Start here and fix the problem.  BUY A FUCKING CAR OR MOTORCYCLE.  And figure out a way to afford it, (maintenance, gas, insurance). 
  
Who the hell wants some fucking leech sucking them dry for free rides all over SoCal with gas prices well over $3/gallon? 
  
You need to pull your own weight.  And if you can't do it w/r/t gas and transportation, I sure as hell doubt you'll carry half the group gear, pull your weight leading, and so on...
