Was wondering what the demographics of our diverse group of riders is and how we find time to ride?

Law School 5 days/week, but it's Pepperdine, so it feels like a weeklong vacation.

Freeriding is both

I've learned that riding is like Chuck Norris. You don't find time to ride, it finds you.

Mornings before work and on nights without concerts or rehearsals = practice time to learn new pieces for upcoming concerts. I usually ride Sunday mornings and Mondays.

Worked as a Realtor for last 6 years ... absolutely loved it. Helping people get into homes was very satisfying (no subrime loans!) This gave me plenty of free time to ride...Unfortunately, the market has gone into the toilet but it will return someday. Until that time, I now work 8-12 hours a day as a manufacturer's rep for machinery and only get to ride on the weekends or at night!
