I like the look of this ride...very interesting...maybe :cool

I'd be coming from Walnut Creek :ride
 
Bump for two weeks to go. Hope to see a few Barfers show up.
 
If I don't get interrupted from my normal weekend, I'm in. I did wards ferry for the first time last year. Woner what it's like up there after the storms?
 
TTT for 5 days to go. Looks like the weather gods are going to smile on us.
 
I'm a possible, either on my r6 or a new bike I might pick up this week.
 
I'm pretty sure I can make it but I'll have to use the R1.
FJ is down for suspension service
I'll do the goat roads anyway :teeth
 
:facepalm Sorry, I'm not going to be able to do this ride. The worst season in years has got my allergies going. Love this rain :thumbup, we need it. But this has been a downside.

Have a good ride :ride
 
I'm taking it this ride is still on? Roads might be a bit crappy after this system just went through but I'm still in
 
I was on priest grade last weekend, that road and others were clear and clean. There were some one lane sections, but even those had been cleaned by the multiple rain storms. This looks like a great idea. Count me in and then it is on to Oakland for FNR.

Bump for sunny day tomorrow.

Looks like the following Barfer's will be on the ride tomorrow.

ichabodnt650
Wolfdog
89fj
AnthonyPal

May have 6 to 8 local riders. Should be a good day.
 
Hey Bill...
I'm cleared to go!!!
I'll roll out of Pleasanton at 8:30 and over to Manteca, then up 99.

On the way back I'll probably do Priest - Coulterville Rd to Coulterville then back up 49 to 120, Red Hills, La Grange, Knights Ferry, Orange Blossom, Rodden Rd, then home.

Looks like im out, my pillion needs a new helmet and can't pick one up till 1000am. Anyone have a small helmet she could use haha?

Edit: we're gunna pick up a helmet and then ride out to priest grade anyways. If anyone sees a blue FZ1 riding two up give me a wave!

Great ride today with one exception. 5 riders from Barf showed up, big thank you for making the trip over. ichabodnt650, Wolfdog, 89fj, AnthonyPal and FLHO3RIDER. Hope I showed you a few roads you might have not been on before. Pictures attached. I will post condition of the rider as soon as I get a phone call from his friend on the ride. Had 11 riders going up and Ichabodnt650 joined us at the cafe.
