Typically you can slate it down as a half-day ride, and we usually start heading to our respective homes around 2:00.
Basically there's no "official" time frame on the rides, we like to keep everything mellow and stress-free. Some guys may want to ride longer and some might need to leave earlier due to prior obligations. In either case, it's all good.

Yeah, we can cruise in together. I live in Redlands, so as far as I know, I'm the furthest east of anyone. I'm skipping the Rammstein concert to head over for breakfast.

Let's kick off the Kawasaki train!

I'm waiting for a battery, ordered it last week on line. Thought it would be here by now. I rode last weekend, but Blaze is sputtering and backfiring. I'm hoping it's because the electrical system is about dead.
If the battery doesnt fix her, I'll need to bow out this time.
I'll keep Grantl posted.

Oh man, my gal is sputtering and backfiring as well. Only when it's above 90 degrees though. My gut is telling me she's running a tad rich and I need to drop the needles.

I plan on leaving around 8 AM, headed west on Interstate 10. After I leave Redlands, where's the next stop?

Mark (mtbspeedfreak), 8 am from Redlands would put you on the 10 west going through Covina around 8:20-ish.
If you want to meet up with me in Covina (Citrus blvd. exit) and ride to Rudy's house in Whittier just let me know and I'll shoot you a private message with contact info.
