Ive accepted the challenge of organizing a Tahoe ride! Some of the best riding on the planet!  Im thinking late summer, before it gets cold. One day around the lake taking pics being tourists, and a really nice long ride, lunch, dinner, and back to Tahoe. Rooms can be had for cheap these days up here. Anyone interested?

Right on! Ill get some info together before hand.. Should be GREAT weather, as always, and I have some rides already planned around the area. Im gonna check em out first,, contact a lunch place, dinner place, etc..  So far, Im thinking one day riding around the lake real easy for pictures and stuff,, then a real ride one day around 49, from here up to Truckee and around west and down 49,, past placerville and come back up Jacks pass back in to Tahoe,, should be a good 8 or 9 hour day, maybe longer, with lunch and dinner.. I'll get more details together the closer it gets!!

Its the 4th weekend, my tag just came yesterday for my viagra.. getting stiff fingers typing this!!! Its like christmas morning,, she's not done, but done enough for riding!!! Its about time for that Tahoe ride!! When the weekend is over and the hangover is over,, lets try to get together!!!! I have a nice loop figured out, from here go north to truckee and hit hwy 49 around and south to 80/50/ somewhere and come back up,, depends on the length of day.. For you Cali coasters, like Jedi, Maybe we can meet at the northern end of 49 and go south together and split at your favorite road home.. Im open to any and all suggestions!! SAFE RIDING!!!! I have plenty of back yard and some floor space,, Its a studio cabin, but, I dont mind, if you dont. Weather is perfect for outdoor camping in the back yard too!! and like I said,, the dog keeps the bears out mostly..........mostly.

Hey Inane,
Remember the Roswell ride with me and rhpaw, first week in September.. it is on schedule.
Any one else interested.. starts from Littleton CO or Golden.
It is a Harley Hybrid iron butt test for rhpaw.  I know the "V" will be easy on me.

Funk, enjoy your 4th!  Celebrate Patriotism.
