Well many folks are packing up and getting ready to head to the Beautiful Nor-Cal Coastal Redwood region for SITR next week. We will be drawing a winning ticket for that brand new Spyder up there and all of you can buy tickets before the drawing on August 20th. Someone will be the lucky winner, and it only takes 1 to win. But if you would like to buy more that's OK! You will improve your odds of winning, and supporting some really thankful kids.

Chupaca, I know you said "last in, first out", here's your chance to prove that theory! Good luck everybody!:bowdown:

Ok, now make sure that you keep that away from the Casino stash, we would hate for you to mix those up!

Thanks Gene!

Hi All,
I'm a new Spyder owner (2014 ST Limited) and saw this post. Do you have a club or group from No. California?
Wish I had known about your outing to the redwoods earlier as I just made commitments for that weekend.

Seal Floorboards will be there with "Bells on" . I will have three new F3 SEal floorboards with me. This will be the unveiling of the new F3 FB and I couldn't be more excited. It's SUPER EASY TO INSTALL and as all my Seal Floorboards, it's huge. Only one problem. As many of you know, I have some real physical limitations which make getting down on the ground very difficult. I am asking for a few of my friends to volunteer an hour or two to help me. If you are a customer, I may ask you to assist me in your installation. Believe me, all my Seal Floorboards are very easy to put on and will only take a few minutes. In the past, I have been overwhelmed with kind offer of help. Lets all have fun and.......

Ride in comfort,
John

All of our group rydes are off the 101 and I don't see any fires that close to the highway. New fires can start at anytime however. Most of the land near the 101 is cooler and moister than inland. Here is the latest CDF update: http://cdfdata.fire.ca.gov/incidents/incidents_current

We can do anything we want, we don't need any previous threads. I was posting this to remind people of the Spyder Drawing (because that's what I do) had nothing to do wthi who's going, and I have inside information on the event. So sorry I won't see you there Jerry. I love your jokes.

Btw last year my wife and I were looking for some fine dinning. I would highly recommend a Ryde into Eureka in the evening and go to Brick and Fire Bistro. Awesome! Would suggest reservation as this is a small place, but the food was Awesome!!!!!! This place was featured on Diners, Drive Inns and Dives....and believe me it was none of those. Very small and quite popular, so call ahead 707-268-8959, YUM:yes::yes::yes:

Thanks for the information and link to CDF. My wife called Blue Lake Casino this afternoon and they say some haze but sea breeze is keeping it clear. Very moist up here along 101, we'll bring some with us, not a lot just some!
See you there!:yes:

Debbie and I will be there. Can't wait to see old friends and make some new ones. We'll be there Monday afternoon. Taking the back roads to HWY101, probably stop for BBQ in Calistoga then up to 101 to Eureka and over to the casino.
