TCK!

Just FYI, Mines road has been chip sealed.

So unless you're on a SuMo keep it slow.

Got my Oxtar SuMo boots yesterday ($200 off from Cycle Gear!) and my parts are on order almost Husaberg time! :D

They white?
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Unfortunately no :( Since they were so cheap I had to take what I could get which was gray and black. If I ever decide to go big bucks on the Sidi or Gaerne SuMo Boots I'll be going white for sure :D

What size boot do you wear? I've got a pair of Gaerne SG-10's in black/white, size 44.5/10 that are just collecting dust. I've done a few across town jaunts to break them in, and one 300 mile enduro in them. They're still damn near new...just a little dusty.

Since I no longer have the Big Red Pig (99 XR 650R), I don't need 'em. If you want 'em, make me an offer...or maybe a box of rockers? ;D
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Dude I tried to get the rockers for you, I was going to "DMF Pay It Forward" but the guy that bought the bike wanted them really bad. I tried to talk him out of it saying how they were already fixed but he wanted it all. I should have just left them at home and he probably wouldn't have remembered.

Too bad I already got these boots otherwise I would be all over those. Oh well... I'm sure a few others will convert to SuMo soon enough on the board here and they'll be able to get a good deal.

Oh well... no worries.

reading this made me remember...

Gazosos creek has just been chip sealed too.  It is that cut-through from Cloverdale to the coast.  The whole thing is gravel

Hmmm, never heard of that one. WAS it a good road before the crappy work? I'll have to google it...

TCK!

Don't take any of Vindingo's road suggestions... he'll have you going down roads like Morgan Territory. Which is just lovely if you're never been there...

Its nothing to write home about.  It is a backroads alternative to go south from Pescadero. Gazos Creek Rd

TCK was complaining about it being a 1 lane road and some other nonsense about him wanting us to ride the speed limit.   [roll]

Ride.

That is why I have never heard ridden it, Vindingo said Cloverdale, nothing else! Being from the North Bay, when I hear Cloverdale, I think the town of Cloverdale!

Oh well, still may ride it someday when I'm down that way. And after the chip seal has dissipated...

Norris Canyon just chip sealed.

101 in San Mateo/Burlingame is always bad, but currently the northbound direction has significant level/surface changes (like ~3 inches difference) between the left 2 lanes. >:(

Please be extra extra cautious on 101 both directions in Burlingame / San Mateo. Re-paving, lots of construction, lanes moving around ... all combined with the usual oblivious cagers. It's deadly out there!
