Hey guys - just a heads up that I received a message from the KOA that some of the deposits for the Kabins hadn't been paid yet and that they would have to release those Kabins soon.  I didn't even know that you could make a reservation without a deposit - but I thought I'd pass the message along anyway.  I've been working my ass off and sparse on this forum lately...I'm sorry about that...reading all of your posts is normally one of the highlights of my day.  I can't wait to see everyone at the WCR soon!

I just got my deposit back. Had to cancel out. My nephew decided to get married the same weekend as the rally. If I don't show up my family will disown me. I canceled my sabbatical too. Was looking forward to spending a month riding around the country. With the rally in the middle. Guess I'll have to make it next year.

Looking forward to being there. Old and slow but, there

You can relax , Buddy.

I reserved site 263, a tent site. There is room if anyone is thinking about tenting it. The site is for 6. I asked what the dimensions of the site was and he didn't know but said it was big enough for two tents ?

Hey George,

Looks like I'm going to be able to make it down and would appreciate sharing your tent site. 

I'm riding down from Central Oregon past Crater Lake and down the NorCal coast.

This week in Petaluma...

The 40 year anniversary of the filming of the movie American Graffiti.
http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2013/05/17/petaluma-set-to-celebrate-40-years-of-american-graffiti/

The movie was a George Lucas production and is based on the cruising scene of Modesto California.

George Lucas was a classmate of my mother in the late 50's, I was born and raised in Modesto and currently work there for my "day job".

Now, I will be in Petaluma in a couple weeks and I only mention it because there is a lot of coincidences.

Hey Baldy, what flight are ya on? I think that day is wifey's birthday...Might take her for coffee at one of those posche international coffee shops! ...while I`m there I might make sure that lottery ticket money will get through Airport red tape - both ways!
It`d be a shame if we have ta go over there individually (or vice versa) just to comply with customs!

I just found these old links I created 8 years ago for our Petaluma Ride routes.  Tried and proven - they are good ones!
