I'm finally get out for a ride Sunday if the weather is good on Sunday 11/03. Starbucks Vasco 10:30...KSU 10:45ish. I can make it 11-11:30 if that works better. I asked FreeRyde to post another good group ride, but he can't make it on Sunday. Looking for the regular guys who know these mountains...others that can ride within their limits and don't fixate on faster riders and go over their heads are welcome. It's one of the best roads, but it's also very challenging at speed as the regular hooligans know. Full gear...yada yada yada. :thumbup:thumbup:afm199

5K? That is like a three mile walk in the park.
Er,
I am prolly wrong and have the conversion from those socialist units all wrong.
Just kidding. Run like the wind! I used to be able to do that.

What time is preferred? 11 or 1130 at Starbucks

I'm a bit of a sissy riding in the cold part of the morning on race rubber. I'm also coming from Aptos. I would prefer to start at 11-11:30...can I get a consensus. :thumbup

I fill her to the absolute top. I haven't ridden my FZ10 in anger yet on any roads. I've been getting about 100-105 miles before lights start flashing. Probably 75-90 per tank when I'm on the pipe. It's not a problem...it's about 55-60 mile ride to the gas station in Patterson.

I'll be at Starbucks at 11am...KSU around 11:30-11:45. It depends on if people start getting throttle relapse.

If those guys are leaving Bux at 11:30 we are probably on the road just a bit earlier.

Hey everyone...I'm checking in to see who's going to show up at Starbucks 11:00-11:15. I'll be there at about 10:45am unloading my bike. I'll be out front of bucks on my 17' black FZ10 touring special. I'll be heading out at 11:30-11:45...I want to get on the road and get up to the Junction. Who in? :thumbup
