I can't make it on the 20th - I have 20 family members coming to my house that day.
I also should have the roof on the new shop this week (high priority).
I have gear to ride when it is cold but no rain gear so we can try for the 27th. Then if anyone wants to marathon over it would be fine with me.
Who knew life could be so complicated?
I live near Portland, Oregon and my rider is a '76 KZ900 I bought new. I'm also in the process of restoring another one and a '73 Z1.

If it takes till the 27th, I won't be able to do anything, as I would have to be back to work the very next day. I would have to have it happen the Saturday before, the 19th. If you meet Schuss then, and had the Flag back in Portland, I'd come get it from you like I said. Otherwise, well it may stay in Seattle. At least its in good hands, Schuss is a good guy, wish we could have spent some time out riding when we meet up last Labor Day Weekend. When I ride up there again to visit my relo's, I'll be giving Schuss a call for a ride. ;)

Family is coming either the 19th or 20th - plans are still in flux and I will find out today. Sometimes it is good to be busy - Sometimes!

Absolutely Fantastic Fall weather here in the PNW at the moment and forecast for the next 7 days. Highs in the mid 60's after a cool morning, here in the high desert that means below freezing at night, but 60 something by 2pm.

Anybody have any idea about Southern California KZ group rides?
Where do they meet?
It is January, we currently have 80 degree weather.
Thanks

Hey Dan, You might try your local bike shops for some info. The "Bike Related" and "Ride Report" forums here can be a resource or at least a place to post up your announcement/interest in group rides. Also, you might try the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club(VJMC) for a chapter in your area to ride with other similiar era bikes. >>> vjmc.org/calendar.shtml

Good Luck finding a group in your area.

Bump!
Are people getting their bikes ready? Where and when is the next hand off? Please post a response if your going to take part in the relay this Spring. As it is basically here. Nice weather on and off at the moment and plenty good enough for moving the flag.

Awesome I was just wondering about the flag and when we would see some more movement again. I know you guys up north have had a tough winter. Who is on the plan to help us get this thing moved? I know we have a few guys in Cali now. Toolmaker, have you been in contact with anyone to hand it off to? Do we have anyone in Nevada?
