Small bike takeover!

If I take the luggage off, can I join the small bike group?

You'd have to take a cylinder off as well, and it would still be considered a big bike at that point.

I am open this week if anyone else is.  Any weekday, I just need a day notice so I can show up to work early

I will let you know tomorrow for a Wednesday ride. Ramona/Party mountain.

Can I make a suggestion ?  I know many of you don't like my suggestions,  but this original post is from 2022.

It might be better to start a new post for every time you want to do a ride up there, so new people don't have to page thru a couple dozen posts to figure out when you're going riding. The regulars who have been here awhile know what's going on, but the new people probably don't. 

Just my suggestion.

There is another group that does a ride every Wed and the post is always Wed Night Ride (with that date in the title)
That would be the best way to manage this.
just my .02

Going to try this again for 9/12  sun sets about 7:00 so meet up at 6:00 at the coffee shop, KSU at 6:15?  Temps look to be good.   Anyone interested?

 

So for it’s me and @Rjg967

[bsham 9]

I'll be there this evening. 

[Pokey151 244]

looks like i need to cancel, Bob had an injury at work, he just got stitched up and can't make it, so I need to wait,  I was on standby with work but could not confirm my trip so I am stuck

[padu 322]

Now that it's getting darker earlier, when is the next one?

Not sure, I am down for most weekdays, I just need to know early that morning or the night before.  Mid day decisions is impossible. Due to my work schedule. I’ve tried a few times to arrange it, but there’s been no interest from last time. There was one person who said they could go, but I had to cancel.

How about tomorrow (9/26/2023) evening?

I have zero knowledge of the route... does anybody have a GPX or some pointers about the route?

Unfortunately i can't but definitely next Tuesday.

I don't edit my videos so they are long but this will give you an idea of the road. Last time i went up the last mile of the road was blown out with rocks and ruts everywhere. Worse i have seen it in years. Nothing difficult just need to pay attention to your lines more.
