I think i'm going to put my camera on Jims helmet, with a really LONG cord, and sit at the camper and watch with a cold beer in my hand! With a group this big, I don't want to miss anything! :lol: :supz:

Your more than welcome to V! All you have to do is sign a waiver. :lol: Honestly, you will probably not like the weight and turning difference compared to a 200, but I think your gonna love the power...

Weather Update - thought I'd check in on the weather every couple of days. Of course you all know how reliable weather forecasting can be but at least it'll give us a "feel" for what's going to be happening.

At this point, there's about a 60% chance of some rain when we arrive Friday. Saturday, however, looks much better. The weather pattern knocked the temps down into the 70s which would be glorious (IMO).

We dont want too much K, trust me. Myself and Tom got caught in one hell of a storm late one evening up on the mountain. It turned to snott! We had to walk our bike around some turns. Thank goodness I had a headlight that night! Not to mention, I was running on reserve..... :shock:

Coming down that mountain in the rain
we had to walk the bikes on some of the areas and even then
it was hard to keep them from sliding down hill.

Mix dirt, clay, rock, add a little water and a step incline
and you can hardly stand up.

Another weather link, look like we'll have a little rain here and there, but all in all it's shaping up to be a mild and partly sunny trip!!
