Leave Cal Moto, Mountain View @ 7am. Cal Moto group picks up Tri-Valley Moto group 7:45am. East on Sonora Pass, back over Tioga. Or not, Hwy 120's still closed but we'll figure that out. Still stopping along the way for fuels, fo-tog-rafee, flying saucers, etc. Details http://www.calmoto.com/community/rides/index.html (http://www.calmoto.com/community/rides/index.html) Hope to see some familiar faces.

Sunday is booked. :( +1 Saturday would have worked perfectly. I'll be riding the Peninsula roads on Saturday instead.

Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: jimboecv on September 02, 2009, 07:35:47 PM Yeah I'm keeping an eye on that one. I'll know more Friday but it's going to stick up a bunch of Aerostitch eitherway. Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: Michael Moore on September 02, 2009, 08:54:22 PM I'm getting monkey-butt just thinking about that ride.
Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: jimboecv on September 02, 2009, 09:30:51 PM In a good way?
Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: GrendelsTwin on September 03, 2009, 02:23:48 PM Un-book. What could you possibily have planned? An early morning ride, possible brunch with a hottie, then a family gathering that will include heavy drinking to dull the pain of not being on the tail end of a ride throught the mountains.

Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: jimboecv on September 04, 2009, 08:12:48 AM Thank you. I'll do better next time.
Edit: The ride route is going to swing by Tri-Valley Moto in Livermore on the way out so I/you/we can sleep in. The plan is to leave here around 7:45 - 8:00am. I'll change first post. PM me if you need further info. Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: TCK! on September 04, 2009, 08:35:22 AM Jim... I've got 1 piece leathers or leather jacket and jeans... which do you feel would be more appropriate for this ride?
I'm still planning to come to the store tomorrow as well. Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: jimboecv on September 04, 2009, 09:12:17 AM Dress for the crash.
The weather should be OK. So you won't roast/freeze. Please wear the white boots, this is a dull crowd. Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: GrendelsTwin on September 07, 2009, 05:06:43 AM So how was it Jimbo? Did y'all see bigfoot in them there hills? [popcorn]
Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: jimboecv on September 09, 2009, 11:01:15 AM No big feets.
35 bikes. hwy 120 to 108. Dipshit on a Tiger blows a turn on the enterance, ran right off the shoulder; Superman! He was OK, but his bike exploded on impact, sidecase part and windscreen passed right under my front wheel. Whew! Road blocked for an hour, we directing traffic -whoopie- Everyone scattered, so my buddy Lou and I head over to 395 and eat some BBQ. Then north to 88, down to 49 south to 120 west and home. The weather was excellent. Some snow up on top still. Traffic was good on the way up but too many RV'n ass-hats coming back. 480 miles and worth it. How was your obligation? Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: GrendelsTwin on September 09, 2009, 05:26:23 PM My plans were undone by yellow jackets on Saturday's ride. One found his way into my helmet and started stinging away, right as I was tipping it into a turn. No crash, but I spent the rest of my weekend in seclusion... waiting for the left half of my face to return to its normal size.
Title: Re: Anyone up for a 500 mile loop? 9/6/09 Post by: jimboecv on September 09, 2009, 07:12:46 PM I could so easily pick on you, you left the door wide open with the 'normal'.
