    There was a break in the rain here in the valley mid day on Saturday. I took the 630 for a rip a short way up the start of the foothills this side on the valley. It looked like it was raining pretty good across from here in the foothills of the coast range. Stony is farther south then from where I could see..anyway..I hope they refund your $ for the campsite reservation.
    630 plug... Frick the bike has some long, strong legs. I passed 2 cagers at 85mph, darn near at a 45 degree angle to my left because of the wind, (OK, it felt like 45*, prob. was more like 50* :D) and the bike was crusing and wanted to go faster. My old DRZ S would have been fighting hard to get this speed in the wind.

    Maybe I can make it out when you guys set a new date. Got my exhaust off right now. Should be in the mail on its way back to me from George at Up Tite. Can't wait to see what he has done.[IMG]

    Sweet! Sounds like you and the 630 are getting along great [IMG] Glad to hear there was a break in the weather. Warm temps are forecasted for the following week so maybe some of that snow at Stonyford will melt. We're working on a new date here pretty soon.

    We ended up heading to central CA. We rode Ballinger Fri and Sat, then headed out on the big bikes Saturday afternoon for some Carrizo Plain action, then spent Sunday on the sunny coast. We got hit by maybe 20 raindrops all weekend and conditions were absolutely EPIC! I love it down there.

    I have been wondering if they were kind enough to refund the deposit you put down for that weekend?

    Thanks, guys, but I wouldn't worry about it. They refunded 2 of the 3 nights, and there was a $10 cancellation fee. No way am I going to ask for you guys to pay for a campground when you didn't even get to ride!

    We're keeping an eye on the weather (it was 79 degrees in the town of Stonyford yesterday [IMG]) and we're thinking sometime in the end of April or early May [IMG]

    Edited first post with new dates! May 13,14,15

    The trails are in pretty good shape. Eric and I spent last weekend riding there. The "teens" trails are still under snow but they should be good to go by the new dates of May 13,14,15.
    Of course, the trade-off will be some dust on the higher exposed trails, but it will make for nicer camping. I've reserved the Gray Pine group campground again and we are on!

    Please let me know if you can make the new date! It is after Mother's Day but 2 weeks before Memorial Day [IMG]

    Excellent! We're both looking forward to seeing you again!

    That's a big bummer [IMG] Sorry to hear it, but the make-up date selection was kinda tough for various reasons. Maybe we can get together sometime when you're on your way to/from Porterville [IMG]

    We both have a side job that makes us work on the weekends sometimes. (Gotta pay the $1K+ cat vet bill somehow :eek:) Well pooh on that side job as it is making us work on May 14th. We won't be able to do any camping that weekend, but we can get out there Sunday the 15th for some dirt.

    Okay...

    I'm probably going to cancel the group campground if it is not needed. I really need to know who is going to come and who isn't. If at all possible, can I please get a confirmation either way from everyone by no later than April 28th? That will allow me to cancel the group campground without it costing me money again.

    Thank-you.
