A picture of Gayle on the back of the FJR? - now that was a couple of moons ago :)

Do you know yet what weekend this will be in September? I'm already booked on the weekend of 9/22-9/24 but open on the others. If it's any other weekend, I'm in.

I too am in the Tri-Valley, just down the road in Pleasanton. Welcome to the group :)

Another of the many forum members I met on Wheatie’s ride back in 2011, I was lucky enough to see Dave and Diane several times over the years. He was a great guy, and I was lucky to have known him.

Well of course I waited too long and had to book a room at the normal rate. :( glad there was still room available at the inn. However if anyone has to drop out (hopefully not) please let me know. Thanks

I’ve been away from the forum for awhile and was so upset to hear of Ray’s passing He was in the crew when I first met the FJR Forum crowd that assembled for Wheatie’s tour back in 2012(?). I know he helped so many people on the forum, and was always good for a laugh and a smile. He...

Just a report on how things turned out re: smoke. Thursday night the air was terrible in LaPine.  You could barely see the fast food joint on the other side of the highway.  I think the AQI reported by Apple was over 300. Friday night we had a pretty good rain (thanks to FJRays orders) and it...

Hi Ray - I know I’m late for everything but the skies have just recently parted and I’m gonna make it for #10!      I’ll take the meat dinner please, and though I know I’m late for the t shirt I’ll take an XL in case there are any leftovers.   I’ve responded to wingshot about taking his room...

I could use the room Wingshot if it’s not already too late.  

Hey Big John - is it too late to get in on this dinner?  I’ve already booked a room at the Caravan Inn for the gathering but didn’t see this one before the cutoff date.    cheers :)

Thanks Zilla - that's the kind of no-nonsense recommendation I need!   Yeah, I was thinking that if I want an RV for a trip I could always rent one - it eliminates all the carrying costs (registration, insurance and storage), and when I'm done with it, it goes back to the rental company and I go...

I didn't actually get too many motorcycling photos from the trip, but here are a couple of the better ones from the track.  I'll try and find a few from my iphone that might be interesting to somebody :) Turn 2 at Barber This is at COTA, I think Turn 8

I've got two dedicated track bikes - an '08 GSXR750, and an '06 ZX6R.  For this trip I towed a 14' trailer with 3 motorcycles inside - the two track bikes and my FJR for when we needed transportation.   There is one company out here on the west coast that rents track bikes - its called Feel...
