Do you want to ride-along from Encinitas-Scorpion Bay?



¡Hola!
I am looking for somebody to ride-along with me later this week. I'm planning to drive down to Scorpion Bay on Wednesday 7/26 to catch some surf and fish next weekend. (It looks like there will be some swell...) I also plan to be back in San Diego on or around Friday 8/4. I have a 4x4 extended cab Toyota Taco, and there will be some room inside and on the racks for your gear and boards.

I am an experienced Baja traveler, though it's been a number of years since I've been to San Juanico. I already have year-around Mex insurance. If you'd like to ride along (and maybe do some driving?), shoot me a message!

I wonder about your user name.

Should "bigal77" be read as "bi-gal 77" with 77 being your year of birth?

Or is it "Big Al 77" and the 77 is a reference to your age?

Or something completely different?

I suspect you'll have greater success if the first reading is right. ;)

Roll Tide, I'm a big fan of the Red Elephants since my navy days in the south. Nick Saban has done an excellent job and I hope he continues. I'm a little torn with the new season opening game with FSU since my uncle was a dean at FSU and Bobby Bowden was a favorite with me for years.

It is good you cleared things up. I was reading the user name as 'Big gal 77'!




If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

Dang, I don't think you'll have problems caravaning... I feel like everyone is going down there this week!! ;)
