Have fun at Tahoe ... bet you'll wish you had the BIKE with you! That road around the lake made me dream for my bike or a Viper.

Be safe ... catch you at the next bike night.

I'll be there ... hopefully riding if the rain will stay away.

90% chance of storms tonight. If you're planning on riding, you might want to rethink that. And either way, everyone be safe and I'll see you all tonight!

I've got a meeting at 6 that could be an hour or two. I'll be there after.

there will be at least one bike holding the sidewalk down

but yea, I completely agree with firewa11, if you plan to ride, take extra caution with the weather conditions

How much does it freakin rain there? Also how many bikes usually turn out?

In the spring / early summer, we get wicked thunderstorms, usually every few days, but they don't typically last very long. In the summer, we get droughts more often than not, going weeks, even months without a drop of rain. In the fall it usually makes up for it, with several days / weeks of rain. Then in the winter it's usually fairly dry and cold, occasionally snow or ice storms, and periodical periods of rain typically lasting a few days.

As far as how many bikes we get to Bike Night, it really depends on the weather more often than not. On a good night, we typically have between 20 and 30 bikes. When it's really rainy, we get the few, the proud, the insane that ride

When it's bad weather most of the regulars cage it in, like most of us will be doing tonight.

always be aware that the spring yeilds unpredictable hail storms (that stuff hurts!)

i love riding in the rain, just need to get some rain suit or a HEFTY bag

Damnit, my meeting just got pushed back to 6:30.

Looks like I'm going to be way late, if I make it at all.

Yeah I know how that goes. I used to live in wichita falls I had to deal with a few tornadoes a time or two when I lived there.
