Great kitesurf Saturday at C Street with old buds

A call came in from Lauren our San Diego based,world traveling seal bud, that he was going to be up at Mugu with his great girlfriend and whatryaoin? After a way to hot and late in the day mountain bike ride to the top of the hills and several computer checks and phone calls to rally the gang, we all shot up to C Street. It is sure a lot more fun taking the high mileage old turbo P wagon up the coast with that racing exhuast hum resonating off of the seaside cliff walls up PCH. Saw Heidi on her new exotic road bike pulling away from some dude who was chasing her. Cool to see she is having a blast in the bike scene.

Arival at C Street had Lauren/girlfriend, Alex and Vic with his Vet watching some very fun conditions with quite a few kites out. The wind only got better throughout the day and the gang of us on PL kites upwinded all the way to Emma Wood and riding anything that resembled a wave on the way up and back. Next came the point wave with about ten of us hitting it. What a blast. Lauren had not kited do to a heavy travel schedule since last Christmas and was very happy with the go out. His girlfriend is a competitive half marathon runner and tomorow morning has me running with his girlfriend up Sycamore Canyon in the morning as he paces us along side on my mountainbike. Then it is off to performance bike shop for the couple to look over his and her road bikes and maybe if Loran can find a used mountain bike. He is a bit shorter than and there is someone I know with a barely used full suspension bike that might want to sell it. Hmmmm??..

Gary was ripping it up at C Street on his new 12 Synergy. He has figured it out already. He did come in to borrow my Xanadu later.. He has the bug and needs one.. Vic and I were on them as well and tried to convince Lauren to use his fish instead of his twin with the 16 VII. He did well on his combo but would probably have had more fun with the little waves on his fish. Hope tomorrow afternoon goes off as well. Lauens gal unfortunately has to take a train back to SD and then a flight home to Canada and her hospital job so no kitesurf water lesson for her. They are to come on the Fourth of J trip to SQ so that one will be even more fun. Our visit to our buds Tips Tia food in Ventura was a blast. It was great to see Chang and we all had some great laughs. The drive home in the P wagon, chasing Vic in his Vet down the freeway for a while was fun and the clear night sky through the sunroof with my 5'10" twinfin Xanadu" girlfriend in the passenger seat was the icing on the beach life cake.
