no more room in my garage, lol.

Now let's get some more here... I know you're out there!

[Pincushion]

I live in San Diego also, (Normal Heights)
I ride with West Coast Spyder whenever I can.
My wife rydes with me (as a passenger) when her work doesn't get in the way.
I would love to ryde together sometime.

[Lamonster]

My Mom still lives in El Cajon and I try and visit her every year. I lived there till 2002 and then moved to East TN. Maybe we can hookup next time I'm there. :doorag:

[adohring]

Quad,

I am just east of Crosby and just west of 4S Ranch. Its one of the more recent development called Del Sur. Not far at all from PQ.

We should definitely try and get some rides together. So many of the WCS rides are all day or all weekend affairs, those are hard for me as I have two little ones and they wont fit in the trunk. :dontknow:

But shorter riders like Julian or Palomar and such would be great.

We should definitely hook up with Lamonster next time he is out here as well.

regards,
Arjay

[SocalT]

Defintely up for some local rydes, available most anytime

I am always looking for a ryde...
This weekend I have two all day type rydes "Rip's BAD Ride" on Saturday starting in El Cajon and Berts Mega Mall "Canyon Cruise" on Sunday starting in Covina....
No wonder I have almost 11,000 miles in less than 11 months...

[SPYDER4FUN]

I think that ( Berts Mega Mall ) " Canyon Cruise " is on Saturday Pincushion ............:yikes:
I am going to try to go on that if my Spyder is out of the shop ... she's getting a new GPS ( gear postioning sensor )

Oops, yes you are right ... I had it backwards....Berts is Saturday, Rips is Sunday...

Seen your Bike at NCHOM on Saturady, headed there tomorrow for 600 mi service and other fixes

[powerbyaj]

O-Side

[QuadManiac]

Fantastic! So far, we have:

adhoring in Del Sur

Pincushion in Normal Heights

powerbyaj in Oceanside

QuadManiac split between Rancho Penasquitos and Lemon Grove

SocalT in San Carlos

SPYDER4FUN in Vista

and I'll include Lamonster who will be in El Cajon occasionally


Would you all be interested in PM'ing me with an email address so we can have a way to easily arrange rides, etc.? I won't share your addresses with anyone else in the group (without explicit permission), and will use them only for the purpose of arranging Spyder related get togethers.

I understand if you're reticent to do so; you don't know me and so no hard feelings if you decline.

Hope to hear from you,

QM

[CRUCIFIED]

And when you all decide to head North on the 15 let me know...unless its on a Sunday.:lecturef_smilie::pray:

[SocalT]

Anyone interested in doing a run up Palomar this Sat. we will probably have a mixed bag of spyders and hogs. Up and at em by 0700.
PM me if interested.

Tony

[QuadManiac]

I'd love to, but I'll already be up in Ramona that morning for another unrelated event.

[SemperFiSpyder]

Purchased my RT a little over a month ago and looking forward to meeting other local owners. I'm currently out of commission due to the clutch re-call, but looking forward to riding in the future.

[SocalT]

Looking to see if anyone is interested in helping me do some "minor" corrective surgery on my RT-S. I installed some ESI light kits about a month ago and all worked fine for awhile, not it appears all to be kaput. Suspect a short in the new wiring installed. Anyway I'll provide the beer/pizza and laughs if anyone is interested. La Mesa area.

You get this resolved yet, Tony?

[SocalT]

Thanks for asking, Multiple problems all minor. Trust me when you have a bad battery/loose connection, shorted esi mud flap lights it can seem like something major is wrong, DPS faults, steering locks. In the end removed the blinker portion of the mud flap lights and replaced the battery. All is good now.

Thanks,

hope to see some of you guys soon

[Tripod]

Fun Bike Center - great guys.

[Ken5517 / Wish Again]

Fun Bike Center - great guys.

Some of the managers have changed - this is good.

I have been talking to them about the future, however they still have Aaron the spyder mech. and he is pretty good.

[QuadManiac]

I have also been impressed with my minor dealings with San Diego House of Motorcycles, but was just for a scheduled service and the DPS software upgrade last year... they seemed on the ball, attentive and met their estimated timeline for this.
