You guys be careful!!!The road conditions suck donkey balls on that route. I was up there yesterday and the roads are super slick,damp corners with cold pavement.
 
Should be good by the weekend. All these try days will do it well.
 
In!!!!!

I'm in, but I'm gonna have to meet you guys at Betty Burgers (I've got something going in the morning)
 
You people are obviously not Supercross fans. Tailgating, pits, racing, fun??? See you on the Sunday ride instead.
 
I'm in. Starting in Tracy, slabbing it down 680 etc. Anyone else on that route? Leaving Tracy at 7:30 or so.
 
Tried to catch up with you guys at Summit Store but missed you:thumbdown Turned out to be a GREAT day of riding! Hope you had as much fun as I did.

I will miss tomorrow but try and catch the next :ride:ride:ride
 
Was a great day. 15 or so riders, alot of nice roads... some slip n sliding on 9, but everything else was near perfect!

Had a blast... rest up, and we (optional) do it again tomorrow!!

Thanks to Vish & Steve taking care of our unofficial 2nd group!
 
That was a load of fun Brian. I think I'll join you for more mellow rides :laughing
