2012 Triple Crown Ride 6-29 to 7-1

Hi all,
The ride is from San Diego to North County San Luis Obispo with out going thru Los Angeles.
The dates are 6-29 thru 7-1.
Here is the idea, For northern riders,
Friday meet in San Diego area/ Oceanside grab a common hotel and hang out, (Make fun of Sergio and Ralf).
Saturday southern riders and northern riders meet and head east thru the back country around LA heading toward the back way into Lake Arrowhead and toward the first nights stop in Ojai.
We’ll find a common hotel and have some fun.
Sunday head on Hwy 33 to 58 then it’s the back roads.
After the days riding southern riders have the option to get a common hotel for the night or ride back. Northern riders head home.
The idea is that it will be two days riding with a third day in transit. The difference, as you can see, is that the southern riders travel day will be at the back end of the ride while the northern riders transit day will be in the front.

Rules:
Equipment reliable, charged batteries, fresh tires with enough tread for trip,(no bald tires), proper safety gear,(no chucks tennis shoes nor jackets without armor etc). no arseholes,(we have ways), no one left behind. No one to leave without letting someone know, (important, we will be looking for you if you don’t).

What this ride is to accomplish is to bring together old friends and new.
As Brad Z has said many times this isn’t a race, there are no big breasted women holding 5’ checks and a huge trophy at her feet. This is a fun ride with people who adhere to the Pace and who know how to ride as well as newer riders.

Questions
Just ask
Cya

If Jeff's brings his four banger, so can you.

I need to work on my Jedi mind tricks so I can secure this ride.

Jaytee, you can bring a trike if you'd like to...

Heck, WHEN has the bike ever been an issue? Most of the "northern contingent" has never owned a BMW... hell, I can't imagine to see Brooks on a BMW, if I try!

It's about the people and the ride... that sad: BAN WILLIAMS!



P.S. I hope you guys can convince Tuna to come along and maybe even get Jose back into riding bikes...

Apparently, he still rides on Wednesdays, but spends significantly more time, enjoying his WRX.

I can understand that... anyone who ever drove on, probably can!

Cool. On Saturday, looks like I'll be riding for probably 6-8 hours only to wind up 45 minutes from where I started. Oh well, it's about the journey...

i think you might need to add me to the "make fun of" list, but pleez....do it quietly.

i'm attending the 100 year anniversary of Motorcyclist magazine the night before, and everybody who has worked there (that isn't dead yet) will be there celebrating heavily.

i'll be the one "hanging out" with the hang over.

Jeff ,you had better send me details of the four pass ride,sounds interesting. No late snow up here this year so the western divide road would be nice and dry.
Ralf, anytime you want to come up with the dzer you are more than welcome,spare room and all!My brother was just over from the UK for a couple of weeks so lots of dirt riding and hanging out, great vacation.Going to Lone Pine tomorrow on the Ks to check out campsites for the early June concert in the Alabama hills
