ACH and GMR isn't too far so I can make it out
Palm Springs I'm going to have to think about that one

currently my schedule gives me Saturdays free
so if it's on a Sunday I can't do it
but from the way things look I might out of the work force

There is a picture that I posted before showing the twisties going down into Palm springs.

The route is: Meet off the 60Fwy at Jack In The Crack off Box Springs exit for breakfast & fuel. Head East on the 60 into the 10 Exit Hwy 243. go up the hill into Idyllwild for fuel & a break. East on the 74 towards Palm springs & stop at he big lookout for a break & pictures. Down the twisties into Palm Springs backdoor for fuel & a break. 74 Back through the twisties all the way over to Idyllwild & down the twisties into Hemet stop for fuel & a break. Then out Ramona Expressway to the 215N. to the 60W. towards my place......unless since Chiricahua lives close to Hemet, we could always have it at his place :wave .

That would be great in say october when it cools down a little....fat kids sweat alot in leathers :yikes
Plus that goes past my no more than one hour on the freeway rule...I vote either GMR or ACH...what about the BOO? or I could always truck it as long as someone helps me unload one of the bikes.... :happyb

Thanks.

SPEED.
Again: :wtf I thought move/edit, not delete, was what SBW was for. Did you get 3 admin support? Hmm? :confused :moon



ANYWAYS, looks like palm is winning it so far. I'll have to take a look at that map. Looks like everyone wants to wait until it's cooler as well. How much cooler are you guys thinking? Autumn ride or hardcore bikers only winter? :laughing

I don?t mind having it at my place Mikey. :thumbup My wife (Boss :chair ) already said she would BBQ. I was going to offer but then I found out that my Homeowners only allows 15 guests till summer gets over. :headscratch But the Recreation area has a large pool, Jacuzzi, Volleyball courts and BBQ with tables and all. :cheers

If you want to have it earlier, my house is your house. :wave I would need help moving the 60-inch down stairs from my bedroom so that we could watch MotoGP Videos or utilize the X-box. :clapping

We could even have backyard 50 races. Or Pocket bike races. Kids are always welcome. :thumbup

If you want we could do some Moto adjustments in the garage. And there is plenty of room for those who don?t want to ride drive home till the next day. :sleepbed

As for the ride, we could do Paly in the early AM and the Pines to Palms around Noon for those who like to ride all day. :deathmetal Or it could be Dirt in the AM :moon and Pine to Palms in the afternoon.
Or whatever. As long as we ride.:wave


:party :party :party :party :party

Hwy 74 (back door to PS) is my local play ground. If the ride is done here, I can point out the most likely area that are watched by the friends in the black and whites.

If the weeked is right, I don't for see a problem joining and can my other half join in.

Ride safe and ride with in your limits.
