Hi.
If you scroll down, you'll see all of the late night spots for the Valley, Westside, Hollywood, et cetera. :o)
I hear Tacos Texcoco's tacos are 80 cents.

i was watching mine and a few other bikes so mr quick could go pee, and a cop rolls down saticoy and then turns into the back alley where the 7-11 is (also where mr quick had just gone to pee) and i run to see where the cop was going, and a few other kids are like "YO WHERES DAT COP GOIN? IS HE TURNIN AROUND? I AINT DOIN NOTHIN WRONG BUT I GOT FRIENDS IN THE STORE STEALIN ME SHIT". and another kid was like "YEAH I DIDN STEEL NOTHIN....BUT DIS JOOSE!"

Well stuff happens, TNS and SFVCM were leading the ride up to that point that we stopped at the first 7-11, then they disappeared? Waiting for a hundred people to buy stuff at a store does take some time, but stealing sucks at any level. If someone/anyone saw the guys stealing they should have stepped up and told the cops that were in the parking lot or a least told the thieves not too steal if they had any balls, but oh well I guess you cannot get hurt if you don't get involved.

I guess the method a lot of are taking up now is a thing called avoidance.
I did like going to the dam. I never been there before. Too bad there wasn't that much riding involved. But that's my bad for not starting with SFVCM

as usual Tyler backs himself into a corner of stupid and tries to lie his way out:
"a cop rolls down saticoy and then turns into the back alley where the 7-11 is"
or
"i also didnt see any cops in the parking lot."
in any case, thank you for leaving tyler. you left just in time to avoid getting slapped.

an alley is not a parking lot, nor did they stop. they rode through and made a left on whatever that street is.

All in All, I had a blast, I think it was the biggest hills yet for Taco Tuesdays. Thanks to Krista for stepping up and showing us the best place to kick it at the dam. Fun was definitely had last night!!!!!!
PS - riding back over the Cahuenga Pass at 3am was crazy, fun, and a lot of fricking pedaling, but as they say "all in a days work" ;)
PSS - should we do "back to back" dam rides? lol

Mom ridazz Tuesday milage was only 28 miles.
After the dam I stayed back there were like 5 flats we had to deal. Some of them weren't even fixable flats and they ended up riding it that way all the home!
Also some dude on the way back some how crashed all by him self and bent his fork and bent the shit of of his frame. I was amazed that he wasn't hurt since his bike told a horrific story.
We took sanfernando all the way home through griffith park.
We even had to do some invasive manuvers to ditch park patrols that were trying to bust our night.
Good times indeed.....

Why call them out? Have something to think about? Most of the people think before they steal and they have the "I don't care" mentality. Someone calling them out only makes that person look like an idiot.

I'm actually pretty offended by that stupid fucking picture of RBI. That is the height of douchery. Learn how to debate like thoughtful individuals and don't resort to something as utterly offensive as joking about stealing someone's bike. And yes, I know it's taken from a different context, and yes, I remember that thread too. It was douchery there as well.

If anyone sees these things hanging from someone's bike, and I happen to be around...tell me so I can unpolitely/physically retrieve my shit. I really liked that cog and converse tag.

you guys are so wrapped up in your id that you cant see the bigger picture.
-did you just use the word "id?"
then you try to pass the blame on things that have nothing to do with it rather than trying to come to a solution that will work.
-your only solution to clean up rides like taco tuesday has been to stop doing "party rides"
-if youve never been on a taco tuesday (last night didnt count) then how do you know that nothing we've tried has worked?
-if you have a real solution, we'd love to hear it. you don't.
what does that picture have to do with that post?
-let me explain it to you this way: you're full of shit and you don't live in the real world.
-or let me try another way: you're so wrapped up in your ego that you can't see the bigger picture.
-or just stare at this picture for a few minutes and maybe it will come to you-->

Well the rim doesn't look too damaged. Just went to go get a new tire for it, however there is

I might head out The Passage ride tonight though.....

Great Ride....What happen to the people that stayed behind with the lil kid...We got lots of flats coming back from the dam down the little bike path with all the bushes next to it...Then again at the end of the hill coming down from the dam....Then I got a flat (a thorn) but luckily I had a spare tube that I didn't give away that day....I noticed that lots of cyclist didn't have spare tubes..I stayed behind with the third pack of cyclist trying to fix a flat about 8 one of them 1 was from the westside and the rest were from around downtown including myself....I got home around 4am..We took san fernando all the way to Downtown...By the way it was only me/westsider riding since everybody else smashed....This ride kicked a lot of ass...

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the crazy pile during that narrow bike trail. It was near the down hill portion where it was completely dark and there was a sharp banking curve. I was one of the first people down that portion and watched at least 10 people eat it. What made matters worse is that idiots were blocking the path and making it even more difficult for brakeless riders to slow down to safety. But damn, that was seriously nuts!
