We encourage responsible, safe sport kiting.
Remember that many sport kites can easily achieve speeds

Be aware of ground hazards, respect your fellow kite flyer's airspace,
and please don't fly over roads or spectators.
Don't ever turn over a power kite or hard pulling stack to a child or
an inexperienced flyer.
If at any time you think you're such a hotshot pilot that you can ignore the
simple rules of responsible, safe flying,
then it's time to PUT DOWN THE HANDLES.

Wind Wizard Custom Aluminum Buggy Wheels

These die-cast aluminum split-rim wheels are designed to be a no- modification direct replacement for the nylon wheels used on Lynn and Cobra buggies and any others using 12mm axle bolts.
They run much truer than the nylon wheels as they are built to have better roundness for smooth running at speed and feature sealed precision ball bearings. They weigh in at just 11 oz. each heavier than the
stock black nylon wheels.
These wheels have been extensively tested on the Southern California dry lake beds and the beaches of California, Florida and France.
They are fitted with new 4.0/4.8 x 8 ribbed tyres and tubes and feature a machined magnet mount on one wheel for the sensor of your cyclometer or other speedometer.

Set of three wheels w/ tyres and tubes $ 250.00

With the increasing popularity of knobby tread tyres, we now have
4.0/4.8 x 8 knobby tyres for $14.00 ea.
4.0/4.8 x 8 rib tyres $12.50 ea
4.0 x 8 tubes, (specify bent or straight stem) $6.55 each

Above prices plus UPS and [7.25% sales tax for CA residents only..]
Shipping weight approx 22 lbs /set of three..

"When she was a small girl, Amanda hid a ticking clock in an
old rotten tree trunk. It drove woodpeckers crazy. Ignoring
tasty bugs all around them, they just about beat their brains
out trying to get at the clock. Years later, Amanda used the
clock experiment as a model for understanding capitalism,
Communism, Christianity and all other systems that traffic in
future rewards rather than in present realities."

from "Another Roadside Attraction" by Tom Robbins.

Mooning: A history. When did people start baring their butts as an insult?

Update, July 10, 2011

From all reports I've seen today the mooning on July 9th
went off well again without any need for law enforcement
intervention. It appears that the Laguna Niguel Fun Police want very badly to shut the event down and so far have not done so..
Below are some links that I've found..

Laguna Niguel: A more modest year for Moon Amtrak?

 

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

If you missed the 30th Annual Mooning [2009] of the Amtrak,
you didn't miss a hell of a lot..
I think there were damn near as many cops as there were mooners..
I would estimate what I saw were around 30-50 people attending
[at least while I was there] tops!
Unfortunately, the assholes won.. I'm referring to the ones that came
to the mooning last year [2008] and got WAY out of hand..
Like total nudity, one couple screwing on the sidewalk,
public urination and defecation, people giving alcohol to minors, etc..
I don't know any of this first hand, but only can rely on what I read
of last year's event, and the information I got talking
to one of the sheriffs this year..
I can see both sides of the issue and understand why they clamped
down on it so hard, but still.. The earlier moonings that I/we attended
were a hell of a lot of fun!

You can see some feedback from 2008 via this link..
