I've been holding 2 cabins for Marsh and Klavdy and I just got word that they will not be coming to the Rally.

With the news of no Marsh or Klav, who is going to be in charge of the ride routes for this year? It looks like it is going to be a record turn out for this years WCR, the FJ 30th anniversary version, and hopefully a couple of great ride routes can be sorted out before we get there.

Unfortunately, I cannot do it, I have way to much on my plate and if I take on anything else, there might not be any FJ's for me to attended with.

Marsh, get well soon, I understand injury as I was gimped up last year and could not ride and Klav...you will be missed.

No worries Randy, we have been to Willits before...

*Generally* what we have done in the past is to ride south on Friday, to Lake Sonoma out Skaggs Springs to Stewards Point, up Hwy 1 to Hwy 20, then inland to Willits...

Saturday, Hwy 20 out to the coast up Hwy 1 thru the redwoods to Leggett, down the 101 to Willits.

Nice 4-5 hour rides each day....I think Marsh has the route maps saved he can e-mail us...

???uuuuh, wrong end of the state....

You missed it by about 600 miles (hint: a mile is longer than a kilometer)

We can discuss it over coffee, bacon and eggs at 06:30.... Bring your maps!

Oh God I'm gonna love this....

About half the population on the West Coast is on that map...... If anyone wants to be in a tour mode while there let me know.  Let me know if there is anything I can do to help out.
