Spell casting now on.

My vote is in


Fred

Willits is close....
1) for the folks who come down from BC, Idaho, Washington, Oregon
2) for a day ride down to Lake Sonoma and Scagg Springs Rd.
3) for a day ride up to Leggett and the Redwood Forrest via Hwy 1

Less $$ than Pet-the-tuna.

My vote is in...

 :good2: done!!!

Looks like Willits is pulling away!

Willits is good !  :drinks:

Willits was the location voted for at the 2013 WCR.

Randy - RPM

I'm good with Willits...  guess I missed the voting at WCR 2013.  I am a little amazed we don't do one of these things at the coast rather than risk the heat inland.  I had to throw some shit in the game by voting for "other", but I'll gladly do Willits.

Frank

Damn Frank, where the heat ? :lol: Next time you are by the switch please turn it on  :drinks:

Not having seen Willits, I voted for it. Let's see how much fun we can have.

Thanks George!!!!  :ireful: :ireful: :ireful: I have the images of a rally of the past and the good times I missed, and I have to spend the next 3 weeks far from home teaching welding robots, AKA not riding....  :cray: I need a hug and a Kookalooo from my FJ...

Willits works for me...mostly because it works for lots of other folks coming down from Oregon and Canada.  Should be another great rally!

Do we have a date set?

Cap'n Ron. . .

Same time every year, the weekend after Memorial Day. May 30, 31 & June 1. The lodging just emptied out, the LEOs taking a needed break from a holiday weekend, time for Kookalooo and campfire.

Something else we talked about at last years WCR was possibly integrating a track day at Thunderhill into the weekend. I just checked the track schedule and Thursday, May 29th is still available for private rental by us as a group or Friday the Zoom Zoom motorcycle track day group is available and we can each individually attend that event.

It there is interest in possibly doing our own private track day on Thursday the 29th, I would like to know.

So, I am going to create another poll so it can be voted on. If this does move forward, then there will be required deposits for those who will be participating.

I do not have details at this point as I want to see if there is enough interest before spending time sorting this out.

But hey, the 30th anniversary of the FJ topped off with a private track day, can it get better?

The 2008 WCR was also in Willits.  Here is a link to the pictures from that Rally:

I thought we were a bit put off by the new owners of the Willits KOA last rally we had there.  It was very full and they had extended the camp ground to the other side of the creek, behind our cabins.

I do remember one gal being rather pissed we were so "noisy"..  Although her attitude changed when we gave her all of our leftover firewood...

Ring a bell for anyone else?

IIRC, that was 2011.  Southpark, as I recall.

If someones that wants to go RVing quietly they shouldn't stay at a KOA.  They cater more to the family week end family camper crowd (kid's, dogs, cats etc).  I say that from 12 years of almost full time RVing.  Most full time RVer's will avoid staying at a KOA because they are more rustic, noisy, and way overpriced.

There is another KOA over at Manchester Beach ? I have never seen it and have no information on it.  KOA's are a nice fit for club events where you desire some outside space, camp fires and yes a little noise. I am open to go anywhere,  well just about.....  :good2:

This is my Yuma home. Just spreading some January sunshine......

The 2007 WCR was at the Manchester Beach KOA: http://www.fjrally.com/picgallery/gallery.asp?categoryid=23 (http://www.fjrally.com/picgallery/gallery.asp?categoryid=23)
The weather sucked as it was right off the ocean and the Marine Inversion Layer (aka: June Gloom) has us in a total cold fog all the time at the campground.  Hence the move to Willits for the 2008 WCR.

+1 ZARI. Rode through Susanville down through Greenville in November. Very pretty country and the roads are good when they don't have ice on them. Have that same view of south Lake Almanor with my bike pictured in the gallery. Stay warm--Dave

Good info. Fog sucks for sure.....Looking forward to the rally. Motivates me to go out in the cold and work on the FJ.  :good2:

I just dropped of my rear wheel for the 89' to get powder coated today.  :good2: Got to have the front and rear wheels color matched.... :pardon:

Susanville in June would probably be a lot like Porterville was; Too HOT!
