    Need some help with the directions. When I mapquest 757 Haggen dr. there is no Haggens Grocery coming up. The program keeps telling me the closest Haggen's is 2601 east division st. Mt. Vernon.

    This is what I came up with, do you live in Seattle? I could just as easy take the Southworth or Bremerton Ferrys to hook up for the ride up...

    I just had a new rear tire put on last night. I'm in if the weather holds. Not sure that I can scuff it up enough if we get some rain on Sunday.

    Not to worry. I'm not planning on kicking it in the near future. And you are not that far away we cannot meet sometime.

    PS

    Stay away from the lightning.

    Maybe it's just the Californian in me but it's still hard for me to comprehend having to worry about weather on July 27th :rant:

    What a bunch of pansies. You afraid of a little rain. What do you think will happen, your belly might shrink? Or other parts? Or the dye run out of your old man graying hair. Just think, the rain will wash the bugs off your shield. Hell open the shield and smile. You can save yourself a dentist trip.

    Or relax. You've just been exposed to "Randy's Rant"

    Gotta go now, The nurse is calling for my meds.

    Have a great trip all of you and post pix for sure so I can shed a tear for not being able to go you bastards.:frown:

    In my best Ricky Bobby prayer...

    Please dear Lord Baby Jesus,

    Bring me and my fellow Viffer Riders good weather tomorrow. We so deserve to be blessed on what is such an auspicious event.:drama:

    I live in the Sierra Nevadas. Most of Susanville is at 4200' but parts of it are around 5000'.
    Crappy weather down low means cold crappy weather up high. The mountain tops are at about 6500'.
    Just a little geography lesson.
    Enjoy your ride, guys.
