CHICK FREE RALLY!

Since us guys are not allowed to be in Palm Springs during that time, we might as well have a little fun of our own!

Friday night 8pm
Meet and Greet at Dancers!
7094 Miramar Rd # 115
San Diego, CA

10pm ride down the coast to Pure Platinum!
2431 Pacific Hwy
San Diego, CA

Saturday
10am Amercan Shooters Range
location posted later
be sure to pack your weapon of choice this weekend or rent one at the range!

12pm or so... Lunch at The Bull Pin (next to Cheetas)
Clairmont Mesa Blvd, a few miles down the road from the range.
8105 Clairemont Mesa Blvd
San Diego, CA

3pm ride to the Buck Knife factory in El Cajon for a tour!
(need to confirm if factory still open or outsourced to China, if closed will substitute for another man type activity)

8pm dinner and pool at Hungry Stick
4664 Clairemont Mesa Blvd

Sunday
8am breakfast at IHOP on Prospect Ave in La Jola followed by a ride up to Mt Soladad a few miles a way to hang out, check out the views of San Diego and say are fare wells before we head home with our tails between our legs.

Events and Rides subject to change.... And unlike that other rally taking place, you can bring that special someone if you like!

P.S. This is a just a joke so don't blow a fuse, but if people would like to organize such an activity, lets do it!

Laughing emoticon An All-Boys Scooter Rally: an excellent opportunity for scooter-mediated male bonding. If you're so inclined, go for it!

No flaming coming your direction at all-- I'd just say that there's a place in activities that are conventionally boys' domains for some women-only spaces. This forum's co-ed format works just fine. Another site I've frequented (along w some others on MV), www.beginnerbikers.org, has a women-only sub-forum, with lots of support from the (male) admin and boys on the list. It's a supportive, informative space where some women pose questions they might feel intimidated to ask in the full forum-- and where no one holds back in discussions of road warrior fashion. 8)

As for the AGSR, there's a place for it. Just sayin'!

Peace,

Oh yeah! A ride to Sears would be good too so we can ogle over all the cool chrome tools! Too bad something like TOOL TIME isnt filmed in San Diego, that would be a great event!

Sadly the Buck KNife factory is gone.. a victim of the California Tax code. They moved to Idaho.

Hahaha, well.. I did start this off as a joke, but it would be kind of fun to do! There are camping areas along the coast in various spots of San Diego County, as well as mountain and desert areas too.

I don't think I would be the best one to oraganize things and track down sponsors, but if someone would like to run with this idea... PLEASE DO!

I was thinking of a manly camping trip while getting to SD and staying at The Fairmont.

Manly as in no tent, just the skins of squirrels and possums that chose to cross the road at the wrong time in front of my shiny red scooter clawing its way over twisty two lane black asphalt that is so hot you can see the heat rising towards the heavens, and the squirrel meat in a spicy sauce made from the unfortunates that collided with my darkly tinted visor and gleaming white teeth - and no vegetables, the whole weekend. Yeah no vegetables....

(Anyone else read that book about Eustace Conway, The Last American Man?)

Would we want the kind of sponsor that would sponsor something like this?

Yeah, pretty much saying that we won't be rude like the rally and ask people to leave. That is if we become an actual rally! Need to have some girls around to keep us in check! Don't need to have us riding around in just our helmets and boxers!
