Why don't we make this Noon Pacific Time on the 28th in conjunction with the ride. That way we have some time and can get an announcement up so it gets some exposure.

That Was My Thought, NGW As One, But For Those Who Wish To Do Both, By All Means Bow Your HEad At Noon Today Pacific Time...

And Don't Forget That The 28th Everyone Can Take A Ride With Cookie Aswell...

That's a tough weekend, but I will do my best to attend. RR I'll PM you for directions.

I very much regret that I won't be able to make the ride as my wife and I will be in Colorado. So today, I did a solo ride for Cookie. This ride is something he and I had PM'd each other about last year. I offered to put he and Christine up for the weekend if they wanted to do Tahoe at some time. It never happened and I regret that.

So, in some photo's, here's the 101 mile ride I'd have taken with him had I got the chance...

Heading out from my place...


Heading east out Pleasant Valley Road towards Tahoe - 10 miles of twisty and green


At mile 10. Stop and gawk! Doesn't get any prettier than this.


'Field of Dreams'


Some real 'bargains' along the way...




Mile 15 - Slow for wildlife


Mile 26 - Pass Jenkinson Lake. That's the Sierra's and Tahoe in the distance


Mile 30 - Stop and stretch at Angle Falls


Miles and miles - Chase the river up the mountain


Keep going...


...and going


Mile 40 - 5 thousand feet, some snow in sight and it's still 75 degrees.


A 'Highway Totem' along the way. He's a happy guy!


Mile 45 - 6 thousand feet. Turn off the highway and start climbing. This road is a test.


Mile 48 - Still climbing


Mile 50 - 7 thousand feet and at the top. Look around, then...


Head back down!!


Thought of Cookie the whole way. I think he would have liked it...

Absolutely Gorgeous!!

Wow! Great photos! I'm sorry to say that I won't be able to make it to the ride either...

I should make the memorial and ride on the 28th. I'll talk to Snowfan and see if he can make it too.

I'll be there...

I've got it. Snowfan and I should be there.

I plan on being there as well.

Packing The Bike And Heading Out The Door.... Cold, Cloudy And Threating Rain.... Thats What The Frog Toggs Are For.
See All That Show Tomorrow And Everyone Be Safe And Enjoy The Holiday Weekend.

It's Not To Late Ask Any Moderator For The Address If Anyone Decides To Go, Remeber The Moment Of Silence Tomorrow At Noon PAcific Time And Those Hwo Can't Make It Have Your Own...

Be Safe One And All And See You All In A Few Days...

Ride Safe Rebel and watch out for the massive potholes up on I80.There is a chance for snow this weekend up on top. HWY50 might still be closed at Echo summit. JB

Letting you know Rebel arrived safely .... and only ranting a little bit about his distaste for Bay Area traffic

Christine

Glad to hear it, Thanks.

Thoughts with you tomorrow.
