Epic news... Just gained access to VA Beach! After a 45 minute conversation with a Corporal going through all of the regulations covering anything remotely close to being against regulation it turns up none. :singing: My approach on the subject with him was "safety is paramount" which was complete truth and he liked that. So who's in for some stellar riding on Saturday? Winds blowing on shore 26 and end of the day 20. Hopefully that will hold and I can't wait for WG to see this


Edit: Please anyone reading this ride with responsibility so we don't lose this. Wave to people and be friendly, we are here to educate as well as have fun.

(just fell out of chair)....




I LOVE YOU MAN!!!!:saint: You have been here 2 days ,and found a new spot already. You rock !

Congrats on the new spot bros!

Congrats on the new spot bros!

:bouncy::bouncy:YOU :roll: ROCK:bouncy::bouncy:



I will be there with Kites on :singing: :wee::wee::wee:

No worries and thank you both Brothers. Let's go down there and share the stoke of this passion.

When and where are you guys meeting? I am interested, but I want to see what travel time is going to be. Thanks!

It's over a 5 hr trip for me...but I'm tempted! :karate:

Yeah, with the morning low-tide, I'm not sure the trip is worth the amount of time required... But I'll take a look at it...

edit: Looks like a 4hr trip to Virginia Beach central... Just curious where folks would be meeting up on the beach...

If I wanted to be there AT LowTide, I would have to leave the house around 0600hrs... Thats a bit early....

Public parking on 15 st. Looks to be the ticket which is in front of the pier. Donnie and I plan on being out there around 8ish. Come on guys you know you want to right RICH?

To be there by 0800hrs, I would need to be out my door at 0400hrs. Thats a hair insane. I'll have to think about it...

Question: I'm assuming you would be riding north from the pier?

Yes, correct from the pier all the way to Fort Story close to a 6 mile ride one way. Sunday still looking good as well blowing on shore at 12 all day.

With the later tide on Sunday... I might be able to make that. Still, it is a long drive (nearly 4 hrs one way, not including traffic)...

As there is good winds locally on Saturday, it is more likely that I will go kitesurfing Saturday. Might make the haul Sunday... but I also might take the day to sleep in...

What are the tides? I'm 99% sure i'm in. I'll just crash early on Friday night and leave early to try and be there by 8/9am, it's about a 4 hour trip for me. I'm itching for a good onshore session, so I'd like to have as much riding time as possible. I just sent you an email ragden.

I'm waffling! Cant make up my mind on what I want to do. Shot Sunnie an e-mail to see what she wants to do... If I can find reasonable lodging Friday night... I might head down then... Maybe I'll bring my kitesurfing stuff and when the tide gets too high, I'll just hit the water...

Just spoke with Erica at the Econo Lodge 757-428-3970. She can do $55 a night tax included for two people. That's not too shabby for a couple people teaming up. Maybe get Nick and Lad to jump in there too... stay the night and ride with us on Sunday.

To get the deal when you call, tell her you are one of the team riders

We neeeeeed Sunnie pictures

Wow... okay... I might just be sold.. need to discuss with Sunnie.. If we can get a couple people that will be very very reasonable. I was looking at the Alamar which is 65 for a room with a kitchen... Anyone wanna get together to crash at the Econo? (long as sunnie agrees)

$55 a night isn't too bad. I've been considering a Saturday night stay over. If somebody else wants to split a room for Saturday night, let me know. Do we have a head count going for this?

9 people there on the beach with 5-7 riders if every one on this thread that responded shows up. LAD, come on my friend!

I'm pumped about this. I'm ready to get some good riding in, but I can't wait to see everybody as well. This is exactly the kind of therapy I need right now.

Copy, change and paste your corrections if you're coming

I'm definitely coming, just trying to figure out when and for how long.

Cool and did I mention that a hottie I met today is coming with her camera (semi pro) on Sunday? She's into brass knuckles

Sunnie and I will be there. Currently discussing whether we are leaving early Saturday, or Friday night. Are we doing a bar-b-que Saturday night? lol

Good question... WeldNGod?

Well na-nanny-boo-boo to you guys and your Va beach... I'm goin to Nahant this weekend...:Ange09::bouncy:

Have a blast Loise!

well... looks like Sunnie might be bringing Bulgogie and anther fun korean dish for peeps who are near our room at the Econo...

Hey Michael, did you and Sunnie decide when you were going to head down yet?
