yeah lol i was just messing.. i was on my way to starbucks

 

Cool. Nice ride. I look forward to meeting you. I'm george BTW

 

wez r you planning on doing a dry run on these routes?

 

Dry runs would be awesome.... too bad i wont be able to go on any of them

 

We have about a month until the actual meet, so I'm sure we could fit in a dry run for those who can make it. We would probably do a dry run of the most popular choice since I havent taken lotus before, who knows there might be a better way at the end of the route.

John, do you have any input on this?

 

I'd be down for a dry run.

 

Some vids of the latest route on Whithouse, Icehouse road....

This is Icehouse Rd. But not the best part...ran out of memory on the camera before the end... oh well just means we have to go up again, in the day!

 

^ so far so good. Looking forward to seeing what icehouse is like.

 

i think a dry run would be a smart thing. we should do the route which has the most votes at the time as stated. i'd say let's wait until either one or two weeks before the actual run. we'll go at a nice leisurely place just to get the hang of the roads and try to guage what speeds we can enter and exit turns at safely.

those vids are great! shows just how crazy we were for doing runs blind in pitch black.

the icehouse one will have more tire squealage... i lost my butt a few places.

 

I can do any day for the dry run except for the 14, the satuday before the meet. I'll be in Berkeley for a recording session all day.

 

Love the vids!! The anticipation for this meet is like when you are 10 and trying to go to sleep on Xmas eve to see what you got the next day from Santa haha.

 

lol, i know, it eats at you inside!

 

just bumping it up.

 

did you guys set a date for the dry run yet?

 

not yet. i think we should pick a couple of dates and let people choose.
