So I had 3 weeks of freedom, I got a call last week from my previous job and got a job offer, after weeks of bad economic news I had enough time to think about it so I took it.
The catch: is in Fresno!!!!!!
Yep I'll working there and coming home just about every other weekend, there is nothing in Fresno in fact is as flat and dirty as Paris Hilton's butt.
Ok there is a couple of good things nearby, one is the Sierras just an hour drive and the second thing is this new mountain biking park in the city, check it out:

Yeah I had the pleasure of living in Fresno, transplanted from San Diego in the middle of 6th grade for two years. The good thing is that you do have the Sierra Nevadas right there, like less than an hour. Peeps are a little different there :shock:

Nevertheless, Im glad we got to ride when we did, You are way cool Baja!

Jose, my dear freind and Bonita Bikers ambassador,

I am very happy to hear the good news, and I am sure everyone else is feeling the same as with this horrible economy, there is no reason not to take the job although the location is not the most desireable. Knowing that you have two mortgages, it is better to be emplyed now these days as the economical future isn't that bright.

I am at the same time feel bad that we are going to loose the most active memeber of Bonita Bikers, Dirt Treaders, who is always looking to organize and recruit new riders. We are all going to miss having you down here, but the good thing again is that you are here almost every other weekend.

I don't know if your family is going to go with you, but in case if they stay, you have the big family of Bonita Bikers down here in case if there is any need. I hope that the situation gets better so you will end up back down here in a very near future.

Again, best of luck with the new job and the new location and try to make the best while staying in Fresno. I am sure you will find some nice cool locals to ride with and in case if you have extra time on your hand, you can always burn the extra caloires riding on the road although, I know you don't like road riding like myself.

As Travis offered a get to gether, I am all for it and this time around, you have to have a cold beer for all of us saluting your new job.

Take care my freind and I will definetly make sure I have a few rides ( short or long ) with you before your departure.

Ali

Thanks guys, I really appreciate your kind words, I will be checking this site to find out what is going on with my friends and will try to ride every now and then when I'm in town. Thanks again, see you guys this Saturday in Cuyamaca.

Glad to hear you're back in business. It was a pleasure to meet and ride with you a couple weeks ago. I'm sure all of the new guys in Fresno will be better off now that you'll be there!

I know I appreciated it. Hope to catch you on some rides before you go.

A new area for the Bajacabra to incorporate into Treader knowledge...
Its gonna be a bummer without you around, although I am glad you have employment opportunity.
Be sure to donate to our public knowledge banks as to what trails are the ones to ride up that-a-way!!
Saturdays ride will be all the more special Baja.
