Steemdiego flop | How not to have a steemit meet up | What you missed if you didn't make it
We originally had 10 people that were going to join us that we knew of...Well, as it turns out the only two people who showed up were @erin-michiels and @captainobviou3.
This night was made possible by steemit
Started off with a bang.
@erin-michiels told the pedicab that I was youtube famous. LOL
Lets go to the top of San Diego
@erin-michiels said "I get the @papa-pepper shirt as the prize"
Watch the video below!
A special shout out to @papa-pepper for sending us the gifts. We have something special to send him very soon.
Also a special shout out to all those who up-voted all the posts leading up to the steemit meet up. Thanks @creatr for making the effort to come out.
Wow, that sucks. At least you folks went together and made the best of it.
We had a blast! Thanks for stopping over to check it out. 👋🏻👀
sorruy i couldnt make it man! i will definitly try and make next one! u should have it at my house!
I'm still lurking in your neighborhood...lol
Hope to find out sooner next time. I ended up working on my podcast until 1:30 AM - was spot on at 3 that I wasn't going to be ready by 6 :)
Glad you had a good time!!
Do you all live downtown? It is such a pain to park there. Maybe the next one can be in an easy parking area :)
Thanks! Sorry for the late notice. The next one will be at the Torrey Pines glider port if every thing goes right. Thanks for the feedback.
LOL! horrible!
Lol. We had such a good time.
Sorry to hear that more people weren't able to show up. We had a very similar problem with Bitcoin meetups here in Tucson. One time it was just me and the founder of the Meetup. Now there is a new Meetup here in Tucson for Bitcoin but I didn't even join it. I know that sounds kind of weird but it seemed like pulling teeth to get people together and I didn't feel like I had time for it. If I was in San Diego I would have totally went to you meetup though!
I am not tripping. I expected a low turnout on this first one. I talked to a couple guys that said the same thing happened to them on the first meetup. I think the next one will be at the Torrey Pines glider port. We can catch the sunset and if no one shows up I will just fly around the whole time.😜
Ahh, that's a shame Robert. At least you went out and had fun regardless :)
We had a great night!
That's what it's all about matey :)
Just to give you a heads up Robert............... I've decided to sell all the PG gear. A few reasons really:
I thought also while the glider was serviced back in June and was certified until June 2019, I reckoned that I might get a decent return on my purchase price. As it's well over 10 years old. it'll probably only saleable as 'Ground Handling Only' in a couple of years.
I've got listing on ebay currently and one bid at the moment.

I am sorry to here that my friend. Life has its battles. I hope things turn around for you. I just sold my old wing. (kite only) on eBay for 300. usd.
Thanks Cap't :)
Maybe one day I can return with full commitment. I believe UK now has fully deregulated sub 70kg trike paramotoring so that could be one option to return to at a later stage (no additional training or licensing required). I think a lot of pilots have been doing it anyway and 'they' can't be bother to 'police' it lol.
Nice price for the old glider :) For 'kite only' in UK, you'd be lucky to get 100quid on ebay :)
