I know several people are out of town, and I can only ride in the morning till like 1:30 but I wanna ride, if the Volcano thing isn't happening maybe we can just meet up and go for a shorter ride...

I don't mean to interfere with ride plans of the best sportsbike riding group in the area (SSA), but it seems that there is little interest in a group ride today....................soooo, I thought I'd just throw this out here, since it's an annual event and should draw 40 plus riders:
If anyone wants to attend a large sportsbike group event, don't forget the NSC John Petty Memorial doing the Downieville loop today, Sunday. Turn key at 9AM, Starbucks at intersection of McCarran and Lake Pyramid.  :)

Some of the more active members of the SSA have been at the AMA races at Infineon, and now Millers. Next weekend will be the SSA trackday. It's also 'vacation' time for a lot of people. So yeah..I can see how it is tough to get a group together. I put in 300 miles yesterday. Went with the VFR group with ScotInExcile. NICE bunch of guys. We did Monitor, up over Luther Pass, Spooner, Truck route Geiger followed by a BBQ at ScotInExciles place. Was a nice day and the weather was PERFECT.

Personally, I ride on Saturdays (and some mid-week) and not on Sundays or I would be down for a ride today. Next Sunday I'll be doing the track. 

The Volcano ride is fun. Nice quiet roads in some very pretty county. Wish I could go!
