Default Beach Riding

Very mild riding but I dont know if any of you have cruisers and ride along the coast. On the weekends sometimes I ride from Balboa to Seal Beach along the coast walk. Ends up being a decent amount of riding with more than your fair share of pretty girls everywhere. Usually stop around main beach HB to watch a little vball then continue on.

Lemme know if anyone wants to join sometime

Hey Jordan,

Let me know when you plan on going. We've got two cruisers and we usually ride from Balboa to Sunset, not quite to Seal. I might be able to ride this weekend since it's a road ride. I'll try riding around tonight, see if my arm can lift up enough for me to steer.

I am heading there in a bit with my friend Mike. Should be around main beach HB for the majority of the time. Feel free to give me a call if you are over there today 714-342-5801.

I like doing this as well. Sometimes I'll drive and park near Goldenwest in HB and just cruise south on the path. The scenery in the summer is amazing!!! Gotta cruise on your full suspension rig man, show off the bling.

Anyone know of anyplace that one can ride on the beach itself? I think the sand would make for a nice soft landing pad for crazy stunts.....and the pedaling through the stuff would be a nice cardio addition to the workout.

Id love to see you try and pedal through beach sand. Remind me to bring a video camera it'll be hilarious. lol maybe at the waters edge which you can ride on through most of newport and huntington i believe.

Well, maybe if you get a Pugsley you can ride on the sand. Jordan, I must have missed ya. We rode from Newport to HB pier, hung out and then back down to the wedge and back to the car. Beautiful day with great scenery indeed. I was the guy steering my cruiser with one arm.

Don't I wish. Nah, my arm was up against my chest in a makeshift sling. Still hurting, 2 wks down, hopefully only 4 to go. Brett I'll let you know when we're doing that again, probably in a month or so.
