I sure as hell ain't goin' all the way out to the bay area and turning around to take it to Nevada by myself............somebody better muster up!!!!

Breeze, that's a killer (as in fantastic) ride across the mountain range. The guys would be nuts not to ride along!

Who's ridin' with Breeze to meet Ofreen?

I gotta ask finally - Mr Breeze of Lynyrd Skynyrd fame?

domer · « **Reply #402 on:** April 19, 2011, 08:35:43 AM »

im down for the ride to santa cruz! although my ass, my job, and my wife aint gonna let me go to nevada. hell she's gonna be pissed if she finds out im taking a day off work for this! Of course it shows up the week we are installing carpet in my hotel... boss is gonna hang me for "getting deathly ill with the 24 hr. flu" oh well! it'll be worth it in the end!

maybe we could meet at the Boardwalk.... or the pier.... or ?

gemini, we could meet at my house in Daly City and cruise down the 1...

Domer, Sounds good. I think we oughta meet up and fly the banner at the pier or the boardwalk.
I can only do the haul to NV if it's a bit later in the week. SF-SC-SF-NV is a bit much, especially since I need to be in Fernley again by the 6th.

This is the preliminary list of riders for that leg I came up w/ a few months ago - Fatmatt, Grumpy, Geminimotors, Mr.Breeze, Scondon, Stueve.
Looks like Gemini is out.
Grumpy? What's your plan?
Any word from Scondon and Stueve?
I'm thinking I'll ride as far as South Lake Tahoe, camp out for the night somewhere and ride back the next day.

geminimotors · « **Reply #406 on:** April 19, 2011, 11:14:26 AM »

Not out, I'll just need to peel off somewhere east of the bay- maybe when Mrbreeze joins up.

mrbreeze · « **Reply #407 on:** April 19, 2011, 11:21:55 AM »

Sean is gonna be down south for an event and ride back up north with the south guys. I haven't heard what he will do after that. So you're up for Tahoe Matt? Then you can bring the lizard to me in Farmington or Modesto and we could run him over the Sierras or we could wait till Gemini needs to go to Fernley and ride with him?? Lemme know.....time is gettin' tite!!!

I just got word from my boss that escrow on our new building is closing next Wednesday and our whole office is moving Thursday and Friday. Talk about terrible timing! I'm 50% sure I can still pull this off, but not if it's Tuesday Wednesday as I NEED to be in the office packing. We're not yet sure what our responsibilities will be Thursday Friday, but I'll keep you guys posted. I'm an independent contractor, so literally ANY other time would have been OK to take off, but this is something I can't miss, or my job would no longer be mine....

grumpy · « **Reply #409 on:** April 19, 2011, 11:35:27 AM »

No Tahoe for me.
I can't do an overnight. Work has me by the shorthairs.
I'm gonna have to pull a sick day for the bay area stage as it is.

Plus we're in-contract on a house as of yesterday. I gotta stay close to home

scondon · « **Reply #410 on:** April 19, 2011, 02:28:08 PM »

Back from a European trip, and putting the engine in bike for final time tomorrow. Once it's confirmed that all the oil is going where it should, and not going where it shouldn't my plans are as follows:

1) Make it to Willow Springs/APE for the complimentary lap and meet-up with AZ contingent. My attendance at the Easter weekend AHRMA event is hinging on how fast I can get the bike to a state that I have 1000 miles of confidence in it.

2) Ride with AZ rider(s) to San Luis Obispo. Ride with FatMatt/CA contingent back to the Bay Area to spend the night in my own bed.

3) Hook up with Mr. Breeze for the most awesome twisties in the U.S. (once we get out of the godawful Central Valley).

As stated at the top my plans hinge on the bike. Engine runs great, but first attempt had blocked oil jet followed by seeping from head gasket. I should know for certain by Thursday-Friday whether I'm making it to LA. Once I know my availability for ride legs I'll start collecting phone numbers of those I need to meet up with.

I spoke with Kayjohn today: he and the other riders in Kingman are going all the way to Joshua Tree with me on Tuesday. Anyone from SoCal going to meet up with us there?

Guys, I'm totally bummed. I've been looking forward to participating for months. I was going to see my sister at Cal Poly SLO, one of my best friends also lives up there, but my office moving has put the kibosh on any plans to leave and I look like an A-hole...

Good luck to all the riders, and I KNOW I can join next year. Ride on!

Mooshie · « **Reply #423 on:** April 22, 2011, 02:42:16 PM »

I'm meeting at Rosamond for the ride to SLO. Anyone know who is going to be at Rosamond and when? and what time the lap is at Willows?, and what time are we leaving Rosamond for SLO?, and what route are we taking?, and where I put my car keys, and what's for dinner? and ......

geminimotors · « **Reply #424 on:** April 22, 2011, 07:52:50 PM »

Mooshie, It's gonna be okay, I promise. Just remember- Pants first. Then shoes.
I dunno exactly what's going to happen, but I'm sure looking forward to it.
