CoarsegoldKid Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) I noticed that the forecast for NmS weekend is indeed going to be sunny. On another note I put on some new Michelin PR4s. Went out for a 200 miler of twisty roads, sorry that's all we got around here, and I really can't tell the difference from PR3s. So with that in mind all will be good. cheers Edited April 16, 2017 by CoarsegoldKid Link to comment

CoarsegoldKid Posted April 17, 2017 Author Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) I was going to try posting the new room availability at the Comfort Inn on the bmwst facebook page but couldn't figure out how. Doing something wrong or blocked. Edited April 17, 2017 by CoarsegoldKid Link to comment

stubble! Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 In at comfort inn. This will be my first NMSITM so I'm sure I'll bring the rain, but it will be fun regardless. Link to comment
Twisties Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 In at comfort inn. This will be my first NMSITM so I'm sure I'll bring the rain, but it will be fun regardless. It will be great to see you! Link to comment
markgoodrich Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Probably not the PC thing to do on this thread, but I have stuff that was my wife's that riders could use. I'll bring it if someone speaks up. Ogio Helmet bag: great for flying, has room for the helmet and your miscellaneous carry on stuff. $40 at Revzilla, $20 at NmS, used once. Rev'It Medium unisex rain oversuit, goes on in seconds, over boots and your suit, keeps you completely dry. $100 new, $50 at NmS. Electric passenger gloves, size large, Warm n Safe brand. I dunno what they cost new, but half price is the deal. They work a heck of a lot better than the rider gloves. Bestem brand bag liners for RT (I used them in my '06, so any with bags like that will work. Heavy duty nylon. Zipper pulls on one of them wore out, so I put zip ties on them. $$30. I'll be happy to talk price. Mods, be nice... Link to comment
Zweiradfreak Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 If any of you riders are interested in a ride on Saturday the 29th, 9:30 am at the parking lot in front of Jack in the Box Oakhurst, then be there. I will be going on a 250 mile ride north mostly off of Hwy 49 all back roads. Dinner at El Jardin Mexican Restaurant in the old mining town of Columbia. Then fuel up in Jamestown with more back roads back to Priest Station for coffee, desert etc. in Big Oak Flat continuing to Coulterville, then the "Dragon" on Hwy 49 back to Oakhurst. Should be a pretty ride, foothills are green, lakes are full and roads are great. I will be at Jack in the Box around 9:00 am. Rain will cancel!! Franz Link to comment
FlyingFinn Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Oh, another "if someone needs it I'll bring it" offer... I have 5 quarts of 15W-50 Mobil-1 synthetic motor oil left over from my old GS. The Waterhead bikes use different viscosity and I have no need for this Oilhead / Hexhead oil. If anyone can use it, I'll bring it. It's free. Link to comment

StuGotz Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 If everyone is staying at the Comfort Inn, wouldn't it be easier to assemble there? And what time would dinner be in Columbia? Not planning on riding back in the dark, are you? MB> Link to comment

Sure sounded like it to me, from the itinerary. Link to comment
