Thanks for a great ride. Let's do it again next year but I'll skip the heart attack.

To All that rode...It was a great ride with good freinds. I had a helluva good time! Glad to have ridden this ride with All ya'll!!!
Les...That was an INCREDIBLE route, you did a great job leading. A 3 day ride with only one very minor(luckily) mishap and one "broke-dick" bike that made it back home fortunately.
Let's do it again soon!

Mileage updated. If you include Tuyosi's mileage, we had over 10000 miles for the group.

Total mileage for the trip was 635 (535 for Py since he split off early).

By the way, Sims took Dana's bike...needs a new starter clutch and will be ready tomorrow. Overall, a successful run.

Sunjoo and I had a great time. The riding throught the mountains was great and the scenery was beautiful. Sunjoo commented that she wants to go back and spend a long weekend riding through the mountain areas that we rode on Sunday morning. We both appreciate the hard work of Les, Billy and others that made this happen. As for the miles of Toyosi, are you counting the extra "off road" miles he did

Ditto. Hats off to Les and Billy and the other road captains that made this ride great!

Steve/Les: Thanks for planning great routes for this ride. There was some beautiful scenery and awesome twisties.

Les: Great job leading this large group with different levels of experience. As always, you made this very challenging task look easy and everyone enjoyed it.

Pics: I posted my pics on the YMC Flicker account, http://www.flickr.com/photos/roaddragons/sets/72157624891071676/. Some of the pics are great, but I need to improve my actions shots many were blurry.

Billy;
Lot's of great pictures! Thanks for posting those and taking the time to take all those pictures!!! As for blurry shots, I don't think that was you, I think it was the burboun

Sweet pics! Thanks for taking/posting them. When I go through mine, I'll send any I have of you since the Prez got left out of all the group shots and action pics.

BTW - you may already know this, but for the action shots, just set your Nikon to "S" mode to fix the shutter speed. For these kind of shots, try and set it for at least 1/1,000 second shutter speed, assuming there is enough light. If there isn't enough light, either increase the ISO and/or bump down the shutter speed. Easy to say, difficult to do on the fly!!

Here's a link to my pics. Billy - I have a couple good ones of you by the water fall. Let me know if you want any originals.
