James: Yes... I ride everyday. On one bike or another.

Travace: Is that me on the avatar: Yes... if my memory is correct at the 4 Aces H&H (where I can't recall) circa 1969. I was 13 on a Sachs 100 Enduro

SRAD: Uh huh... We ride here and there alright. Here is a few pics of a dualie ride we did last year:

Suzi Dude: We may be old, but we start young. Here is a pic of me on my first bike. I was five (1961). The bike was a cut-down Tahatsu 50. We were at a race track in Acton CA.

My dad's Montesa is behind me.

Dad was one of the first Dirt Diggers presidents and active in the club throughout the Corriganville and early Hopetown days.

I was a kid with wide eyes and wonder admiring a bunch of "hotshoes" hangin around the shop (Jack Baldwin Motorcycles) in Santa Monica.

I've got two WRs ( a bitchen and almost new 03 that I put up for sale <see ad here> because I can't ride em all, and the girls WR250R dualie), two CRFxs (Hers/His: both 05s a 250 and a 450), two KTMs (a Y2K enduro - My dualie and an 05 Supermoto) a SVS650 (the girls sportbike) and an '07 R1 (Why ? ...because I saw Star Wars when they went to "hyperspace" and I liked it) in the garage.

We're pretty much Cal City Camp "C" locals.

Live by the beach in Redondo/Torrance area.

Edit: And THANKS for the warm welcome !

Were you still a DDMC member in the early 90's in D37. If so, we probably know each other....

Ehh, you are an old guy. You're about to round a hundred here in a little.

Yall are a bunch of good guys though. My age group has a few tools that abuse the Box.

Wow... I musta been REALLY busy the last two years ! ...and I have. I was traveling every week, then retiarded (the wife calls it). THEN we decided to vacate So Cal and move to Show Low, AZ.

The stories are endless (as you might expect). After I get moved in I'll come and visit here more often. ...at least more often than a tw0year hiatus.

Thanks for the warm welcomes ! I guess I better subscribe or something.
