Nor-Cal Group Ride Proposal

[V-Max 2 Busa]

OK fellas it's been way too long so I'm just gonna throw this out there and see what happens. Keep in mind I'm not the most knowledgable when it comes to Nor Cal's roads but here is what I'm thinking.

Next Saturday Meet up in Sac at approx. 8:00 am and shoot up Interstate 5 to Red Bluff & stop for breakfast. Hit Hwy 36 out of Red Bluff all the way to Hwy 101 and stop for a late lunch in Fortuna, Eureka or Arcata. Maybe from there head up 101 to Crescent City for dinner and lodging. Sunday morning shoot back down 101 and hit 299 from McKinleyville to Redding. From there I'm not sure maybe 44 to Susanville.

We can bump this to the following weekend if necessary, can also alter the route, I'm open for suggestions. Let's get this rolling people.

Here's one of Tim's pics of Hwy 36, I think this should be memorable.

If the seas part for me, Gene, I'd love to participate. I am installing 11 giant windows in my house now (delivered today), have out of town relatives visiting this week and a few other projects going....but I'll still try to make time for it! Let's see if anyone else jumps on this. Doyle

Ordinarily I would be all over this. I was just thinking the other day how I'd like to go on a ride with friends without sponsors or having to pay to go along.

Unfortunately I'm in the process of moving into the new house and wifey ain't gonna let me go anywhere till I get all her shoes moved.

Can we do it in September? That's when I'll be free again.

I'm with you in spirit... My next road trip will be in my Soul with the family. At least it's Orange, like Smaug.

So were we talking about 24th or the 31st? I am busy the 24th, and I am missing the GP in Monterey too. :cry:

I may not be in for any long distance stuff til the Stampede.

Only going to do it once, having second thoughts about doing it at all. The more I think about it the less I want to do it. Most I've done in a day was 775 on the Busa. Hopefully, the C 14 will be more comfy, butt it's gonna be smokin' hot out there.

Why watch 2 or 3 corners when I can watch the whole thing and be cool and comfortable at the crib? Speed's coverage sucks but the Ride Is On! Just may not be able to sit and watch it after 1034 miles on the Connie.
