*Moved* Roll Call - VC - Tahoe Loop Saturday 5/13

GreenMachine · May 10, 2017, 12:08:44 PM

Clockwise loop, VC to CC, to S. Lake Tahoe home and around west lake. Either return view north lake and Mt. Rose or through Truckee. South route ride.

Planned 9:30 AM kickstands up (KSU)*. Conditions are somewhat unpredictable. This is a C pace ride, so all riders should feel comfortable with the pace.

RSVP** if you're planning on going. If you do not RSVP, the ride may be canceled even if you had planned on showing up the day of the ride. We'll depart on the ride as soon as everyone arrives and is ready, meaning, that if there are any newb riders, I will go over some of the key items they'll need to know.

South route ride. Anticipate roadway water runoff along our route.

As always, see 2017 SSA Ride Schedule for everything that is expected of you and what you can expect. *** Safety is paramount. ***

Hope to see you there.

* KSU dependent on when everybody is ready.
** RSVP - répondez, s'il vous plaît a.k.a. please reply.

Sounds like fun. I'm in !

Should've looked at the title more clearly. If you're doing this on Saturday, I won't be able to do it. Besides, isn't Sunday Mother's Day ? I'm out out either way 😩

I didn't do a very good job at defining the ride title. Yes, Sunday May 14th is Mother's Day. We typically have a ride scheduled.

Too bad you can't make it. There's always next weekend. At least until the end of September.

If you change it to Sunday, I can make it. Saturday I cannot. Have fun if you go Saturday.

Bummer, I'll be in Carson City going thru my instructors training. Swing by the DMV range and you just might see me.

GreenMachine · May 12, 2017, 03:11:42 PM

The forecast showed rain on Sunday, which is why I switched the day to Saturday. But now it appears Sunday only has a change of showers, which we can usually ride around.

Still, it's going to be chilly on either day in the AM hours.

Would you guys prefer to risk it and ride on Sunday instead?

dub · May 12, 2017, 06:25:19 PM

I don't think you will get wet on Sunday.

Wade68 · May 12, 2017, 09:01:54 PM

I am good for either day. Saturday sounds good tome if there is a choice. Either way I will trying out the new Concours 14... Yee Hah!

rg500nut · May 13, 2017, 08:41:31 AM

did you ride today? or are u going tomorrow?

GreenMachine · May 13, 2017, 09:26:17 AM

Wade & everyone,

I've moved the ride to Sunday. Sorry, I didn't check the forum last night and now it's too late to get to this ride on time.

Gonna work around the house today instead.

See any of you guys tomorrow.

rg500nut · May 13, 2017, 05:51:33 PM

RG will be @ Mavericks for KSU. Better if we waited to 10:00, might be warmer.

See u there GM......and others....

rg500nut · May 13, 2017, 08:12:16 PM

9:30 or 10:00??

GreenMachine · May 13, 2017, 08:23:44 PM

I'm out for doing Tahoe. Could get a late start and just do VC. If you're still up for riding VC, I'd say 10:30. Brrrr!!! If you want to do Downieville and perhaps over to Nevada City, we could do 10:00. For VC, that's south route start. Downieville is north route start.

I rode for a tad today and it was bone cold chilly. Far better in California. Downright nice, actually. Not very enjoyable in Nevada.

Wade68 · May 13, 2017, 09:43:05 PM

I rode the VC, CC, to South Late, to Incline and across Mt Rose to Reno today by myself. Not hot, but I was riding. I will tomorrow also, just hope others are willing. What time at the Maverick?
