Re: [ST] Santa Ana, CA?



Yeah, it's not always easy to find folks willing to loan out bikes.  That's one thing I really appreciate about the Hawk List folks, as George K can affirm.  I've had the opportunity to ride several bikes through the Georgia mountains, loaned to me on the Gentleman's Agreement (bring it back whole or pay to make it so).  One of those loaner rides was a 955 S3, which sealed the deal on me finding a Sprint ST.  
 
Not to say that the Sprint listers aren't as trusting a bunch, but I always feel funny asking near strangers "hey, can you loan me a bike for a day/hour/quick ride?".  
 
Worst case, I'm looking at a mid-winter game of golf.  It's currently about 7 degrees F here at home, so Santa Ana will be a nice "vacation" even if I don't play or ride!

I am in Laguna Hills, 5 miles from Santa Ana. Anyone else in the South
Orange County area?

If I had two T's, I would definitely let you ride one Jeremy. There is a
small (getting smaller) group of us here in the South OC. Don Draper
abandoned us; we are wearing a little thin. Looking for others to ride with!

Jeremy.

You're a long way from home.  What brings you this far west?

Zoltan, Ken Thompson, Marc Danziger and myself all live reasonably close.
>From our area to Santa Ana is, depending on traffic, a .75-1.25 hour drive.

Getting together for dinner then sounds like a good idea.  Of course with a
weekend thrown in, some sort of a ride would make sense, too.

NO, I'm not calling one.  With my lack of organizational skills, I can
barely show-up at events that other people plan. 

Zoltan, on the other hand.......................

(Like how I throw Zoltan under the bus?????  I'm good at that.)
