What is a Sena?

Joe, FYI we are a Sena dealer as well. Just type in Sena in the search field and everything will come up.

We will get the 30K loaded next week.

Does everyone typically leave their machines at your shop on Friday night and walk to the motels?  I assume you're not opening up on Sunday so everyone must have to park their bikes at the motel on Sat night.

Joe

Everyone is more than welcome to leave their bikes at the shop. We have had people walk, I have given some rides and even a taxi was used last year I believe.

Plus we get to take a cool shot similar to this.


We will be there Sunday, not sure it will be "early". But we are there every Sunday in the event someone wants to do a little manshed job before they head off. If you are planning on heading out early, then one should probably take their bikes back to the hotel with them.

LOL, every FJ in the front row is wearing a RPM fork brace.

The Holiday Motel and the Holiday Inn Express are both sold out for the dates.  I see there's a Best Western one mile away.  Any other accommodations that you would recommend?

The options are pretty limited.

The Motel 6 is right across the street from the Holiday Inn and the BW is down the street as you mentioned.

:cray: so disappointing I cant be there.

Buddy, you still have a week. If you don't make it, that means you'll be rally-less for 2018 :Facepalm:

That is a travesty :shok:  :shok:

Went out for the recon ride today, what a great day.

Perfect weather, fabulous roads, great lunch and really looking forward to next weekend.

Next weekends forecast is exactly as it was listed today, 80*.

I had some pilot 3's that I ordered for a guy earlier in the year, he never came and got them. So I put them on for this break in ride. I must say, they are a great tire, but the RS provides much more confidence when cranking the throttle mid corner lean.

I pulled over for a quick break and hydration about 100' from where I stopped, a mom and her two kids came walking by. I did not see anymore while riding.

You guys make sure you bring your cameras so you can get some pictures, the view has not been this clear in several years due to fires and it was nice to see the beauty again.

Next weekend is all set for 169 miles of great roads, great views and great times.

Only five more sleeps until it gets underway. I am excited to hear about Andy's European adventure (including Isle of Man) and I don't think I have heard back from Ron since he left the WCR with the General in tow. Those two summer trips were epic undertakings and I can't wait to hear the details.

While driving east on I80 and 50 yesterday, I too noticed how clear the air is.  Typically I can't see the mountains on the other side of the valley while I am crossing it.  Cooler temps too.  I consider you guys to be very fortunate to live so close to the Sierras.  Gorgeous country.

BTW, I got a room at Motel 6 so you can take my name off the possibles and put me in the confirmed list.
