First, I thank you for the ride compliments on both the run and our riding style that seem to run through the various Yosemite threads. nuff said.
It was great to see old faces and new faces again. The way everyone blended together was amazing, always is, just like old friends. Glad everyone enjoyed themselves and arrived home safely.
Here's some of our pics, to add to some of the good pics already posted. not many action shots this year though, to busy riding I guess!
Here's the Ranch, notice Penerk in the red 'stich, looking at his watch and thinking " it's past time to leave and who the hell was it needed gas ? "

Hmm, I count 12 FJR's in that shot. 12 bikes = 1740hp, or are you talking rear wheel horsepower. tongue.gif 

We could also be talking about the amount of HP that ever gets tapped by the 12 bikes pictured. bleh.gif

Here some pics from the newbie to group riding who didn't get gas early enough. blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif 

Dinner the night before the first ride at Sierra Sky Lodge (or whatever that old TB/Church's brothel place was called ;-)


Proof that people weren't ready and waiting for me ph34r.gif


O'vale and Rogue out back after O'vale had been coerced to drink several Dalwhinnie 15's.


I took this pick of RockinFJR and 04FJR the first night...I didn't know we'd end up riding back to Sacramento together (+ CISCO)

by the way, Morgan the bartender was really pretty cool...hat's off!

I think it was somebody's camera that night. Everybody had the red-eye going. BTW, welcome to the Forum. Looking forward to us all getting together again.

I missed being along too. Fortunately, Alaska proved to be a good consolation prize.
