Aufderheide 6/3 (sunday)

[lotsamtbottls]

My roommate from Portland (also a 749 dark rider ;) ) is coming down here to ride this coming weekend and really wants to take a stab at Aufderheide... I'm thinking Sunday around 11am or noon... anyone interested? time is very flexible, but thought we'd go early enough to still enjoy our evenings...

also wanting to ride wolf creek that saturday... 6/2, dont know what time yet... post up!

[2k2 banshee]

sounds good i would like to go on that ride. how long is that ride tess ?

[Triplespeed]

maybe

[Xusia]

ARGHHHHH! I leave that morning on business. :mecry:

Lee, you should probably plan on 4 hours.

[lotsamtbottls]

brian- maybe you can join saturday for wolf creek and surrounding area? i'm trying to show nathan around down here, since he's never ridden in this area at all...

lee- its a little over 100miles altogether, but we stop in a couple places to rest and chit chat... i think brian hit it on the nose with 4 hours, counting stops.

[Xusia]

I'm away on business right now, and Saturday is my only day back, so the wife and I are planning on spending some quality time together. No, not what you are thinking - we are spending it on the motorcycle!! We are riding to Florence for lunch and back (solo, so we can get some togetherness!).

I might make the wolf creek Tess. If you can give us a closer proximity to the time you'll be out there. I might make aufder, but it's a little early to say. I did wolf creek today. Looking very good:bounce:

[Fly n Hawaiian]

I might make it, and if I do I'll be with a Newbie, You are more than welcome to hang out in the back with us! There are a couple corners (decreasing radius/off camber) that can sneak up on you, but it's a beautiful ride, and as long as you take it easy and don't push yourself... you'll be fine. :D

edwin
it is a little bit of a challenging road, more near the cougar side. we have had plenty of new people ride it in our group rides. we always make sure someone is with you, and we all meet up at certain points to make sure everyone is ok. You'll be fine as long as you ride at a comfortable pace and just enjoy yourself, as opposed to trying to push it. come along, you'll have a blast!

[YOMAMAR6]

ill keep my eye open:eek: for times and stuff but sill would have to talk to the wife. shes boss.:bow: she bought bike for me so she gets priority.:yes: or i might just sneek out:shhh:

Sounds like fun! You know I should most definitly, probably, possibly, consider, making it out for both rides.http://eugenesportbike.com/forum/images/smilies/newsmilies/rad.gif But will probably be most down for the Wolf Creek ride.http://eugenesportbike.com/forum/images/smilies/newsmilies/bounce.gif Aufty is bumpy... http://eugenesportbike.com/forum/images/smilies/newsmilies/crash.gif But I will probably break down and come on the Aufty run too.

I just need to keep reminding myself, the sooner I dump my bike, the sooner I can justify getting a new one! http://eugenesportbike.com/forum/images/smilies/newsmilies/bounce.gifhttp://eugenesportbike.com/forum/images/smilies/newsmilies/drool.gif

[1F45tGSXR]

I will also talk to my wife about coming along. Anyone going double-up?

[snot rocket]

Aufderheide sounds very tempting, but I am soo sore from th%$@%&^ screw it I'm going!:thumbup: :ride: :victory-s

As for wolf creek, I am totally in if I dont have to work. If I do work I should be off by noon.

[2k2 banshee]

[Rex Raider]

[lotsamtbottls]

sunday- meet at the texaco in pleasant hill just as you come into town on 58 (first gas station on the right) at say... 11:30am?

saturday... hell i have no idea. lets say, shell on greenhill around 1 or 1:30pm?

[Fly n Hawaiian]

[2k2 banshee]

If i go sunday, I will be in the back also. new road and all

[Xusia]

I've seen some of the best riders I know crash on that road, so if you are a new rider or new to that road, please take extra care and slow down.

[YOMAMAR6]

i might make it but where is pleasant hill ????? HWY. 58??????

sorry not from that area.

edwin

[lotsamtbottls]

sorry not from that area.

edwinif you get on I-5, right around exit 188 i think... there is an exit for hwy 58, you cant miss it. head east on it... you'll come to the gas station fairly quickly once you cross the big metal bridge thats about 1/2 mile down

[2k2 banshee]

how about wolf creek saturday????? need a time. I might have some friends that can go also if it isnt to early.

[lotsamtbottls]

how about wolf creek saturday????? need a time. I might have some friends that can go also if it isnt to early.i posted a time on page 2... but again, shell station on Greenhill rd & West 11th at 1pm... want to be on the road by 1:30 or so. figured i'd wait around for a little while, because i know we have at least 2 people coming from the portland/vancouver area, and i dont want to leave them behind when they are coming from so far away!

[2k2 banshee]

oops didn't see that

[superstudinor]

I can make the sunday aufdy ride, but I have to be back in sutherlin at 5:00pm. Let me know if thats possible.

[lotsamtbottls]

joey- that should be possible if we try hard enough :thumbup: its about 3-4 hours to do aufdy, counting all the stops. we'll end up in springfield afterwards, so you can just hop on I-5 to make it back to sutherlin... hope to see you there!!

[blackjack]

Tess, I'm in for Sunday:thumbup: first time riding there, sounds like fun, 11am is good, I'll call a friend I met Thursday at bike nite and see if he's in, see you tomorrow, Jack:rad:

[WindBurnt]

depending on my back, i should be there. i knotted up or cramped by back strap muscle at work the other night. i even had tatood drive my bike home from work for me. feeling ok now aslong as i keep moving and not let it settle in.

[Xusia]

I so wish I wasn't going to be on plane! We HAVE to do this again when I'm in town!!!

[Rex Raider]

i'm starting the run at wolf cr. at 10:00 if anyone wants to join me let me know and well meet at the start of wolf creek.

[ZRX_PAUL]

I will be there for the ride Sunday. I assume that we are going from the Westfir side , and coming out at Cougar. Is this correct?

[Rex Raider]

i think so :thumbup:

[ZRX_PAUL]

Are you running Wolf Creek Sunday morning @ 10:00 as well?

[Rex Raider]

running short on time going out lorain hwy. way at 1030 or so

[ZRX_PAUL]

I just washed my bike , and loaded up the camera etc. I am headed ot Lorane
Highway as soon as I get gas. Will probably go out to Hamm Road and cut across to Creswell, go over I-5 and take Cloverdale rd to Hwy. 58, and then to the Texaco where we are all meeting. I will either see you out there somewhere, or at the Texaco later.

[2k2 banshee]

well washed my scooter, my wrist feels good, ron is on his way, out of here.

[2k2 banshee]

That was awsome today, that road is the sh:censored:t. NOAH,NOAH,NOAH you missed out man big time.

[WindBurnt]

twas, a great ride. glad to meet all of u.

[DJ]

I had a great time also, even if I did lay my bike down. A big Thank you to all to stopped and helped to see if I was ok/pull my bike back on the road. Also a
big thanks to Blackjack who rode with me pretty much the whole way home. I
think I got alittle whip lash, took a nap and feel better.

[YOMAMAR6]

i had a blast even tho i was slow. cant wait to do it again. sorry me an joey broke off early. hope im invited again.

edwin

[skipbo]

A great ride today. Definitely worth coming down from Portland. DJ, I'm sorry that you had a ride off but at least you're ok. It was nice meeting everyone that I had a chance to.

Sorry if I held anyone up in the turns during the ride. This was a new road for me with off camber turns I wasn't familiar with so I had to be extra careful, especially in the blind corners.

You have a great group of Eugene area riders. Very safe and controlled from what I saw. Thanks for including me in your ride. You all put on a great show!! I was privaledged to get to watch you all rip thru the corners. MORE!!!! :yes:

[lotsamtbottls]

thank you to everyone who showed up! i had a great day and it was awesome to see so many new faces!! i think devin and i counted 26 altogether, once karen and her 3 friends joined up with us. love seeing those wonderful pics!! glad our downed rider (and his bike) were ok and able to finish the ride. this was a great way to end my eugene-area season... i'll try to make it down once in a while this summer, but once i move i dont know how often that will happen. i'm going to miss all you guys! the folks in p-town will never replace ya'll as my "group"! if anyone ever wants to come up north and ride, let me know and we'll get together!! :ride: :smilewink

[blackjack]

I really haven't had that much fun in a long time, you all are great to ride with, hope to do it again soon, hopefully see you all at bike nite, Jack
