Could you call it CaFO? I get confused easily. :huh:

Geezer · Sep 11, 2007

How about LCFO?

Toecutter · Sep 11, 2007

I thought you couldn't find San Luis....

rayban · Sep 11, 2007

Yeah, I dunno if I can make it. Those of us down here south of "Northern Mexico" might not be able to make it up through customs to make it (snicker snicker).

May I make a suggestion as to the location? I have done a couple meets in Paso Robles. 1- It's about halfway between NoCal and SoCal. 2- They have Powerhouse motorsports just in case someone needs a bike shop. 3- They have good BBQ and steakhouses. 4- There are also alot of great roads to check out. Just throwing it out there to think about.

OK, as you can see from the time stamp I was up kind of early this morning, but was thing always called CaFO, or did you take my suggestion and there is nothing to note it. Just wondering if I am loosing my mind at a faster rate than I previously suspected.

ADMIN NOTE: Not losing your mind. It was edited so we wouldn't risk confusion with the fine folks doing the Central regional event.

Or SLO, with it's easy access to Hwy 1!!!

Creston works, or anywhere previously suggested, just make sure it's close enough for the president of the Candy Butt association.

Farmer's Almanac's call for 2008 winter:

Winter be will about two degrees above normal, on average, with the coldest periods in mid-December, mid-January, and late February. Rainfall and mountain snowfall will be above normal in the north and near normal in the south. The stormiest periods will be in late January, early February, and early and mid-March.

Why don't we just have it at Don's house. He won't mind and he as a big bbq :lol:

I am indeed interested. Sherri can't get time off work and doesn't like riding that far in a weekend. So...well...probably solo.

Barabus · Sep 11, 2007

I'm in. No Doubt about it. I always thought this was called the "Gathering of the Clans". Also thought that we were going to ride and camp around Lake Isabella at Fairview campgounds next to McNally's Steakhouse and bar. What do I know?

Silver Penguin · Sep 11, 2007

After the short ride to Hollywood and back, I realized that I was overestimating my recovery rate. That put me down for several days. Saw the doc yesterday and it looks as though I'll be off work for much longer than I expected.

I'm taking the MSF Rider coach classes in October/November and then my folks are coming to visit so....... best time for me looks like December or later. Of course, by that then it might be time for CaFO II.

I'm counting the days until I'm ready for a decent length ride.

Make it so!

Anybody can plan anything they want, anytime they want, anywhere they want . There's no exclusivity here. Just don't call it uh, nevermind....

tcfjr · Sep 12, 2007

I'm in. Paso and SLO have easy access to PCH, SR-58, Carmel Valley Road, Nacimiento-Fergusson Rd, SR-25, SR-229, Santa Rosa Creek Rd, and all the other great Central Coast motorcycling roads. Santa Barbara has TWN, Tepusquet, Jalama Beach, Santa Rosa Road, SR-33. Fantastic riding all around, and there should be great weather that time of the year.

Nah, that's Highlander's gig. For history sake, I say that stays different unless High chucks it to someone else. I think Cali can afford 3 - 4 rides a year... South Coast, Central Coast, Northern Coast and Eastern Sierra region/Death Valley.
