    • What: West Coast Gathering. Ride, have fun, plan trails, burn in trails, etc.
    • When: Thursday May 16th through Sunday May 19th - key date for those that only want to come for 1 day would be Saturday May 18th.
    • Who: please post up and let us know. :)
    • Why: have fun! :thumbsup:
    • Where: About 1/2 hour from Napa CA, or about 1/2 hour from Winters CA, or about a 1/2 hour from Vacaville CA. Exact directions will be sent to those who can make it.
    • WARNING: there are ample amounts of poison oak at this location... if that makes a difference to you. Though it can be easily avoided with some care.
    This could be that last ride here until next spring, not sure. It will soon dry out here and then it would not be as much fun.


    About the CH Corporate Facility:
    • This area is absolutely *epic* for dual sporting & road bikes
    • Ample camping available all over this place - toy haulers, motor homes, tents, it's all good.
    • It is not really that large... 100 acres? But it does have adequate elevation changes to make it interesting... and if there was 1 word to describe this place it would be 'loam'.
    • There are not really any trails per se yet... you get to pick where to put them.
    • Because of the above mentioned poison oak, it may be more practical to wear old clothes which can be washed instead of riding clothes, at least that is what I do occasionally.
    • For those who want to just take a flight here, use Sacramento Airport. Accommodations can be made - Start a Conversation (PM) with me and let me know if you are interested.
    • Feel free to bring a fishing pole :thumbsup:

    Sigh, we are running a Poker Run and Hare & Hound that weekend at Millican (just north of where weve been doing the CH NW Gathering).

    One of these days .....

    Sounds great. :)
    There is no official trail system as of yet... but wish there were. I am sure someone will be showing people around the place, depends who shows up.

    If you are driving up, maybe car pool with other so cal people? I've been trying to get this guy to come up for a while now.

    This thread has been up a couple of weeks, and the event is in about 2 weeks. To hopefully draw more attention for the local riders to the event I added 'Napa CA' to the title.

    Life is short, riding is fun. :)

    Put this in the general or diner section as well. I never even knew this existed because I never even thought to check the regional area. I check 6 forums on the site very regularly, but never once checked the regional until you directed me to it. Some people might not even know about it! :)
