I'm soooooo jealous .....

 
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: ....... South is good............ :}
Absolutely! Over to Forest Hill Rd, down the canyon and up through Cool, over to Georgetown, 193 to Placerville or down Marshall Grade to Hwy 49/Coloma and on to Placerville. Or Lotus Rd to Rescue. Or North on 49 to Pilot Hll and L on Salmon Falls Rd.

The possibilities are endless, all of the roads and riders interesting. :yahoo:

Yes, but when I checked AccuWeather.com and used their hour-by-hour forecast it wasn't "constant".

Everyone will have to make up their own minds. I'll be bringing the rain liners for my gear.

Er....maybe for hot chocolate. ;)

I'm up in the air right now. Keeping an eye on the weather. I love to ride and love to see my friends, but I take no pleasure (I'm reading Jane Austen :rolleyes: ) in riding in the rain. (And I don't know when I've ever seen such griping about the weather as the ride yesterday, which I only mention as a reminder that rain's no fun. :D )

I think it would be wise to stay south of I 80, we always get more rain up here.

Useless fact: Nevada County is second in annual rainfall in California.

Just a reminder to watch for road sand up here and toward Georgetown, lots of frosty roads lately so the road crews have been piling on the sand. I will be watching this thread for updates. Plus side for me is new PR's going on today going, down side is my Feejeer is showroom clean (we're talkin GAY clean) so do I want to mess it up?

Saturday looks much better, come on up out of the fog .Just a thought.
