Snow is supposed to be Saturday. Roads should be fine on Sunday. I'm still planning on doing the run.

My Dad lives next to you in Big Bear. Went there for Thanksgiving and there was plenty of snow on the east side of the mountain by way of Hwy 38. Not sure about the west side on Hwy 18. I most likely won't be able to ride up there for about 4 more months.

Sucks.....cuz I love riding up to my Dad's place.

Plans being what they are, tho, it looks like it'll be January before I can get out there again. I'm looking into taking a bus out there to retrieve my bike.

???

what?

you live in orange county, where you can ride all year round but you park your bike *in hesperia* where you *cant* ride it daily. and your "plan" is to drive out and visit it every couple of months?

really? you prefer to drive the car that much?

why not just uh, keep the bike at home, and yknow, ride it everyday? if you want to go to hesperia, you could "ride the bike there". its like 60 miles at the most?

why would you "plan" to drive out there and visit the bike on the weekends?

i dont get it.

Go figure...

Even if the Sporty is in the garage, I don't ride it every day. I don't commute on it, and I have some other toys that take up time.

You can't get over ten miles an hour because of all the snakes and alligators on the road. The mosquitoes can punch holes in your gas tank if you ride at night. Tornados are a dailey happening and what with the sink holes and tidal waves I'm sure you will all be happier staying up north. (Oh, did I mention the skunk apes?)

Yea, what Honest Bob said.......
