Worked on bob73 also!!
Since there's about 12 folks checked into Sky Ranch, it might as well be our breakfast meeting point.

What would DoG do?
I hope they have plenty of table space. We'll be there and trying not to be too noisey in case of "twelve-pack revenge" in the area.

This trip will be a heckuva way to break in the "board-hard" Corbin (at least, that's what the consensus is). :haha:
I also have some things ordered, but can live without them for the trip. I did the "once over" today, programmed and mounted the GPS, and will polish it up really purty for the ride down with the Bluestreeks.
I can't wait to get some riding lessons from the Highlanders.
[SIZE=8pt]At least this time we'll get to see TWN, though I'm gonna miss the Rogdebs and Rick-in-Sacs. [/SIZE]

My wife and I wanted to attend this ride, but we decided to make the best of our 4 days off from work and visit Yosemite over Labor Day weekend. We returned this afternoon, it was a wonderful trip. I'm certain everyone going this weekend will have a really nice time.
We stayed at the Sierra Sky Ranch; very nice place with a true rustic feel. The restaurant serves up some very nice burgers and Chicken Primavera. The rooms have double doors that open onto a covered porch and the lack of bugs made relaxing after a long ride quite pleasant. The parking area is crudely paved (meaning, there existed at one time some good pavement, that has since deteriorated into crumbly asphalt, gravel and dirt), but otherwise large enough for a decent number of bikes.
For those of you traveling to the Ranch via Rt 41, be aware the road is being resurfaced just south of and through Coarsegold. The pavement has been stripped and the resulting grooves are not pleasant to ride upon.
Ride Safe!

I think you mean south of Coarsegold not Coalinga. Be careful on this section of road.

What would DoG do?
Assuming it's Coarsegold we're talking about, The work may very well be progressing rapidly. I've noticed most of those projects around here do move forward at a pleasantly surprising pace. It figures, however, that they would tear it up on a holiday weekend. It's all Bush's fault, somehow.

Man that Bush..I wish he'd just let Caltrans get stuff done at times when nobody wants to use the road. I'm definitely not voting for Bush in the upcoming election!

SoCal Yosemite riders:
As stated earlier, I'm heading up the 154 to 101 via Foxen Canyon then 41 over to Oakhurst. Current plans are for an 0930 departure on Fraiday, but I can wait if I need to. Anyone care to join me, post up. If not, no worries, I'll see you at the hotel or after the I-5 on the 41 by happenstance...

Just for fun, I checked on the forecast for temperature range.
Uhm, Oakhurst, Saturday, Low: 49, High: 78
And, Yosemite, Saturday, Low: 44, High: 69
Then, Mammoth Lakes, Sunday, Low: 30, High 58
All-in-all, a grand weekend to be on two wheels.
The Bluestreeks and I will be buggin' outta Elk Grove around 0900, prolly ride down 99 to Mantca, 120 to Jamestown (Sonora), and we just might run through the park to Oakhurst rather than ride down 49. Time will tell!
Skyway, ya' wanna join us?
