    Hey Everyone,
    I can't remember was there ever a date and place set for a west coast convention ? I know we had kicked around a few dates but was one set in stone ? I wanted to plan for time off work and lets do some cool things not just drink in cabins the whole time. Maybe some cool country rides. (speed)

    nothing ever came of it. I am off 4 days a week so if something does end up happening, there is a good chance I could do it.

    I have one week vacation left, I'd be up for Northern California, we tried this idea multiple times and it never went anywhere, I think if about 3-5 of us could agree on a date, we might be able to get some serious riding in, I've already told the wife a week is set aside just for riding.

    Jeez, :frown: I wish this had come up sooner or that I had been paying attention. I'll be in Red Bluff starting my Hwy 36 run June 30 or July 1. Too soon to plan, isn't it...

    I'm pretty flexible. at least that's what my yoga instructor says...

    just kidding, I don't take yoga, but I am off quite a bit.

    well, my schedule opens up even more later in the summer as my yungins head back to MO in Aug. When I get back from there, I work 3 days a week, but if I have notice, I can schedule myself to get 8 in a row off without even taking time off. So, my vote is for late Aug, or in Sep. I was planning on riding up to WA around then anyway so if we work something out and they come down, maybe I can get enough time off to follow them back home woohoo!

    Well, if you're up for it, I say we head up through North CA. Michael is up there near the bay, PlacervilleKG is near Placerville, I have a sis-in law in Sac where we could stop if needs be or we could just meet whomever is coming in up there somewhere and ride around up there, but my ultimate intent is to make my way all the way up to WA to check out all the scenery those guys have posted up.

    I just checked my vacation schedule and the week of August 20 is open, that means I would have from August 18 to the 26th to do nothing but ride, do you guys feel like riding north? I'll meet you in N. California and I'll Guarantee you it will be the best riding week of your life...

    Ok everyone. Here's the skinny. I managed to Aug 22-29th off. I'll be headed north. Anyone who wants to come with is invited. Not sure if I'll be sleeping on the side of the road or what, but I'm headed up there to check out the scenery. I'm gonna try for some luggage while I'm at Laguna Seca this weekend.
