Typically, we head to the Vons on the north side of town to shop and get gas. It's a big parking lot so can handle a group and has everything in one spot. I would say either meet at the Vons or at the air down spot at the beginning of the...

Sorry I had to leave the meeting early. Daniel crashed my ebike and had a headache so my wife took him to the hospital. CT was negative for issues so they treated his abrasions, of which he has some good ones, and sent him home. He is sore but...

Aw man....

Excellent!

Yeah, I have never used one myself. Maybe we should do something else. Frank

No worries, I am sure someone will. If not, maybe a good excuse to get more tools! Frank

Hi Frank & thanks for the response. SD is a little off my radar. Hoping a South OC member will respond. may the force be with you!

I have one. Back Monday. Frank

That will be an adventure!.

The Big Bear Trip sounds great, count me in! What are the Agenda/Schedule ideas looking like? I would like to head to the Sierras Coyote Flats Trip right from Big Bear. - Howie

Most excellent!!!

So the nightly meal menu is by no means a requirement, but if there is a dish you like to make in the wild that fits the theme feel free make it. I will have my flat top and lots of propane so if you need it, it's there. It's not uncommon...

Friends, is anyone bringing a friends with them that are not on the attendee list? We'd like to make sure we bring enough meat for the BBQ night. Frank

The weather is looking to be amazing. Note that if you search Funnel Lake weather, sometime is gives you Bishop weather which is much warmer. Accurate Funnel Lake weather will show night time temps typically cooler than we see where we camp. if...

Appreciate the response, I ended up with one from city racer and it works like a charm now. On to other issues!

I just had a similar issue on my 60, gauge would read below 1/4 and that's as high as it would go. It turns out the aftermarket fuel sending unit had an arm that was too long and was hitting something in the tank. I was able to bend it to get...

Well some of us won't be back for the next meeting. But would be happy to fill in with our adventures for the September meeting!

Hopefully we can work out the camp/shoot and xmas party next meeting. I am cool with 6th/7th so hopefully that can stick. Frank

Could you make it if we did the shoot the 6th/7th weekend?

Well, we could do this or the party the weekend prior. Doing this the weekend prior could mean less crowds since it would be right after Thanksgiving but I suspect both dates will be good from that perspective since there is usually a lull...

Is that the weekend for the xmass party?

Thanks for the update.

Cool! I have an 80 series RC truck. My wife got for me when ours was in the shop for an extended period of time. I called it Therapy Truck. Frank

Looks like a great time. I would have loved to join you. Hopefully next time. We ended up heading up to Bishop area for a couple nights. Stayed at Kennedy Meadows one night (heavy bear activity), then up to Lake Sabrina for two nights, stopping...

Friends, I wanted to throw out the weekend of 12/12 for the Camp and Shoot this year. If there are no objections, maybe we can get it on the schedule. Let me know thoughts. Frank
