TCK!

With the coming track bike I'd like to begin scheduling some track time for myself. To start it all off I'd like to head back to Reno for some of Zoom-Zooms cheap Group C Novice weekend classes ($160 a day).

Well I'll be driving my truck and am wondering if anyone wants to co-pilot the trip? Share the gas and the laughs in a double header on July 12th and 13th?

Anyone, Anyone, Anyone?

**UPDATED**

Sidm (Carpooling with TCK! on the way there not way back)

Just FYI my truck is open Sunday night on the return trip if anyone wants to ride up there on their own for just one day and wants a lift home sunday night.

I'm just surprised she didn't kill you after you brought home the last one...

I know a guy that's selling a 748, that if you don't want the black rims and are good on the factory ones might be able to drop the price some $$$

I had to turn away a kid today that was my most interested buyer, found out he just got his M1 and this would be his first bike.. I said sorry but I can't sell it to you.

Does he do lay-away?

I'm game for one of those days. 

I assume you're heading up Friday?  I am considering doing Saturday and then cruise back home Sunday morning on the bike.

I plan on packing the truck up Thursday night, and heading out after work on Friday. I got there at midnight last time and the track was still open for Friday night drag racing so I slept in the truck stop parking lot. When I woke up in the morning there were pickups with bikes all around me with people sleeping.. haha...

I believe there is only 1 piss willy hotel in the town. So if we all decide that we gotta have a roof over our heads then we'd have to commit now to getting a room. If not we could camp out at the track.

I was actually just editing my last post...not sure if i would stay the night Saturday and ride back Sunday morning, or just book it to Sac Saturday night and stay at a friend's, and ride back to SJ in the morning. 

Either way, I'm really digging of heading up Friday after work and riding Reno on Saturday.

Best western and Super 8 in Fernley are around $90.  Other option is to head west Saturday night into Reno and blow off some steam...rooms are only $40-$50 for decent places (i.e. Peppermill Hotel $49, Silver Legacy $55, Atlantis...$21!!!).  I'm game for either option

thanks for the info dtm. 

me and my camping weekends are really getting in the way of enjoying the duc. 

tck - let me know if you're jumping on one or the other (or both).

I've been looking at that weekend as well.  I might just do sunday though, haven't decided.  I've got a truck too if TCK's fills up or anyone only wants one day. 

TCK!

I would but I think at the end of the day saturday I'm going to be super beat. Probably wouldn't be much "steam" to blow off. Once I get to work I'm going to buy my spots for the two days. I'm just not sure if I want to have to pack up all my stuff saturday just to put it all out again sunday... but we'll see...
