Welcome to my world guys!  I guess you have to see it through someone else's eyes to remember how beautiful it is out here.  We tend to take it for granted sometimes.
Great ride and pictures.

to a stop slidin' in sidways, hangin' on
for dear life, just so I am able to say;
"Man what a ride!"

I must be missing something?

It's 95 degrees here and all you guys were wearing gloves and heavy jackets.


Looks like I better pack more than my Deals Gap and Suck-Bang-Blow t-shirts for Reno.


Straighten me out JC about this issue.

HD2003,

For every 1,000 feet above sea level the temp goes down 3.3 degrees, Mt. Hoffman is over 10,000 feet.  When I was at the top of Yosemite last summer it was 58 degrees and my coat was in Reno.  Coooooooooooooooold.

Thanks for all of the comments on the pics guys. I have to give most of the credit to my Son. He was hangin off the back of the bike to get a lot of the shots!
It really was a great trip! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]

And Chip some of those pics were takin at about 8am. It is still a bit chilly in the valley. The most I had on the whole weekend in a t-shirt, sweetshirt and vest. That was at night or early in the AM. My leathers never came out of the saddle bag.

Watching the weather report you know that we had a "cool" spell here this week.  It dropped ten degrees from last week.  In the mountains early in the mornings it is a little cool, not cold.  My jacket never came out of the saddle bag all weekend and I wear perforated, unlined, shortie gloves all the time.  Wasn't really cold (except down in the canyons early in the day) but was a little cool early on.

Man, looks like you guys had a great time.  I can't wait 'til I quit working like a dog and get time to hook up with you folks.  I haven't been able to log on a see what the SEEG world was doing.  I'll get back on the saddle soon.  I forgot my banana at the dealer for three weeks!  I'm picking her up tomorrow.

Nice ride! A bunch of guys I know usually go to Yosemite then head towards Street Vibration every year.  Can't wait to go again!

Too bad I missed this thread...would have love to go for the ride! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]
