Alright misfits, time be now for another group ride. Out of respect for the possibility of snow or slides in the mountains, I suggest another coast ride. Weather permitting, April 28, 2018, we meet at Starbucks, 260 Northgate Drive, San Rafael 94903. We ride over to Pt. Reyes Station and up the Pacific Coast Hwy. Lunch in Elk, and back down CA128 to Cloverdale. We top off the ride at the world famous Hamburger Ranch; those up for more fun can continue on CA128 to Calistoga and Winters. Looking forward to good weather, good roads, and the camaraderie of good people. Kickstands up at 8:30 AM. Hope you can make it.

I'm in pending "Wife" Approval. :goofy: Let's see if we have more Ducati's than Honda's... :tongue:
I’m down. Ktm won’t be out of the shop by then so I’ll be in the back of the pack riding my fat pig. Look forward to eating some BBQ, I mean seeing everyone again. 🤪
Tj.
Family in town that weekend but I think I can work it out. Thanks Jeff!
Bet you thought I was dead, but I'll see if I can make this happen. I fly back from Chicago the day before.
Would be great to see you weirdos again!
Clearing mice out of the airbox now!
What a response! 6 takers in the first 22 hours...I knew there was something I liked about you guys. And George might be right about the Ducati's outnumbering the Honda's. At least a few of us still ride VFRs.

One of these days we'll join you on a coast ride, unfortunately cant make this one.. Looking forward to seeing all of you in the Sierras later this summer!
I just interviewed for a Job in Reno yesterday... Might be a long ride for me :goofy:
Had a nice 200 mile warm up ride today with Greg and Jeff.
My tires are shot now, so I will order up some new skins!

Hahaha, the 1200...........
Funny I was just looking at my purchase history and I have done tires on 4 bikes this last year, plus the 1200 eats 2~3 sets per year....ouch!
I may bring the RC Tuono to see how it will do on an all-day ride.............

Yes, just have to mount them. should be warm this weekend, which will make them easy for me to get onto the rims......

They are!
But then mentally preparing for the Monday onslaught, requires additional decompression............

Read a book?
Hahaha, I wish - I basically babysit adults for a living..........and fabricate parts.
I have no idea whether either of my bikes even work haha. If not cue the Alfa!
Ashamed to say it but I like that boxer...
No shame here. It's kinda cool to ride a bike where performance expectations are not stellar. It's a gas to ride, and in the hands of a capable rider, would probably raise eyebrows. Those Metzler Roadtec 01's are really confidence inspiring tires. JJ
