Attn Nor Cal Riders

[head east busa]

ok so is this a route everyone is good with ??

This is just a suggestion on route. The northern route.
Meet in Napa up 29 to healdsburg up to ukiah, Orr springs road to comptche, flynn creek rd to 128 to boonville. back to cloverdale 101. Back 101 or Hopland grade to 29 back down the valley.

If so then lets all figure out where we are hooking up at. If not speak now or forever hold your peace.

Napa is 15 minutes from my house, so that works!

[head east busa]

Meeting time & location please.

After the pre ride we'll let everyone know when and where most likely early in the AM so we can get plenty of daylight riding in this way if anyone needs to jump off early they can still ride back while the sun is up. so I will post up either next monday or tuesday depending on when BA is available. But it's on

[BA BUSA]

Meeting time & location please.

Dave and I will be getting together next Monday to pre ride the route...so we will post up the details that night with the time and place. We will also pm you with the info.

It looks like every body will be coming in at the south end of napa on 29, so take Imola exit to the right go to the standard station on the right. About two blocks. Time ???

That looks like a lot of straight boring road to me.

How are you getting to Healdsburg from Napa 29 and 128?(mostly straight) The first few miles of Flynn Creek look to be unpaved then straight to 128. That section of 128 to Boonville isn't very exciting. Boonville to Cloverdale is ok.

I would suggest meeting at The Corners, Capell Valley Rd and Monticello Rd. About 10 miles NW of Napa. Then running the fun, less traveled stuff North, Capell Valley Rd, Lower Chiles Rd., Butts Canyon Rd. into Middletown. Then 175(Hopland Grade) to Lakeport(Gas). A short run north on 101 to 253 west to Boonville(lunch). That keeps you south of Ukiah, more likely to get wet the further north you go. If the weather gets wet then bail on to 128 back to Cloverdale, if not Mountain View Rd west to Hwy 1. South on 1 to Stewart's Point/Skaggs Springs Rd. Turn south on Dry Creek Rd. back to 101 at Healdsburg. End it and split up there.

Start to finish 215 miles. Should give everyone time to get back to the cribs before dark. Maximum time on the twisties, a taste of the coast and some of the best M/C roads your tax dollars have ever built, 253, Hopland Grade and Skaggs.

Hey, just a little question....does anyone have bike to bike comm? Me and Sigsaur just installed a mind numbing high end comm system on my bike and I'm anxious to try it! (actually he did all the genius work, I just paid for it!). Doyle

my bike to bike communication involves hand signals
But it's better than my bike to car signals
