ST.n West Coast Regional

You know I’m obsessing about something when I completely neglect to mention that I’m going to be out of town riding this weekend. Yeesh.

This weekend is the Sport-Touring.net West Coast Regional Meet in Eureka, CA.

Where the hell is Eureka?

Yep, it’s way up there. Bill (B12_Bill on the boards) and I are riding up tomorrow, taking 101 the whole way. That sounds like a cop-out, but it’s not, I promise. 101 north of the Bay Area is gorgeous. Besides, this will allow me to once again ride through the Chandelier Tree, something that just never, ever, gets old.

I’m in a tree in 2001!

I’m in a tree in 2003!

Now Bill’s in a tree! The fun never ends!

I’ll try to blog a bit from the meet, and do a full write-up once I get back. Here’s my tentative schedule:

Friday: haul ass up 101 to Fortuna (that’s where my hotel is)
Friday night: BBQ at Dr. Gil’s in Eureka
Saturday: Putter around way northern CA. I’m thinking maybe the Lost Coast?
Saturday night: Pah-tay at the brewery in Fortuna. Walking distance to my hotel: that’s me doing some “thinking ahead”, there
Sunday morning: Breakfast at the Samoa Cookhouse
Sunday: haul ass back down 101 to get home

We’re expecting at least 60 people. Sixty!
