Re: Orange County Beaches Ride. January 10th.
never had a problem. tomorrow, i'll buzz past some cops and see what happens.
i dunno what they'd think if a "gang" showed up, though.
one advantage, is it's probably gonna be cold, so the beaches won't be crowded.
i led a cop through Main street in Huntington during the summer for about a mile. i think he was more interested in the chicks than me.
the main thing might be stopping at bars. orange county's pretty harsh on all forms of DUI's, whether you're on a bike, skateboard, or in a car.

Re: Orange County Beaches Ride. January 10th.
it's all the same to me. if other people are interested, we can do it. if not, we'll do it up there.

Re: Orange County Beaches Ride. January 10th.
i hear ya. last thing i'd want is for anyone to get in trouble. next time i see a newport cop at the donut shop (or off duty at the bar,) i'll ask what he thinks about a bunch of adult children playing around on suped up mopeds in their town...

That's not such a crazy idea!!
If the cop says it's ok, remember his name so we can throw him under a bus if we get pulled over by another cop! "But sir, officer 'so n so' said it was ok to ride these here!!!"
