As the Airhead Rally has been cancelled, here will be a solution for those who need their Death Valley fix. We have the group campsite reserved for the weekend of Feb 19-21. It does not look like the motel rooms are available/open, but I have reserved two Queen cabins ($209/night + tax) and 3 2-cot tent cabins ($55/night), for those who might not wish to pitch their own tent. There are also RV sites available. For other than the group camping, please call Panamint Springs to reserve and mention SCBMWRC.
I am clarifying if the restaurant is open and will post as soon as I find out.
More specific details will follow but the general plan is: For anyone who wishes to ride up in a group, we can leave Flo’s at Chino Airport about 9 a.m. on Friday. Stop for lunch in Ridgecrest. Dinner open for Friday night. Saturday is open for breakfast, lunch, and riding Death Valley or wherever. Small groups might work best for Saturday riding. If the restaurant is open, we could have pizza and salad for dinner at the campsite. Cost is undetermined at this time, but at least $5/night for the camping. Maybe $5-10 for Saturday dinner if desired.
The Ride List now encompasses this Death Valley event, so update as appropriate, please.
There also is the option of staying an extra night!

Hey, y’all—–here’s some amateur route planning. Don’t really need it, but fun to do anyway.
I’ve got two possible day rides. I lean toward the 312 mile one. On the other hand, if all is going well, could even stay another night and do the 2nd one also.
The ride home is open.And, Dave E.—-don’t forget to bring the new Club banner!

Good morning John. I did something to my knee yesterday and now it’s stuck in one position, won’t stretch or bend. I’ll give it another day to see if it’s well enough to do the ride but I don’t think I’ll be able to balance the motorcycle on it so unfortunately I won’t be able to attend this weekend. I was looking forward to riding with the group but I guess my knee had other plans. If there’s any cost involved for the reservation of the campsite please let me know who and how to pay. Thank you and be safe everyone.

If you are checking the weather on your iPhone make sure to enter Panamint Springs and not Death Valley. Panamint is about 10 degrees cooler at night. Expected 60’s during the day and a low of 38 at night. Bring something warm to wear!
And if you plan on meeting up for the start from Flo’s at 9am at the Chino airport and want to have breakfast there they are open for outside dining starting at 6am. I just called them to verify.

Very good weekend in Death Valley, thank you to John C for orgainizing it, to those that could make it, to the off-road crew for hitting the trails, and in particular the honorable Rob Trip for gracing us with his presence from Northern California…. and riding off road on his K1600…. a true Giant among GS riders!!!
