View Full Version : Bay Area Riders?
Any Bay Area begining riders wanna go cruise around? I only got 2 guys that I ride with...would like more folks. They get sick of riding everyday with me,so I think I need more freinds with bikes...haha. If anyone is down to ride (no high speed canyon runs...still learning!) lemme know!THanks...

You can always head down to union landing in union city right by hollywood video. All the guys i know are there everyday and their not haters their cool. There always down to kick it with new people (most of them are new ryders too). Good Luck
I rolled through there the other night...saw a group of guys with all new bikes...Hayabusa,R1,etc. All with paper plates still...my freind asked them if they wanted to go race...and they said they didnt race bikes,only their cars.
Dam...just went to the movies over there and there was HELLUV riders...4 R6's, 1 R1, Hayabusa with single exhuast!?, 900RR,Zx7,F4i,etc...at least 10 nice bikes...I guess thats the guys you were talkin about integrl?

if you're still learning...i'd highly recoomend a track day or a race school...we just had a track day at thunderhill this past monday. you can ride at your own pace...no pressure, no cops, no oil or gravel...it's pretty safe. i'd rather ride at the track vs canyons any day. we're thinking of having another track day in july. it's worth it and your learning curve increases dramatically...
That sounds like fun...isnt it rather costly though?

it depends on how you look at it i guess. i'd rather ride in a safe environment. we've ridden around the canyons and seen a lot of guys go down...and it's scary to think that you might get run over right after or even go off a cliff or something. at the track...you have none of those worries. so you're paying for piece of mind i guess. the cost is about $150-200 for the whole day (as many laps as you can handle)...and you need to have leathers or the appropriate apparel and the standard equipement. it's well worth it imho...i think the cost is worth it and the vast majority of the guys that you talk to who go out to track days will tell you the same thing...
Me and 2 of my other friends hit up Niles Canyon at least 3 times a week at night, you can cruise if you want.
That sounds cool to me...I sent you an email with my number...
Have a good time last night Mike? Perry is talking about going cruising this weekend.
Definitely a blast...Im gonna start makin passes throughout the day so that I can get the road down better...I had helluv fun though. Hope I didnt slow you guys down too much...LOL! I havent seen Perry in a while,but I know hes a pretty dam good rider. I used to work with him,and ALL the guys at work there have R1's,Hayabusa,etc. THere is at least 15 bikes there. Pretty cool. Oh well,hit me up and well watch Las Vegas Extremes...
