The Cannell Plunge. It's Time!

This means that you are now a much better rider!

 

Wait - "Yeah buddy" you will back out if I join in? or "Yeah Buddy" - please join us?

 

If you back out I might back in. Save me a spot.

 

Is it our destiny to never ride together again? We are so Yin/Yang! You hate everything I like and vice versa! The universe needs us to be together!

 

I hope so! Thanks @hill^billy ! Did you move out of state??

 

I’ve paid and gotten my pass...it’s on Mr

 

This close.....cancellation policy....there is none. Pay your money and ride, or pay your money and don't ride. Either way...you pay your money.

I'm already paid....so no backing out.

 

No but sadly I want to!

 

Someday then
Are you in for this ride?

 

HB, swing a visit to Truckeestan CA and you could gain a little appreciation of the golden state. I know a guide who works cheap. Drop thru Nevada for the cheap gas. Bring your trailer and stay awhile, it's the season.

 

Anyone in the OC or nearby who has room and wants company for the drive?

Looking to carpool with someone. @herzalot, you going and want someone to go with you?

 

I did I suck OK! Sorry. I’ll fix it when I get home.

 

I'm a definite maybe. But if I go, I am not driving home the same night. Sounds like a recipe for disaster. And I am NOT re-enacting John Candy and Steve Martin in Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

 

“Those aren’t pillows”

 

@herzalot, I'm good with crashing in Kernville or thereabouts Saturday night. Camping fine or otherwise. I'll have to rewatch the movie to get the reference. Actually, I'n not even sure I saw it.

 

That’s some must see TV right there

 

Thanks Mike, I am seriously considering this, Tom de Bomb had mentioned you offered the same to him and we just talked about it.

 

I'm glad you didn't think I was joking! Summer crowds are mostly gone, trails just melted out, good camping/lodging options of all types abound.

My availability will fluctuate the next couple months, but if I can't ride a certain day I can set you guys up with info and prolly a shuttle here or there. It'd be great to see you make it up. A handful of others will be coming up, too. Life is short – do it!

PS: Along with Truckee/Tahoe, I'd be up for committing a day to Downieville. It's :90 from here.

 

lets see 9*5=45 which equals a free ticket to the Canadian and he leaves a 5 spot tip.

 

I think I might be able to get the nice car from my spouse, which means I can take three more if anyone is interested in carpooling. Probably going up the 15 to 395, so IE peeps. Planning on camping Friday and Saturday nights, although hopefully having some access to someone's shower would be great!

 

I am very interested and will have a definite answer tonight. I am scheduled to do the Mammoth Gran Fondo the same day, but this sounds worlds more fun. I am just waiting on my wife to decide if she would rather camp in Mammoth or in Kernville. If I do the Plunge I will definitely camp and probably arrive Fri., for some riding maybe Just Outstanding and camp until Sun. afternoon. Beers and Whiskey always sound great with chilling/camping in the mountains.

 

Great, hope it works out... much more fun than a road ride!!!! Camping solo is fine, but getting a group together is always awesome!

 

My preference....

 

Power to your wallet...

I'll sleep unshowered in the dirt before I'll shell out for that opulence. The old lady will be right there with me.

 

I have a 30 foot trailer. If we can work out the camping thing and we find a site with hookups, all are welcome to use my shower. Both inside or outside the trailer whatever is preferred. There are a couple nice sites right along the river, only problem is a couple require 5 night minimum stay. I will research more.

 

Just went on the site and the shuttle for the Cannell Plunge states a minimum of 6 shuttles and a max of 18. Not sure if that is for one shuttle vehicle or their max capacity for the day.

 

Max capacity (2 Vans)

 

I am officially registered for this. Now who wants to carpool from OC? I can drive, would rather not. Can take 4 bikes if necessary. OC peeps holla @ me!!!!

 

I will happily use your shower! Something between the two options above works good for me!
