I am so happy that you are coming to the rally.
It's going to be dirty, that's all I know.

I did sort of a Mendo Grand Tour, watchtower thing on the KLR
last year ... leaving on Tues afternoon, and getting back
to work the following Tues ...
would love to
try that again ...
looks like there's a watchtower
on State Mtn north east of Weavervile on the
east side of the lake ...
... then there's the Eddy Gulch and Bully Choop watchtowers ...
... could try to meet up on
Anthony Peak on Wednesday night ...?
... we'll see, I talk a lot ...

How dirty? Will I be okay with the viffer? I can always do different roads right?

You'll be find on the VFR. There is some AMAZING street riding up there, and most of the dirty stuff in question is dirt road/fire road type of stuff that can be done on any bike. Fear not.

SFMCJohn takes a dirty route. On your viffer you'll have your choice of smooth delicious curves, goaty fun and amazeballs sweepers.
No dirty times unless you want them.

Hard to go wrong , rally/racing
I thought I would skip Laguna this year and show some support to Sonoma round.
That said, after returning from a nice week in SoCal, it's raining up here today....a true Humboldt county welcome home event...lol.

Slight temporary thread jack...
Dunlop has a promotional offer of two (or four) free tickets to MotoAmerica races in Sonoma and Laguna Seca for the purchase of 2 Dunlop tires. Q3's or Roadsmart III's. Some locations (Sonoma) also include a $40 rebate!
See the offer---> HERE.
Now... back to our awesome regularly scheduled topic.

I'd love to! But, it all kinda depends on when we do our trip to Colorado (trying to juggle what days we can take off, dog-sitting, etc.). Will keep you posted.

went up there a couple of weeks ago. The 3 north of weaverville seems to have a lot more tar snakes than I remember. One of our group hit one and ended up in a ditch and had a ride in a helicopter.
Streams are running heavy, lots of snow up top, is still a super awesome place to be. I may go again this year, but will see.

Callahan to Cecilville
For my money the very best ride is the Cecilville Rd, from 3 at Callahan to Cecilville. Well-paved, smooth predictable sweepers one after the other up and over the mountain. Better than the state hiways. After Cecilville the road is too goaty for me, so I just turn around and do it all over again.
You can do two round trips in a day. There's a cafe in Callahan so you can top up there with beer and a burger or whatever between trips. Gas is in Etna, not far up route 3.
