Ride to the CMSP meeting with CityBike - October 25th

Those of you in the know, know that Budman is a member of the CMSP Advisory Committee. Ride with us to see him do his thing, and help us show the CMSP how much motorcyclists care about rider safety and how our money is spent!

The ride will start at Middle Harbor Shoreline Park in Oakland, 2777 Middle Harbor Rd, Oakland, California 94607. Meet up at 10:30, kickstands up at 11.

The meeting itself runs from 1 to 3 PM. CHP Headquarters is at 601 North 7th Street, Sacramento, CA 95811. IMPORTANT: you must email your contact info to cmsp_unit@chp.ca.gov before the meeting for access.

The Facebook event page is here. If you're going, and you're not one of those anti-Facebook people, it'd be great if you'd RSVP over there.

Rider turnout matters. We keep bringing groups of riders to the meetings, leading Assistant Chief Chris Costigan to open one of the recent meetings with these words: “Bigger turnout than we’re used to. Usually it’s just committee members, and a couple—and by a couple I mean two or three spectators. So, obviously there’s a peak in interest on something, so we’ll figure that out.”

Please arrive early at Middle Harbor with a full tank. We'll be rolling out at 11:00 AM sharp, to make it to Sac with time to spare before the meeting at 1 PM.

Fish, AKA Jalopyshoppe will be leading the group to Sac. It's a midday ride, so traffic shouldn't be too bad, but you should be comfortable with lane splitting in heavy traffic to join us on this ride. The ride is only to the meeting—you're on your own afterward.

My thing is not that exciting, but as Surj said having a good showing is important. Having more eyes on those that spend our tax dollars is a good thing.

Hope to see you!

I emailed info and signed up on FB. Will meet you there. I will be riding up from Stockton if any valley riders want to to shoot me a PM.

My hypoglycemia is a concern, yes. :teeth

That's not the reason, tho. Intense abdominal pain yesterday & today, labs taken, one result in so far. :party

I'm 2/3 done with my life so far, treating my body like a defiled temple. :party

I'm grateful that I was able to join the ride up to Sac yesterday.

I finally go to see for myself how these things go. Budman did a great job and I totally appreciate that he's at the table keeping these people on their toes.

I met some great people, too.

Can someone direct me to Enchanter? I'm looking for a sponsor to become a CMSP instructor. I searched his name and came up with nothing. Am I spelling it wrong?

Thanks!
