I was going to switch up the route this year, but it was so much fun, and every other route involves slabbing it for too long......Ed, do you want to join me? That (Fri Sep 09, 5am?) would give us plenty of time to enjoy some scenery. If you want to switch it up a little around Paso Robles, I recall a Chimney Rock / Peachy Canyon loop. Quote

Slightly confused: 9/10 map link shows your route to Kernville. 9/11 map link starts at Shaver Lake.  Sorry, made that kind of confusing. 9/9: everyone meets in Kernville 9/10: ride Kernville to Shaver Lake 9/11: ride Shaver Lake to Georgetown  In the past, SoCal people have peeled off sometime after Saturday, or ridden through and then made the trek home on Monday. Typically, numbers-wise, NorCal wins out big time so I don't really consider doing a "basecamp" type of ride i.e. T-Mac.  16 hours ago, crazybrother said: Who and what are the travel plans for Friday down from Nor-Cal?  I'm going to leave work around noon or so, like last year. Then just grind it out down 99 and take 178 up through Kern Canyon. Unless you want to try to hit CA155 and find some sand! Quote

Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted August 16, 2016 Member Contributer Posted August 16, 2016 Well, my plans may have been hindered.  The project that was supposed to be done by the end of August got pushed back into September...Hopefully I can still make it but if not, I'll shoot for next year! Quote
Member Contributer crazybrother Posted August 17, 2016 Member Contributer Posted August 17, 2016 I'm doing Motels both nights... Who wants to share a room? Where are we going to stay in Lake Isabella and How about Shaver Lake? Quote

It's pretty small though. Â Quote

Member Contributer St. Stephen Posted August 18, 2016 Member Contributer Posted August 18, 2016 I'm booked Kernville Inn Friday Shaver Lake Hotel Saturday, they still have rooms.  I stayed in Kernville in June on my way back from L.A. on the VFR. The sketchy bar is still across the street, and the brewery has expanded to twice the size. Quote
Member Contributer crazybrother Posted August 19, 2016 Member Contributer Posted August 19, 2016 So, does anyone want to share the rooms...? Quote
BrianF Posted August 24, 2016 Author Posted August 24, 2016 Booked Kernivlle Inn. FYI that was their last two-double room. Quote
Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted August 24, 2016 Member Contributer Posted August 24, 2016 Bummed, the project I have did indeed move to the first two weeks of September! I'll have to live vicariously through any pics and post you guys put up.    I did tell SFdownhill to join you guys, he'd be coming from Vista, Ca. so even further than me. Maybe Stucky and he can caravan together. Quote
Member Contributer RC1237V Posted August 24, 2016 Member Contributer Posted August 24, 2016 Just booked mine, Kernville Inn has no more rooms, so I booked at the Kern Inn........... Quote

I'll PM SFdownhill - thanks.  Also updated the first post with a couple notes. Quote
