This was a really fun little get together! I arrived a little early with my friend Rob and our Quickbeams and dropped my Rivy & hatchet off. Then met up with Mike for a spin up the creek trail to Santiago Oaks Regional Park and meandered around there a bit. That took a couple hours or so, just in time to come back to the show and hang out. Met up with Doug, talked to Rob #2 & Daniel and looked at some really cool bikes. Most if not all were riders and not show pieces. Very refreshing to see so many great bikes that look like they get miles put on them!
And then of course we had to trek to downtown Orange to find food and refreshments. Hanging out with my friends from the internet is always a fun time! This show was a labor of love, no cost to show or view bikes, funded by donations. Put on by Torelli Fan and Adrenaline Bike Shop. Shout outs to both of them!!!
