Ok, here's my Saturday route; any players? :rofl:
I’m going on a Cen Cal “President’s Weekend Ride to Death Valley, CA. in 2009”
I just made a reservation* for 2 riders (one room for 2 nights) on February 13, and 14, 2009, at the Motel 6, Beatty, Nevada here:

...and here is the preliminary Ride post from this FJR 1300 Forum last year in '08;

...also, this is the following Ride Report from Cen Cal's 2008 ride;

Anyone on this Forum is Welcome to join “me” on this ride on any brand of bike (but please bring an “adequate number of cc’s”) . The itinerary will be similar to last year, however “you” will arrive in Beatty on your own, and ride your own ride even “if” you choose to ride with any group who is "present" on this weekend. I "choose" this weekend to DV, because it is a 3 day holiday weekend from work for me. <_<
*There are other places in Beatty, NV to lodge like the Phoenix Motel, Motel 6, etc.
Chime in your interest or send me a PM. More info later!

Are they really hot springs? Beautiful nekkid wimmen dere?You gonna hit the hot springs at Saline Valley?Ok, here's my Saturday route; any players? :rofl:
LOL, no competition. My post is a joke. It would take a week to ride all that. I found those tracks from AdvRider.com and thought they were pretty cool. I'd like to go back to DV with a FODS run sometime. Camp out, do some back trails, back to base camp at night.Ok, here's my Saturday route; any players? :rofl:

Hi Steve!I have the saturday ride mapped out in Mapsource. If anyone wants it or know how to post it. I will provide it. I did it based of his route instrucitons. Its the exact opposite of the ride we did two years ago I think.
Yeah, Dcarver's post IS a joke! Riding Titus Canyon alone on a two track, could take a full day.LOL, no competition. My post is a joke. It would take a week to ride all that. I found those tracks from AdvRider.com and thought they were pretty cool. I'd like to go back to DV with a FODS run sometime. Camp out, do some back trails, back to base camp at night.
I'd like it, PM with email addie sent. Thank You!I have the saturday ride mapped out in Mapsource. If anyone wants it or know how to post it. I will provide it. I did it based of his route instrucitons. Its the exact opposite of the ride we did two years ago I think.
Wow, what beautiful pics!!! what a difference a few days can make (i was there the weeend before), you FIL had more exciting weather than our boring 80degree, sunshine and no wind.My father-in-law and his friends (who live in Ridgecrest) decided to head out to DV this past weekend took some pictures of the havoc the weather was playing on the roads. With possible showers all week looks like there will be some sandy roads out there.
Here is a link to pictures and a bit of a description

But good Idea on the FODS later in the year as a dual sport ride, Don. All I gotta do is find myself a bike to do it on?
Don Don, thanks for sharing your slides and the report on your January ride above. I'm thinking about avoiding ALL off road on this trip! But "if" you can believe it? The Nor Cal BMW Airheads are still going to hold their yearly camp out at Furnace Creek this weekend, rain or shine. One of the guys going with us has opted to haul a trailer load of firewood to Furnace Creek day after tomorrow. Die Hards!With this wet and stormy weather I can guarantee that the elevated passes North and South of Saline Valley are going to make that track an absolute nightmare! With the snow forecasted for Death Valley this weekend, ride as a group; not solo!!
That tears it, 3 bailouts in the last 3 hours! I'm out! Gotta reschedule President's day now. Probably paint the kitchen :angry:This is "CANDY ASS" bailing out on the SnowBall Run to Death Valley :dribble: Will go when it's FUN & not a -----!
Best Wishes & BE SAFE :cold:
Same on my end, George... but working on a Plan B as we speak to San Luis Obispo for a couple of days.That tears it, 3 bailouts in the last 3 hours! I'm out! Gotta reschedule President's day now. Probably paint the kitchen :angry:
