San Diego's 8th Group Ride
- Thread starter hawaii_87
- Start date
The next ride should be at Grange in Apple Valley Oct. 22, 2011! It's not only a ride, you can actually race and then talk about how great your bike is.....rusty or not, lol!
You up for some competition boys? Girls? Girly men? Whatevers? Hahahahaha!
See you there!
It looked like you guys had a blast again. I was not able to make it due to a busted frame. I will try to make the next one. Maybe we could do a LA to Long Beach CA trip next time. Its a total of 60 - 70 miles round trip depending on the route we would take. I've done it 2 times now. The first trip I broke motor mounts and the second trip I broke the frame after putting in case hardened m8 bolts for the engine mounts. Here are some pics of my last trip to Long Beach:
I've got an appointment at the DMV on Friday to get my CA Plate. Hawaii, I will pre-run a TJ trip with you when you are ready. I'm ready to go International. We can cruise back through the car lanes on the bikes with no wait time.
The DMV is useless for getting a plate for your MB. The folks behind the counter don't know a thing about the legalities of an MB.
If you actually get someone there who knows what you are trying to do, you will become the first person ever to get that fortunate.
Print this out, fill it out, and sent it to Sacramento with $19.00.

Wait a month or so and your plate will arrive in the mail.
Oh yeah, use the bicycle's frame number for the VIN number.
For the engine number, add an "E" in front of it and use the same number.

You weren't going 25mph while taking these pics......you were standing oh so still! Sorry I missed the ride, was hiking in Torrey Pines with my youngest son and GF. Next time round maybe........
I agree; do the mail in thing! I mailed the completed Form 230 and a check for $21.00 (didn't know if the fees went up, so I threw in a couple of bucks more) on July 29th 2011 - got the plate and registration back on August 10, 2011. I used the bicycly VIN number and engine number stamped on the block.
Oh, and by the way it's the law. See CA Vehicle Code 5030.

I was thinking crossing the border at San Ysidro in the automobile lanes would be one of the greatest advantages for having a CA license plate.
Attention San Diego Riders!!!!
WERE GOING TO VENICE!!!!!
That's right. Oct 16 1030 meet up at the pier. "Well wait a minute. How are we getting there???" Well we meet up at Belmont Park in Mission Beach and we leave at 07AM SHARP!!! It's A 3 hour drive. I have a pick up truck and tie downs with room for maybe 6 or more bikes. I only have room for 3 maybe 4 riders in the back seat. So if we can get a car to help out with shuttling riders or a truck for more bikes that would be great. I volunteered myself to help, all I ask is gas to help get there. Guys let me know if you want to go. I'm driving an 20 year old truck so if we can get a newer truck with better gas mileage let me know too or if you have a van or car to help with riders let me know. Let's Ride!!!!!
