The forcast is looking great.  Anyone interested on doing a ride?  I was thinking about leaving after 10 to let it warm up a bit in the morning.

You did say any body. Did you have a route in mind?  I was thinking that we could see what that Antelope Lake Ride would be like.  You know the one where we went to Lake Almanor instead because we didn't have a route.  The road looks twisty from Buntingville to the lake and back out to 89.  I attached a link where I let google bring it out back to 89.  The road should be paved. Other suggestions? Ideas?

The time sounds good, the usual pace? (startbucks)

 ;D Russell, you were reading my mind. Both suggestions sound good to me. We may not see another weekend quite this nice again. Let's roll.

Thanks for posting maps and suggestions that's awesome Brad.  There's a positive and a negative with the route.  That first section heading north on 395 will keep us warm in the morning since it's at lower elevation, but it will be a bit of a drone.  To throw another option on the table, I never made it up to LaPorte this year.  I really don't care where we go, I just want to RIDE!

Hey John, I look forward to riding with you this weekend!  Bring some ideas too, we can discuss a route at starbucks.

I was thinking of doing Monitor Summit tomorrow. I have a friend on her Harley going.
Remember the last time we went over Yuba pass after a storm we I ran into some Ice and Sand. I think we should head South.  We can still meet at the Starbucks and turn keys around 10:30 to let it warm us a little bit. What do you think?

Resistor,  La Port sounds great. ;) I am willing to head north, almost anywhere. I am kind of burnt on the south. Besides I am headed that way while leading a dual sport ride next weekend.  ::)

Bigcat, Risistor, BMW Dave wow....Sounds like we have a family reunion in the making   :D
Oh' what starbucks. I would guess the west side???

What a wonderful ride today. Thanks to all who made it happen. Magdelyn and Bee made the ride so enjoyable. KLR Dave always good to ride with you. Russell and Big Cat you two always make the ride normal and having you there with your involvement makes everyone much safer.  You OLDBOLT your the reason we do what we do. All your comments make the rides worth while. Thanks Guys I really had fun. I was just like old times.
I have never had dinner in the other Resturant where all the harley's go. Man that place was pretty cool. It took a while to get our food, but when it got there it was hot and tasty.
Let's do it again next Sunday if the weather holds up?
