    Dayam. Moon was HUGE tonight. There's gonna be some great riding out here.

    I know of at least 4 different groups of riders that will be out this way Nov 6/7. Keep your eyes open for riders going in the opposite direction.

    Hey Wally, got an addy for the place you guys are meeting at? Looks like a handful of us are going to be camping in JTNP Sat. A few of us plan on showing up around 8-830am Saturday, but check in at the park isn't until noon. We definitely want to hit the dirt with y'all, so i'm thinking of just parking our truck at the meet location, if its cool and all that shit.

    Let me know:ear

    .
    P.S. it would be nice to have a contact on your end that we can call if something happens, or we're running late or something. Can you PM me someones Cell # for contact?:deal

    Yeah there's room.

    Free: On street in front of or beside house. Also empty lot(s) beside house. Also parking lot for former model homes. Lots of people park RVs in lot at Desert Hot Springs Spa too. Bring a hose if you want to fill tanks but probably not necessary.

    Pay: Full Hookups available at one of the many hot springs mobile home parks in the area on Dillon Rd. The RV park on Indian Canyon is nearby and Very nice.

    PM sent.

    Parking your truck is no issue. If parking in the driveways just leave room for bikes to get into and out of garages. See above post for other parking options.

    What's up fellas? I heard there are 3 rides out there from bubbles. Guess she's been talking to you a bit Wally. She told me there are 3 decent rides out there. A flat desert ride, and intermediate one and a balls to the walls one. Don't quote me on that one.

    Anyways, most of the people from our end have plenty of experience, but do you think you can plan the intermediate one for Saturday? Most people on our end would much rather head out with your group seeing how you know the terrain so well. Would that be cool with y'all?

    Lately, we are going to book a group site in Cottonwood. We anticipate 4-6 peaple from our end but don't want to get hassled about how many vehicles, tents and shit like that. We are going to have ample room. So, any of you guys want to pitch a tent you're welcome to come on over. Even if it's just to party so we can keep the Boy Scouts up all night! LOL.

    Looking forward to the dirt!:clap

    i know that myself, notmybikemodelname, Wally Whirled, Scorpion, and Riceless are riding on Sunday.

    not sure what the other ADV FF's are doing on Saturday.

    i'm sure someone will chime in.


    does the KLR650.net folks have GPS tracks or a plan to what you're riding?

    Nope, we were all kinda planning to just go out with your crew on Saturday. We can figure it out if it comes to it. But, getting out with some folks that's been-there-done-that, would be even better. :1drink

    Ooo. A sausagefest! Hope you can you fit me in.

    With any luck some of us FFs who are riding and partying earlier in the weekend can get some local women intoxicated enough to attend.

    I hear Razr and Ben99r1 are showing up with a pedophilevan full of girls.

    Maybe someone else has tracks.

    It's pretty hard to get lost inside the park boundaries but it's pretty easy to miss turnoffs for trails leading into the park or on trails outside the park.

    The bike is coming along. I found out this morning that my forks are not bent.:clap They were twisted so much that I figured they were for sure. I still need a speedo and headlight mounting bracket its in the mail. I should also start looking for a new headlight fairings. I am still not sure If I can show up Saturday night or Sunday morning? But damn I would like to make it to the sausage fest hot tub party. Ben
