Cali Rally?

[dragxs11]

Did the shopping last night. Pretty well set up to feed everybody for breakfast I think(refer to other thread for menu). Got fire logs and beer for the evenings. If anyone wants to use the stove or micro for dinners your welcome to it.

Anyone want to exchange #'s, I'm riding solo 400+ miles friday, and while I'm not expecting a break down it would be nice to be able to reach some of the folks at camp in case I'm closer to the end of the trip then the beginning. I've got Ralphs, but I'm not as brave as he is, I don't want to post my cell number in "public" so please PM me.

[DiverRay]

I AM going to make it!! Fixed the MNS exhaust with the TIG, so I'm on my way Friday afternoon from Santa Cruz area. psyco, my cell is in the upper right side, the 831-. Give a call if you are down US101, and Ed and I will try to hook up with you! We should be out of here about 3:30 PM Friday.

Fun

Wow, well I really enjoyed meeting everyone and getting a good ride in on Saturday. I am fortunate that I was out here and able to get to the rally. What a great group of people. Thanks for all the wonderful memories. I hope to see you next year.

[DiverRay]

Well, the photo's I've uploaded can be seen at: http://rjmatteis.com/images/2010_CenCal/01.jpg . Just increment the 01.jpg up one number at a time! The first five or six are 3phase and I working on Special Ed's bike. Notice the way we have the steed tied too the rafters, and are into the guts!!
The rest of the pictures, from about 07 on, are of the rally. I just uploaded what I thought are the best shots. If you would like to look through ALL of the pictures, send me a line and I'll upload them all for you. They are from 2 to 4MB PER PICTURE, so I didn't try to "post" them.

Gosh Scott is talented I didn't know he was a plumber too

[3Phase]

Hey now! A plumber?! Methinks me should start exercising a bit because I'm beginning to resemble a beached seal but a plumber is just totally over-the-top! Besides, I don't drink enough beer to be a plumber.


Apparently, just doing Deadercise along with the newly-arrived Grateful Dead Road Trips Vol. 3 No. 3 that I got for my birthday won't do it but it sure makes working on the bike a lot more fun!

Great pictures, Ray, the ocean just pops into view on that road.

Judson, I'm glad you made it this year. We'll have to go for some local rides now that there's someone closer than two hours away from me!

[latexeses]

DiverRay,
Very nice pictures! Looks like a terrific place to cruise.
Did you come across many riders? That one shot of the campground or day use or whatever it was right on the beach must really get a workout.

[Special Ed]

Great pictures Ray! It makes me feel less guilty about not taking pictures myself! I decided early on that having SWMBO, AKA Gypsy along that we would just come along for the ride.
What a wonderful Rally! 17 bikes! In addition to re-connecting with old acquaintances’, we met some great new riders, some whom I felt like could develop into real friendships if we lived close enough together: GarthXS, Restorganize and Psycoreefer come quickly to mind.
Our trip up PCH through Big Sur was pretty much a waste. It was foggy and all we could see was about 300 feet on any side. As a group, we were really lucky that we were so blessed with the idyllic weather we had.

Thanks Ed that sure was a funny story you told us, are you going to post that drawing Gypsy made I never saw the finished product
