A tentative date has been set. Saturday August 2nd. I'm working on some details.

Any ideas for a ride route?

Just Buddys?

I still don't get how guests can post. They shouldn't be able to. Dang.

That was my post. I'm not sure why it said that I was a guest.

Anyone can ride with us.

Things are coming together for this ride.

[Guest]

can Temeculinos attend? On their Rattlers? We're almost from No. County and almost have a Buddy!

August 2nd sounds good,a ride up the coast is always good that time of the year.
Any thoughts on time and a good place to meet that day?
I live in the east county so to go west to meet will take some extra time.

What type of ride does everyone want to do?

Town (i.e. downtown, Balboa Park, Seaport Village, Harbor Drive, we could even buzz the Vespa shop)?

Scenic beach (Fiesta Island, MB, OB, Sunset Cliffs, Point Loma)?

Scenic Ocean (La Jolla, Del Mar...Encinitas)?

White knuckle (Coronado Bridge, Coronado, Chula Vista)?

Old Highway 80 ride. Although it is very hot inland this time of year.

pcbikedude,all your suggestion's near the beach sound good except for Old Hwy 80,to hot.

Yeah old 80 is definitly hot this time of year. 110 F in El Cajon today. 108 yesterday. It's a little hot on that route.

I think we are going to have a town ride through Balboa Park, Seaport Village/Marina Park, along Harbor Dr, to Harbor Island back through Mission Hills/Hillcrest and ending at the starting point. I'll get a map published soon.

Flyers are available at Motorsports.

Route has been posted in the OP.

I was thinking stopping for lunch at Point Loma Seafood. How does everyone feel about that? Or, we can ride over to Liberty Station which has various quality no-so-fast-food restaurants.

[PaulS]

Both sound good PLS could be crowded on a Saturday but all I have is time and life's to short to worry.
Let's go "Scooteren"..........

[pcbikedude]

Space is filling up with non-Buddy riders.

[pcbikedude]

Enlarging the ride limit. We have more volunteers step up to be sweepers.

[Guest]
