Updated and added some ride files to the first post. I'll have my computer with these files for download to your GPS. Bring your Garmin USB connector cable in case it is different than mine. The Trona Pinnacles and North Park routes could be real iffy for gas so carry extra.

Achtung Uberkul: Brad, please add AZ Beemers DaveO and Jerry to your FODS V Attendance List. Also, please remove the two AZB Canadian Snowbirds and my New York relatives John and Julie. See you on Thursday!

Jerry, Send a Private Message to DaveO and Mark Nelson here on our AZ Beemers Forum. I will also get this message out to Jim in Phoenix at www.fjrforum.com The four of you can ride up together to the Longstreet Inn in Amargosa, NV.

I apologize I have not been keeping up with the site as diligently as i should have. I am booked at Longstreet and plan on attending the Death Valley Days ride. When and where is everyone meeting up to ride to Death Valley?
I have a room booked in Death Valley. These rides sound like a great time, thanks for putting this together. It sounds like there are people riding up, if there is room in the group I would like to join. I am not sure how to pass this info along to Papa Chuy and Uberkul.

Thanks

Mark

60% chance of rain Saturday - should be spectacular, something not to miss, especially for die hard fjr riders. For FODS peeps, wet DV dirt should pop more chubbies than empty bottles of So Comfort!

https://weather.aol.com/forecast/7-day/usa/california/death-valley/id/92328 +1, Gunny; Right On dcarver, riding dirt in the rain builds character! Stiff Upper Lip 'R', Tally Ho! Fairlaner, remember Lord Nelson!

"England expects that every man will do his duty" was a signal sent by Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson from his flagship HMS Victory as the Battle of Trafalgar was about to commence on 21 October 1805. Trafalgar was the decisive naval engagement of the Napoleonic Wars All Hail Britannia! You love wet riding 'R'!

The Death Valley Area weather changes by the minute, not even worth looking at, just bring your rain gear and your heated gear and your hot gear and you will have everything you need, heading out right now up to Hesparia for the evening and then on to Vegas in the AM with Sir R, dont think My GS will keep up with the Audi if he takes that ha ha

Chance of showers .....

That changes things.

Me and Bokerfork and SacramentoMike are canceling our reservations.

https://weather.aol.com/forecast/7-day/usa/california/death-valley/id/92328 Steve-O is 100% correct, you can never accurately forecast weather for Death Valley National Park. The forecast is now: Few Showers on Sunday!

Brother Mick, I certainly expected such churlish behavior from "Dolores" and "Madeline" but certainly not from you! You're of superior Irish stock and you must rise to meet all challenges.

Saturday is our Patron Saint Patrick's Holy Day: Fellow Irishman RenoJohn and Papa Chuy will toast our Revered Padraig together.

Old Michael, think of what Daniel O'Connell "Ireland's Liberator" would've done!
