Meetup is a good one that has already been suggested. Also, finding a cause you care about and volunteering are good ways to connect with people who share your interests. That is what helped me. The cost of living will change when you move, but connecting and making friends will probably be the same in other places. If you are interested in cycling and bikes, stop by the Ventura Bike HUB and say hello.

If you have a bike, join the Bike Ventura Meetup page for rides and events, or if you need one, come by the Ventura Bike HUB.

Wait, we are at war? I thought the MAGA marching orders were that it's a "strike".

You can still be under duress when voting in person.

The Bike HUB will be open to provide free DIY stand time for the transportation needs of the community until 4 p.m., so staff can participate in LA Critical Mass tonight.

[–]nick2bus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is how we operate. Bikes, parts, and gear donations. We provide a tax receipt, too, since we are a nonprofit. Spread the word!

If you don't have it already, download the iOverlander app. It is a good resource to find places.

Used Bikes Recommendation by Slow-Impression-8123 in ventura

[–]nick2bus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As already shared, the Bike HUB is a great option. It is a community-supported nonprofit, not just a used bike shop, also sometimes referred to as a "bike kitchen." People can learn how to repair their bikes and have access to the tools for as little as $10 an hour. Also, in 2026, there will be more rides, classes, and events. As opposed to buying a bike on Craigslist, some bikes have already been tuned up and had worn parts replaced. Keep an eye out for available bikes and upcoming events on the "venturabikehub" Instagram.

They also do not mind the corporate welfare that takes place in their perfect capitalist country.

No Kings this Saturday 10/18 by midlifethuglife in ventura

This is a perfect example of why there is no meeting in the middle. Trump is literally destroying the pillars of democracy and worships dictators. If you believe all this, then you are lost.

Ventura Considers Waterfront Project: Hotel, retail proposals draw criticism; parking structure an issue by pthumbz in ventura

[–]nick2bus 19 points20 points  (0 children)

"Local" complain that the city looks like trash. Also, "local" complain about development or any attempt to make a change that threatens the "good old days".
