Default Costa Mesa Rider

Hey everyone,
I just signed-up and wanted to introduce myself. I'm a rider here in oc and am looking for people to ride with. I have been riding for several years but I'm pretty slow-especially on the climbs. I'd like to get better so I felt that I should ride with others. Hit me up if you want to ride sometime, I have a lot of extra time on the weekdays right now.-tj

Slow climber here as well, all else fast, just climbing is slow, no worries. There are plenty of rides posted with all skill levels and speed, the environment here is warm and helping. Have fun!

Hey Yeti,

I grew up in Costa Misery. (I know it's changed and got a lot better). We have all kinds of rides south of you at Aliso every weekend almost and then there is the Fully Loop on Thursday nights, plus we have slower paced rides going on all the time. Keep an eye out on the home page and just jump right in. Please come over and introduce yourself and we'll give you a proper STR !

Thanks everyone. I usually ride el morro/ laguna wilderness or aliso woods. I used o ride whiting a lot but I think it's closed now. I've always wanted to do the fully loop nite ride but don't have a light. I'll definitely try to join some of the rides posted up though.

Hey I grew up [art of my young life in Costa Mesa as. I knew I liked you . I still live in Costa Mesa off of Newport and Elden by the old Stater Brothers and a stones throw from the Ali Baba Motel! Hey Sascq (no I am not going to write your whole name) I live in C.M. as well. Where do you live in C.M? I ride El Morro all the time so maybe we can get some rides in!

f.y.momma,
I live on wilson at harbor across from the starbucks. I've been dying to get out this week but the rain hasn't stopped long enough. Hit me up when you're going. I also do some road ridding on my track bike if you're ever interested.

I lived on both the east side and west side. Lived over by Orange and Cedar Pl, then lived on the westside by Dogwood, off Monrovia. Also lived on Broadway for over 15 years ( well, my mom did). Graduated from Estancia, but went to Newport Harbor too, also went to these schools, Rea, Kaiser, Pomona, Harper,Wilson, and McNally which is now BackBay or something like that.
