One of my favorite hobbies is swing biking. My friend Larry custom builds them and when we first started riding several years ago, we had nothing to compare them to, because virtually no one was riding them. Our learning curve was a little painful, but we are pretty confident now.
So if you are every our on the Mission Beach Boardwalk...or the Boardwalk near Hermosa Beach...or the Boardwalk in Santa Barbara...you just might run in to us there...but we won't run into you...we have skills now...most of the time... :)
