I will head south on Hwy 1 until we meet up. My guess would be between Sea Ranch and Jenner.

I must be calendar challenged. I am free on the 13th, sorry for all the static.

How about July 12th

How about the 27th. I'm on vacation the 13th thru the 23rd.

This NorCal misfit is busy that weekend. How about a ride a little further north next time (128)?

It's raining here in Mendocino so I am staying in. Enjoy the ride.

Moving the ride to Sunday is a good call (so far) it is pouring rain here in Mendocino.

I'm in, I'll meet up with you somewhere on highway 1.

Grum, Thanks for the comments, you may have solved my problem. First, the Fuel Pump is working fine and when I have this problem to get it started I turn it off, turn it on open the throttle ... even read the manual. Let me tell you about my commute, the first 24,000 miles it was 17 miles each way. Now I warm it up (because of the starting issue) then drive the whole one mile to work. Coming home, I start it up and drive home, put it away. I will let it get to temp and hopefully this will be the solution. It's been raining lately so I have not been on it, will update if I continue to have problems. Thanks again

Starts when it is warm. It can site for 6 hours and start normally, idle speed is 1200-1300,no work has been done, and fuel pump primes normally as well. No other issues just this starting when it sits for more then a day.

On my 2008 with 28,000 miles I sometimes have problems starting it when cold. Cranks fine but won't catch, after a few attempts it will eventually start but I noticed it is at idle RPM. Seems like it is not setting up high RPMs to start although after a second or 2 it will set a higher RPM until it gets to running temp. The FI light does not flash any errors the battery is good. Any debugging or solutions suggestions?

I worked the Redwood Valley fire on Monday will be back out next week. I was concerned about our Mendocino, Napa, and Sonoma members - Brian please update us.

Sad topic and a strange coincidence that July 22nd is my birthday as well. Is this a requirement? And since it is my birthday I have made other plans, will miss the ride.

Can't join up with you this time the wife and I have plans in Oakland but you still might see us on 128 (if a blue Honda Crosstour flashes head lights that will be me). I did tow a boat over 128 on Wednesday, the road is open and in good shape after all the storms. Enjoy the ride see you next time.

With the predicted storm coming in on Wednesday 128 is likely to close. Also, there is an 60% chance of rain on Saturday and 80% on Sunday. The 28th-29th maybe a better choice. I will keep following the thread and try to join in depending on weather.
