Apologies if this has been done but did a search and didn't see anything so....

Who else here is from California? North, South or in between?

I'm in Prettier Whittier pretty much straddling the L.A. and O.C. border.

And you?

P.S. Have yet to see another F6B in person outside of a dealership. I know you are out there!

I'd be down for that, I do most of my riding in NorCal. We could meet in Central Cal and do a Sierras ride.

I'm looking for ideas of where to hold the PNW-F6B-15 rally for next July in northern California. We had a great time in Enterprise, OR this past July with a good turn-out. I'm open to suggestions as I would like to get more of my "southern west coaster F6B'ers there. As in this past year, it will be the 3rd weekend in July 2015 .



Thanks,

KJ

Auburn and Placerville, CA, 25 and 35 miles east of Sacramento, respectively, are both cities of moderate size and both are gateways to outstanding riding in the Sierra foothills (the famous Gold Country) and mountains. Think nice curves and plenty of twisties. It would be easy to incorporate Lake Tahoe into a days ride although I wouldn't recommend headquartering there for reasons of congestion and cost. Rides from either city have spectacular scenery and from a start at about 2,000 ft. elevation, could include mountain passes to well over 8,500ft., perhaps even over 9,000ft. Plenty of lodging and good food at both locations.

Interstate 5 provides fast transit from the north or south for those in a hurry to get to the area while there are fun two lane alternatives for those with more time to play. Riding up Hwy 49 from it's southern end is a destination ride in itself.

The central coast offers good possibilities too but would be a much longer haul for those from up north. The coast (as well as Tahoe) would also be more difficult if lodging and meal costs are a consideration as I expect they would be.

In planning rides for California, I'd suggest subscribing to Pashnit at www.pashnit.com. You can check out the site at no cost. If you check it out, be sure to try the free samples of some of the road sites. Check out Mosquito Ridge Road which begins about 25 miles out of Auburn in Foresthill. It has 600 turns in 36 miles. This site gives detailed info. and pictures on all the good bike roads in California. The lengthy descriptions would also cause caution about taking a group on some of the roads. The site's done by a rider and is worth the $25 just for armchair riding if nothing else. Those of us in the area would be happy to suggest good rides and I know a number of us would be happy to help in any way we could.

From my home in Sacramento, I am 25 minutes from rides that other folks take vacation time to enjoy. Check it out and any questions, just let me know. Bruce

I've only seen one other F6B on the roads up here--I mostly ride out to the Coast and up into the Napa and Sonoma wine country. The other F6B was red but since I was on my Beemer I could not catch him (or her). How about a rendezvous in wine country?

[QUOTE=jimbov1;110915]Does anyone know of any F6B clubs in Ca prefer northern or bay area.[/QUOTE

Don't think there are any organized F6B clubs at all.They would fall under the Goldwing type so the big Goldwing orginazation would be the one to look in to.In July on the 8th thru 10th there is the Reno Rendevous at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno NV.Last year there were 1000"s of Wings,F6B's and Goldwing trikes there with vendors.Might look into that.Also a couple of times a year the F6B boys in the Sacramento area have get togethers.Have not been able to make one yet but hope to this year if they get together again.I grew up in Corte Madera Ca and worked in San Francisco for 35 years for Pacific Gas and Electric.So I am a old Northern Cali kid.When I was able to retire I moved to Northern Nevada just east of Carson City.
