No bueno.

We just need to be on the caution tip.

Hey if we go, serious caution. No pushing it too hard. Just enough to have the fun, but seriously, it needs to be a muy bueno trip! Not the opposite.

a website with some riding tips (gleaned from kawiforums):

http://www.msgroup.org/DISCUSS.asp

I think it's all about staying relaxed and enjoying ourselves, the most emphasized thing during my MSF was to stay relaxed so we don't tense up and can't move our muscles to control the bike

Put a sticker on your bike where YOU can see it at all times that says "Just Have Fun."

Ortega/Banner Canyon Group Ride
11/8.

This is ride down Ortega Canyon; then once we hit Lake Elsinore we bail out to Banner Canyon then up through Julian. The SD heads will need to be the route leaders.

If everyone agrees with that route, we can do the same meet spot when we hit this route last time.

Then LA/OC & SD folks meet at the Chevron (meet @ 9:15-9:30)
27112 Ortega Hwy
San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675


1. jongun78 - SD
2. LA Kawi - OC/LA
3. Bikerboy4Life - OC/LA
4. EazyMeezy - OC/LA
5. gnaime - SD (maybe)
6. -Op- - OC/LA (maybe)
7.

Good plan. Del Mar or Solona Beach maybe? Gas station by there would be good.

Just so everyone hears about it and so anyone can go, a ride through Angels Crest Highway over Thanksgiving week/weekend is in the works. More details to come later. Just wanted everyone to know.

BTW,

I wanted to post up and see who would be interested in checking out the Moto-Tattoo Expo at Del Mar Fairgrounds; the weekend of 11/13. I'm thinking of checking it out on Saturday. Figured I see who else was interested and what day.

Here is a reference to last years.
MOTO-Expo

Did any of the SD folks peep it out last year and if so, how was it?
