Anyone riding the Hemet Double this weekend?

I rode it last year and enjoyed it. Met Rick@OCRR and Isabelle Drake during it.

Not me. I might volunteer, but I'm thinking of volunteering for the Mulholland Double instead ... heckuva lot closer.

I'll be there again, yes. My wife Jackie will be riding it too, with her friend Rosanne. Isabelle will be there too, plus Angela will be riding her first double.

Looks like the weather should be good on the day.

Should be fun; hopefully Victor can make it out to Hemet too!

Will look for you Rick. Sounds as if there will be quite a few Bulls there.

Is Victor the guy that went over the bars, and landed on his feet, at the Temecula sag stop?

No, Victor is Biker395 here on bikeforums. The guy that went over the handlebars and stayed upright was Tom; no idea what his last name is.

Thanks for the correction, Rick. It would be nice if Victor does show up at Hemet. There was a rider at the Grand Tour last year that I spoke with the Sunday morning after Solvang. He said he was going to volunteer at Hemet.

Looks like I'll be staying local and volunteering on the Mulholland Challenge/Double this weekend. Volunteering is the silver lining in the cloud of being unable to ride for the next couple of weeks.

Would have been nice to meet you. Just got some work travel estimates, and I may have to add Eastern Sierra to my calendar to get my Triple Crown in for sure this year.

Just sent in my registration for the ESD, so barring some nightmare (deer, bedbugs, etc.) ... hell ... even with them, I'll be there. It'd be great to meet you!
