Hey Oilcan,

Loren from the Central Coast here. My apologies- I missed your reply back in August, an let me know if you're still up for doing some riding. I have a bunch of goals for this spring, I'd love to get out together, and one ride in particular (a big loop in the southern Los Padres out to Don Victor Valley, which is about as remote as it gets in SoCal) calls for a partner.

Fell free to contact me directly: loren@lompocbikeworks.com or 805.865.6708

Let's ride!

Best,

LOren

Hey Matt!

Stoked to hear from you- thanks for your response. And my apologies: I tried to reply a couple of days ago, but my message apparently got lost in the aether. In any event, I'd love to get together for some rides- the Baja Divide and the Rambler are on my list, as well. I usually ride in SLO a couple of times a month, and grabbing a beer and planning some epics sounds great! As an aside, I don't know how much riding you've done in Big Sur/Coast Ridge Rd/Nacimiento-Ferguson Rd/The Indians, but there's a ton of cool stuff back there, and with all the water this spring this would be a fantastic time to get some exploring done (and it's equidistant-ish between Monterey and Lompoc).  

Feel free to email/call/text me directly: loren[at]lompocbikeworks[.]com or 805[.]865[.]6708.

Be well- I look forward to meeting up soon!

Best,

Loren

Howdy,

I'm a fit, experienced rider/bikepacker. All of my erstwhile partners have succumbed to the allure of the couch, and I'd be stoked to find some like-minded folks to get out with. I live north of Santa Barbara, I spend a lot of time in the Los Padres and Big Sur, and I'm always up for an adventure. I have a couple of specific projects for this spring: Pasadena Metro->Mt. Wilson->Strawberry Creek->Gabrieleno Trail->JPL->Pasadena Metro in a day; and, in the Santa Barbara area, Lower Oso/Paradise Rd to Ojai and Ventura via Camuesa and Jameson Lake Roads, also in a day. Beyond that, there's a million other possibilities, and I'd love to hear your ideas- let's hatch some plans over a beer!

Loren
