do you let new (old) guys in? I'd be coming up from Tehachapi so if anybody wants to do a weekend ride from So Cal let me know.

Not likely.
I'll be in New Mexico next weekend so will miss this... but I met Jerry/Slappy in Santa Cruz yesterday... he and his wife recently relocated to Sacramento and are looking for peeps to ride with... I mentioned this ride to him so hopefully he'll find it and chime in so he can meet some of the locals. B)

Perhaps I can adjust my trip to the Bay Area to include lunch "on the way".
Can any of you Sacramento locals give me a hint about Sunday afternoon traffic heading west from Carson City? I recall at the IBR checkpoint two years ago that it was *crawling* from mid afternoon until after dark. (Yeah, I know. It was July.)
Enquiring minds want to know - and the RTE would be fun!

You'll be riding a motorcycle, right? Traffic never crawls in California when you're on a motorcycle.
It'd be great to meet you. Do it if you can. (OK, traffic might be a little heavy, but probably worse later in the afternoon. This is a lunch get-together so we'll be pretty far down the road by heavy traffic time. AND the motorcycle thing too, of course.)
If you can avoid 80 after Sacramento, do it... it is a clusterf*ck especially on the weekends. Hop over to 5 and that should give you a clean shot down.

Haha. Though I tend to plan my riding NOT to coincide with peak traffic hours here in SoCal, I always have a grin on my face while I'm lane sharing.If you can avoid 80 after Sacramento, do it... it is a clusterf*ck especially on the weekends.

I tend to view traffic like I do disease: when you can avoid it, do so. But when you can't, be glad your alive.
Thanks for that tip. (I recall from 2013 that the cluster didn't begin to thin until well west of Davis.) I'll be headed to Concord so maybe Hwy 4 from Stockton?
Hope to see y'all in Carson City.
