eddd Posted April 1 Late notice, but a mainstay of BMWST gatherings is on for 2021, April 23/24. As usual we'll come in on Friday, ride Saturday, and head out Sunday. Mr. Duck, Don J, called the Comfort Inn and secured a small discount if you mention you are with the BMW group. The motel's number is 559-683-8282. Don will fill us in on the Friday back road ride. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Share this post Link to post

SwamperCal Posted April 2 The ride Saturday? Is it an organized ride together or just ride the area on your own? If it's an organized ride is it on trails or pavement? Share this post Link to post

There are usually a couple of groups heading in different directions. You just need to check with people on Friday evening or Saturday morning to see who's going where and when they'll take off. Rides will be on pavement. It is all quite informal. Share this post Link to post

See ya there Those of you who have not attended this event, be aware that back road ride is extremely dangerous. If you are on a Honda. Correction: a borrowed Honda. 1 Share this post Link to post

And I ran out of red arrows, I actually fractured every rib on that side. Wish I could attend, but no motor, and the uh, ribbing would be annoying. 1 1 Share this post Link to post

Hope to see you on a ride again! 2 Share this post Link to post
