Hey guys! I’m a member on the forum, podcast listener and I’m currently a resident of AZ, but will be moving to LA area in the next few weeks to become an employee of SpaceX! Totally excited about the opportunity, but I’m afraid I’ll be missing out on a ton of wheeling we get in out here. So, I’m curious of what the wheeling scene is like, if there is one, on the south side of Cali!?

I love your trail stories. The story from a few shows ago about the Sierra Trek and then this week’s recap of the ‘Con weekend were both such great stories. I felt the adventures through my phone. Keep it up!!
