When were you thinking?
Check the weather often - it's been raining here quite a bit lately.
It's June yet the ski slopes up near Tahoe are still fully operational.
DINO may want to go. *hint hint*

Bring your kites, wind at Moss has been perfect lately in the afternoons, tides? Bigfoot tires? means you can hit it in a 4 hour window of low tides
and that means high,low tide.
Of course its a crap shoot because as soon as I write this, the winds will die down until the weather pattern sets up again, happens almost every
time.

Bring it on Dino - I've got a pair of chopsticks for you and five bucks that says you starve when we go out for lunch. :tumble:

nope not OB .. shoreline. They have a designated kite field. Unlike OB where you take a 50/50 chance of getting kicked off or not. That is a 50/50
chance after you factor in tides, wind, and people. So now you are at about 10% chance of getting to ride. Its too far for me to travel to get to OB
to take a chance on such a small percentage to get the opportunity to ride.

We should chip in and buy Dino some chopstick training wheels. It's a little clip that connects the two together. Lol.
Fly me down and I'll come take photos and video. No buggying but I wanna see the girls of Cali. Current source is Alex's FB contacts. Hotties!!!

Matthew: If you want to come, there is an event at Shoreline Kite Park this Saturday (June 25, 2011).
Info is located in the events section from Rip (Thanks Ricky).
Expect to see Dino there (please note: we do not hand out pins for buggying naked there Dino).
