The group I'm riding with is planning to be on the road by 8:30 if all goes well... We'll be making stops at Victorville H-D, Barstow then Ludlow for the last stop before Laughlin.

To all fellow riders going to the River Run. My good friend owns a restaurant/bar in Rancho Cucamonga and is going to open early on Thursday April 22 at 8:00am for us fellow riders. He has excellent breakfast and beverages. We have a good group of people going (around 7 to 14 bikes). We are meeting at 8am sharp at Peppers Sports Bar at the 210 fwy at Archibald. It is in the Stater Bros. shopping center on the Northeast corner. If anyone is looking for other riders we will be there. We take the 15 to the 134 thru Lucerne Valley and 29 Palms out to Amboy and route 66 and we make a few stops along the way. (for us the fewer freeway miles the more scenery). It is a long ride but there is always some great "commeraderie". If interested hit me up on a PM for more info!!!! Btw we are meeting up at 8 sharp and will be leaving around 9ish!

TEN Days until the group I'm riding with departs!!!!!

We leave Thursday the 22nd!

We're meeting at 8am for Breakfast at Denny's off the 10 Fry at Beaumont Ave in the city of Beaumont.... so if you'd like to tag along our group ( about 15+ strong ) come along.... let's make it 100 riders by the time we roll into Laughlin!!!!!

We're taking a scenic and less congested route to the run.

The next fuel stop will be in Needles (75 miles)...stretch, restroom, stogie break, brush the teeth, drain the pipes
