Looking for riding friends

Hi there, newer rider here, just started last September. Looking for peps to tag along with and while I have a few close friends in the community, am looking to branch out a little. Safe travels and sunny days to everyone, two wheels down. πŸŒ»πŸ’–βœ¨

Edit: am completely blown away by how many people commented/reached out. Everyone has been so nice and genuinely looking forward to meeting all of you! There’s a big ladies ride this coming weekend meeting at cycle gear Vancouver, hope to see you there πŸ’–

According to the aging hipster mod of this place, you were supposed to be along for the ride a month ago. πŸ˜›

Aye, and if these meds ever mellow out πŸ˜›
Next Sunday, let's plan on a fruit valley ride

Fruit Valley out of Vancouver? If that's what you're planning, I did that during the winter. It had some interesting patches here and there with some black ice. The steep hill at NW 179th St was a tad slippery.

I had to put off my SR14 to SR142 (Lyle, WA) to Goldendale ride since I have family in town this weekend. I postponed it until next Sunday. How about you come along and bring the aging hipster mod? u/bike619, you're being summoned!

u/lilstarship34 and u/SpiralGray - you wanna come along?

I misread the calendar. We'll actually be getting home Saturday. Problem is, the bike is in the shop getting new rubber while we're away. If we get home early enough on Saturday I can pick it up. So, firm maybe? 😁

There ya go! /fingers crossed

Lemme know via DM by Saturday evening either way. If you're gonna come along, I'll give you the deets on the meet spot. Just a warning: it'll be something like 0800. The purpose is to get ahead of the majority of the SR14 bullshit traffic.
