If a lurker falls in the woods and no one is around to here him, did he make any curse at all? Sorry...couldn't resist. :p I am not a lurker, but I'll show solidarity by checking in, anyway. Hi, I'm MErider1, and I'm a BFaholic. :D

I guess I qualify as a lurker, though I seem to be posting a bit more

I guess I'm a lurker. I am trying to post more. I guess I'm posting more because there is ice on the road, and I can't be out riding!:mad:

I guess I have been guilty of lurking around here lately. In fact after looking at the stagecoach picture thread I'm pretty sure I actually saw a few of you out on the road Saturday. :) Spooky! My fiance and I were out there on our Silver Santana road tandem. Yes we froze our butts off too.

Anyway, Hi from Mark the lurker from San Diego.

Hi Mark :beer:
+1 - welcome. And Big Draft, you are NOT a lurker! :rolleyes: ;) But come on, the rest of you, speak up! Lurkers expose thyselves! :D

EDIT: Oh, and welcome to you too, BrianG79. Yeah, it's hard to ride with ice! :(

Of course, you can lurk and be local. Of course, I'm hoping you'll transition from lurker to So Cal ride joiner. Is that too much to ask? :rolleyes: ;) :D

Yes, I admit it! I'm a lurker. Been following all the escapades of the OC crowd for the last few weeks. Living in the desert, don't get out your way to ride too often. ME, Brandy, Tiffanie, I hope to meet you in person one of these days. I am signed up for the Solvang Century (not the double yet!)

You definitely aren't a lurker! When one visits So Cal, they can no longer lurk in any way, shape or form. :D

Desert? Which one? We were all in Joshua Tree and Ocotillo - how many more are there? :p

Welcome. Our orange crop has been destroyed. We will be paying Japanese prices for oranges this season.

To state the obvious, the SoCal forum is much more active than the Southeastern cemetery (http://www.bikeforums.net/forumdisplay.php?f=234). I wish we had more regional interaction going on.

Yeah, right. :rolleyes: I'm from that very same belt, and there are many notches on it that only those living there know the story of...southerners know how to have a good time! Too bad your region hasn't picked up yet, but keep posting in it (and here, too), and eventually a group will form. :)

Visiting the forum a bit more and tend to lurk more than post. Baby steps!! :)

It's prob tough for the southeasterners cuz that's a HUGE area covering tons of states-- if you see folks located in your area, pm them and tell them to stop by the regional forum-- That's how I first discovered SoCal-- and you can get local riders to sign up for BF and get more people in that way too.

I'm heading to VA to visit the fam-- I love them but I'm a little sad about being off my bike for almost a week. I was going to post there and ask about bike rentals in the Williamsburg/Yorktown area of VA.

I'm a bit of a lurker because I don't post that much and have only been on one group ride. That's def changing this year, though!

Hi all,
I am definitely a LURKER. I confess. I have been stalking the forums trying to find new rides. I did the Stagecoach ride too :) I am sure I saw some of you. And you may have seen me. It's safe to say I was probably the only black chick there :) I live in Vegas and part time in Ontario Ca. so keep me posted on any fun rides you guys may be doing. Im IN> if I'm not home lurking.
