Welcome!! Good to see another Ca. person. There is TONS of info here, make sure you visit the TM section, it is on the old site but is accessed thru the "resources" tab at the top of the forum pages. I hope you get a chance to hook up with Bigmike and the others, all I have met thru here are top of the food chain people.

Sure will! And I'm sure there weren't be a shortage of B.S., uh, conversation when we meet up. Nothing solid yet. We're kinda thinking it might be best to wait a few weeks until after the 1st. We'll keep you posted but don't hesitate to agitate!

take a look at 100dollarman.com he sells deuces down in cali! and ive heard nothing but good things from him...
I enjoyed the time I spent with hundy and his possie at the last camp dirtbag, keep the plastic bags and fuel cans away from him while you are sitting next to the fire and things are great.

Having been on the winning and loosing sides of his bidding on GL:p, I look foward to buying some nice gear in the future.:-D

Welcome to the site Jesse, try to make the next dirtbag great bunch of people (It's what makes it so special about being Californian)

Welcome

Welcome to the sickness Jesse.
998 Junkie I kind of liked the night tan I got at the last dirt bag.
That and there were no bugs.

I heard something about not being able to sleep in past sun up somebody's alarm clock went off and woke everyone up. The nerve!!

Can't wait until the next one
