Hey Robb! Thanks for inviting me, you *(*&^%$$#!!!! HAHA! Actually, we're doing an early T-Day at my daughter's home in Reno Sunday because they're flying out to Seattle on the actual day to be with her hubby's folks.
OK, I'm looking out the window, just FYI, and it's 34 degrees at 9:00AM. I took a spin yesterday and damn near froze me nerds off, so dress accordingly mi amigos!
I've eaten at that Pizza place in the pic in Downieville many times with the sports bike club I belong to, good stuff. And there is conveniently a gas station just to the west across the parking lot for ya!
Have a blast and BE CAREFUL of the dried pine needles that you'lll encounter on the road up there!

Yep, they do have 91 octane there. My 07 Gixxer (RIP) drank nothing less.
Oh, not to sound like an old fuddy-duddy here guys, but the sun is in the south now and a good portion of those mountain twisties on 49 will be in the shade. That means a slight coating of very slippery frost in some places (noticed this up VC way the other day). When I finally hook up with you dudes, I want everyone HEALTHY and happy, no crash and burn stories!

Oh, forgot to ask Robb, that's a cool pic of a gathering of busas there in Downieville you posted. Must have been a couple years back, eh? That one guy has an 05 blue/silv like I had! Is that Bosshound waving at the camera? Who there still has those busas and who there now has 08s?

 

[ozz]

Thanks Jim i was defiently going to discuss the road situation with guys before we ride, i was going to go down hwy 20 to Bullards Bar if that trip up higher looks to risky, we will be very carfull


ya that was what im thinking in 07 and everytime i see a pic of my old ride i kinda get misty and stuff

lets see..from left to right its ..mistah187 ..Bosshound ..Captainraymond ..V-Max 2 Busa ..and Mymaster .........pretty sure mistah187 still (Russell) has his gen1 but havent seen him since the Kento-Moto ride in chico last year, Raymond droped off the radar and havent heard from him since last winter, Bosshound (Robert) with his 08 and V-Max (Gene) gen1 are always ready to tear up some piece of asphalt wherever it might be..and of course i hate to even mention it cause if he sees it it will make him feel bad, our Mymaster (Bill) was injured pretty badly on a go down on is way to Kentos pad and is still on the sidelines:down:





oh ya did i metion that the guys that do have gen2s' chose the faster orange/black as opposed to all the other slower colors

 

[CCbusa05]

Ahhhh yes, I do remember seeing pics of that beautiful red beast all tore up and on a trailer last year. Too bad, looked like he put a lot of $$$$ into it.
Have a good guys! See ya SOON!

Jimbo

PS.......hmmmmm............orange/blk the fastest color you say?? Well, hell, I'm out numbered here, so I'll just keep my mouth shut!!

Here is the thread from that ride last year. It was in October and I recall some of those shaded corners being a bit slippery. Oh and the sexy 05 silver/blue beauty is mine, ain't she something?

Your riding biatch on a Harley? ...................................

I've got a friend that just bought a crusier out of Florida off E bay. 98 Honda Shadow Aero 1100, should have gotten it this week or early next week. He may join us sometime. He only works on Sundays, so that may be a problem.

I'll be headed to Downieville thru Bullards Bar and exiting by Graeagle/Quincy on a return flight to Chico. Hope to see you there in the early PM. Watch out for black ice and chronic wet spots on the North side of those hills

The Weather Channel on my puter tells me it's 37 degrees this morning, looks like this ride's gonna start off on the chilly side.
