HELP!!!! HELP!!!
I'm at the Hilton Garden Inn Calabasas right now, drove up from San Diego.

Stopped at San Altos to get a new rear, so I'm on nice tasty Stradas and have them about scrubbed in and feeling great.

I've read back over the thread (from the hotel shared computer) now that I have time to relax, and I'm corn-fused.

Did I go too far north? Was I supposed to meet you guys down in LA at the 101? I thought twowheelnut said to be at the 76 in Ojai at 8:30am????

Did I just miss part of the ride by coming up this far by myself???

Someone in charge please post a list of meeting times and places, since it sounds like different folks plan at being at different points along the way. Sorry, I'm new to all this and was expecting a more unified source/statement of information, all the replies and reply/reply/reply nested stuff got very confusing to my pea brain.

If I'm already in Calabasas (Oxnard). I have my gps, as well as the crackberry's google maps and access to email, just someone get in touch with me and give me a definitive answer, please. Thanks in advance.

twowheelnut and jdog have my direct contact info. PM's to me here won't do much good after I log off and go back to my room, but I'll try to check again in the morning before breakfast.
Nope, you are still south of the 1st pick-up point in Ventura. 101N. Exit Victoria Ave, turn right and left into Carl's Jr. about 4 blocks up. They book at 8 AM and these dudes book! You are about 30 minutes at (FJR speed) away from that point. ;)

Thanks, dude, I'll be there between 7:15 and 7:30, should give me time to top off, whiz and get situated. Will leave the hotel here around 6:45a. Many thanks again.

Ya Know?

Ordinarily, I would have been "All over" this ride with Bells on! But I leave in the O'Dark:30 for the yearly family vacation Manana~!

You guys have a safe ride over my local roads, and NO MORE... broken ribs, Ya Hear?

Watch for gravel on 58, for slippery tar snakes, and cattle that have decided to break through a fence to get to the greener stuff on the road edge!

cheers,

 
So did we decide where to get our grub on yet?????? :umnik:
I don't know I am lost already, I hope Tims Zumo is working.

Richard
No GPS. The Zumo is not here yet and the 276C is boxed and read to ship to Heidi, so I just gonna whet my finger and see which way the Strom takes me. Yeah, that's right, the Strom. FJR is still up on it's centerstand sans wheel, brake caliper and 1 rotor bolt. Why is nothing ever in stock in California? :glare:

Yo, Donny! Where's lunch at?

ahhhhwwwwwww fuck TWN... " he who falls behind gets left behind as our sweeper" :fuck:

Ittty bittty 650

whats up with the Feeeejr

Wrong 1st stop will be in Ventura At the Chevron Station 101 and Victoria will depart at 8:00am to Ojai stop

 
OK, sorry for the delay JB et al...

Me n' the lady are supposed to meet the gang at Cerro Noreste /166 at 10 to 10:15..

MapSource sez it is 2 hours 20 minutes to Creston = 12:35..

Ok..photobucket is really messing with me right now.. can't display the pix here.

it won't allow me to paste the route... fuck!

Maybe a link will work..

The route from Cerro Noreste to Creston..

and the route from 101 South to Atascadero to Creston

JB and north guyz - Creston is a very small town.. VERY small. You can't miss it. We will have lunch at the Long Branch, Webster and and 2nd Street, Creston, 805-238-1152; this place is 'with attitude' and kind of fun. If you desire more than burgers and fries, less than 1/10 mile away is the Loading Chute with better food, more money, 6350 Webster Rd, Creston, CA 805-237-1259.
