David's bike caused some serious bike envy. I have searched J.P.Weigle before the S24O and have no idea how one even gets one. Maybe I don't wan't to know () It has got me wondering. When you have a bike like that (David's), you ride at night, you wander into a grocery store to get some goodies at zero dark thirty, how do you secure the bike? Or do you just roll the bike into the store and use your Ward basket as your cart? A pleasure to meet you and all of the others. You are great people.

Jim: We missed you. More than once we needed your expertise regarding a Rivendell question. We had a great time, with a total of 9. David G arrived in the middle of the night. When I went to sleep, our group was 8 in the AM it was 9. Good bunch of people on an interesting mix if bikes, including the extremes (maybe?) in Hilsen sizing. More rides are in the works already. San Diego appears to have reached critical mass they were developing several options.

Esteban: You're leaving USD @ 3? Heading north with a load, what's a reasonable time for you to get there? I'm guessing headwind from Torrey Pines to Oceanside. Across the base isn't too bad. I've got a number for you ending in 0625; still good? Mine never changes.

Do you think I need to mess with a tent? I've slept @ Doheny campground w/ no bug problems, but this is a little inland.

At 11 a second site seems a good idea, if we can get one. In the past, we've gotten 2 sites (adjacent) and usually had 12-15 campers. Locks: I always carry a lock for such situations. As David points out, we can lash several together. Few thieves can lift 3-4 Rivendells at once. Tent: Probably optional. Mine sets up quickly so I've never felt like skipping it. No bugs that I'm aware of around there but they don't bother me. dougP On Tuesday, August 20, 2013 3:39:38 PM UTC-7, hsmitham wrote: Hi David, Any friend of Manny's is our friend.

no such thing at San Mateo Esteban. There are precious few H/B sites in So Cal...Doheny and San Elijo I think are the only two. There are available sites at the Bluff campground, but they are too close to the freeway and not very nice. A few miles away from San Mateo too.

Sonny's Pizza and Pasta is one of my all-time faves... they know how to cook with garlic! Carbonara is great as well, but a touch on the fancy side for a bunch of sweaty bike campers. I love Pizza Port. Good salads and I'm happy with their pizzas. And did anyone say beer? On 8/19/13, Mike Schiller mikeybi...@rocketmail.com wrote: Dinner out on the town it is... now where?

Since I've never eaten dinner in San Clemente, I'll defer to David's experience. Sonny's looks good to me.

Re. Sonny's: Good food, great atmosphere, patio dining, cheap wine carafes! Re. locks: All the places I can think of have parking w/in eyesight out front. I'll bring a cable lock which can lock three or four bikes together. If a few other bring the same, we should be able to lock all 8-9 bikes up in a nice solid mass of lugged steel.

Ahem. Adult beverages. Thinking that a beer run (or wine or what have you) back into town after unloading and setting up camping gear might be the ticket. Can't see myself toting 12 pack (need enough to share) and ice on top of my teetering load. Don't like shopping and leaving bike out side locked or unlocked, so would prefer a partner on such a mission. It the prevailing desire is for a Riv dinner in town or group campout, I am good with either. Just need to know ahead so I don't pack too much. Take out for dinner (bring to camp on adult beverage foray) and collaborative breakfast is also an option. I am pretty easy to please, just need to know what we are doing.

David, Here is my count. 1.Me 2.Doug 3.Evan 4.You 5.Curtis 6.Mike 7.Tom 8.Jim ? 9.Estaban? 10Mitch? So I have a confirmed 8 counting Jim in as I think he was in but might drive down later. I haven't heard whether Estaban was a confirmed participant also I haven't heard back from Mitch as he lives the furthest SLO and said he wasn't setup for camping. Also, Doug said he had three friends that were interested but was holding off to see how many confirmed we ended up with. The site capacity is for 8 but since we won't have any auto's we can probably get away with now I'm guessing here 12 that's an additional 4. As a bail out plan I suppose the worst case scenario would be to take a motel in SC? I just checked there are 10 sites currently available perhaps you could book one then were good for 16 campers. It will cost $43 for the night. Go to http://www.reserveamerica.com Then Your friends and Doug's are covered.

Hugh, Thank you so much for organizing this. The following is the source of my ambiguity, quoted from my school district's start-up meeting calendar: Friday, August 23, we will be meeting at Peninsula High School for our 9-12 District Professional Development Day starting at 8:00AM. Around 3PM, PV and Pen staff will be having a kick-off mixer (more info to come). What this means is that I have no idea when I can join you all for the ride. Even if I don't go to the mixer, if I'm not free until 3, I'm screwed with So. Cal Friday traffic. I figure I'll be joining the ride Saturday morning.

Tom, Thanks for that awesome picture! And the information. I'm all set with the train and really excited about not driving a car to ride my bicycle. Best, ~Hugh On Friday, August 9, 2013 7:32:22 PM UTC-7, Tom Virgil wrote: Hello Hugh and So Cal Rivers, I found this on the Pacific Surfliner schedule PDF I downloaded... Bicycles: Most Pacific Surfliner trains have racks for six or seven bicycles located in the “cab car”. Starting June 1, 2013 these slots will be available by reservation only. Passengers must properly secure bicycles in racks. For some departures and on Thruway buses, reservations will not be available and only a limited number of bicycles can be carried. When space is available, unboxed bicycles may be put in the bin under connecting Thruway buses. Amtrak disclaims liability for loss or damage. Passengers connecting to Trains 2, 4, and 14 will be required to check a bike in a bicycle box available for a $10.00 fee. The operative word there is *Most*. I don't know if their reservation system prevents overbooking the six or seven bicycles or not. Rephrasing Doug, the Hi-Level Surfliner consists are the one's with a cab car that has slots for our bicycles. The single level consists have the baggage car in the consist. I, too, would be challenged to lift a fully loaded Riv bicycle to the level of the baggage car. My contingency is going to be to pull the large Sackville saddle bag and Barsack from the bike and carry them on. BTW, the Hi-Level (term from the Santa Fe Railroad) are not necessarily new. Some of them are conversions Santa Fe El Capitan cars that date from June 1956.

When you book your ticket you also need to add a bike. There's no charge but it reserves space on the train for your wheels. Amtrak's policy on the Surfliner is 6 bikes total per train BUT since it's new enforcement has not been stringent. I've used them 2X since it started had a bike reservation both times. A random twist that may occur is type if equipment. If the train is made up of the newer, double deck passenger cars, look for a blue bicycle logo on a car toward one end or the other. You can just wheel your bike on that without removing panniers. Melanie I happened to have this set-up on all 3 trains we used on our tour. BUT if the train is the older, single deck cars, they have steep steps up into the car. If that's the case, you need to corral the conductor (he'll actually be looking for you if you have a reservation) and LIFT your bike up to the floor level of the baggage car, about shoulder height. I can't do this with any amount of panniers. Same drill getting off. The conductor has to go into the car and hand your bike down to you on the platform. This was what I encountered on both trains I used a couple of weeks ago, and it was in Ventura that I found out about it. dougP On Thursday, August 8, 2013 9:10:03 PM UTC-7, hsmitham wrote: Gentlemen, Working on my Amtrak return trip.

In talking to the station agent, trains that may be single or bi-level, it depends on what equipment they have. Not a very satisfying answer. Oh, well. We'll deal with it.

An interesting half-way point is: http://www.capistranodepot.com/ which has patio seating, convenient for keeping an eye on the bike. Sarducci's has been there forever does a nice job. If we leave the Irvine Amtrak we'd be there in roughly 1.5-2 hours. A leisurely lunch we'd be at San Mateo mid-late afternoon. We need a final head count ETAs from others so we can finalize the plan. I like the 11:00 AM at Irvine Amtrak but can be flexible on that if Jim, David, et al need something later. OTH, we don't all have to travel every mile together. Same highway, buddy system works too. Everyone who intends to go should speak up with their plans / constraints / desires / etc. Jim David: let me know if you need help with timing routing. Absolute worst case is park in Tustin, hop on Metrolink to San Clemente meet us at camp.

..can you once again remind me again the bicycle policy on the Pacific Surf liner? When you book your ticket you also need to add a bike. There's no charge but it reserves space on the train for your wheels. Amtrak's policy on the Surfliner is 6 bikes total per train BUT since it's new enforcement has not been stringent. I've used them 2X since it started had a bike reservation both times. A random twist that may occur is type if equipment. If the train is made up of the newer, double deck passenger cars, look for a blue bicycle logo on a car toward one end or the other. You can just wheel your bike on that without removing panniers. Melanie I happened to have this set-up on all 3 trains we used on our tour. BUT if the train is the older, single deck cars, they have steep steps up into the car. If that's the case, you need to corral the conductor (he'll actually be looking for you if you have a reservation) and LIFT your bike up to the floor level of the baggage car, about shoulder height. I can't do this with any amount of panniers. Same drill getting off. The conductor has to go into the car and hand your bike down to you on the platform.

Re: [RBW] Re: Calling all SoCal Rivsters S240 August 23rd anyone? See details below.
Hello Hugh and So Cal Rivers, I found this on the Pacific Surfliner schedule PDF I downloaded... Bicycles: Most Pacific Surfliner trains have racks for six or seven bicycles located in the “cab car”. Starting June 1, 2013 these slots will be available by reservation only. Passengers must properly secure bicycles in racks. For some departures and on Thruway buses, reservations will not be available and only a limited number of bicycles can be carried. When space is available, unboxed bicycles may be put in the bin under connecting Thruway buses. Amtrak disclaims liability for loss or damage. Passengers connecting to Trains 2, 4, and 14 will be required to check a bike in a bicycle box available for a $10.00 fee. The operative word there is *Most*. I don't know if their reservation system prevents overbooking the six or seven bicycles or not. Rephrasing Doug, the Hi-Level Surfliner consists are the one's with a cab car that has slots for our bicycles. The single level consists have the baggage car in the consist. I, too, would be challenged to lift a fully loaded Riv bicycle to the level of the baggage car. My contingency is going to be to pull the large Sackville saddle bag and Barsack from the bike and carry them on. BTW, the Hi-Level (term from the Santa Fe Railroad) are not necessarily new. Some of them are conversions Santa Fe El Capitan cars that date from June 1956. I rode the El Capitan between LA and Chicago a number of times and enjoyed the experience. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-4oho_TW0Gpo/UgWj0hmiBnI/AAw/kwdK1ZkEvFo/s1600/800px-Sante_Fe_Railroad_El_Capitan.jpg Samuel Hillborne bike recon mission for tomorrow is going to be to ride down to the Solana Beach transit station, find a time between Coasters and Amtraks (not busy), and chat up one of the station agents as to the notion that certain train numbers consistently run a specific type consist.

Looks like I'll need to let my beard grow in order to ride with you guys! So with a bunch of 1100 am arrivals... what's your agenda for the afternoon before heading down? I could certainly be on the Surfliner that arrives at 1100 am. Is there some nice lunch spot with hand crafted ales nearby? ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Mike, I like the way you think. Cause I was thinking the same. Yet since I don't know Squat about Irvine I do a search of places and sure Doug can recommend something good.

11 AM is a bit early for lunch but an excellent time start a ride. An interesting half-way point is: http://www.capistranodepot.com/ which has patio seating, convenient for keeping an eye on the bike. Sarducci's has been there forever does a nice job. If we leave the Irvine Amtrak we'd be there in roughly 1.5-2 hours. A leisurely lunch we'd be at San Mateo mid-late afternoon. We need a final head count ETAs from others so we can finalize the plan. I like the 11:00 AM at Irvine Amtrak but can be flexible on that if Jim, David, et al need something later. OTH, we don't all have to travel every mile together. Same highway, buddy system works too. Everyone who intends to go should speak up with their plans / constraints / desires / etc. Jim David: let me know if you need help with timing routing. Absolute worst case is park in Tustin, hop on Metrolink to San Clemente meet us at camp. And that's pretty easy. dougP On Friday, August 9, 2013 8:44:35 PM UTC-7, hsmitham wrote: Mike, I like the way you think. Cause I was thinking the same.

Gentlemen, Working on my Amtrak return trip. I figure we'll ride the single track in the mid morning and figure on a couple of hours then pack up and head North to Irvine to catch the train back to Burbank. I have two choices 1:40 pm or 5:49 pm those that are heading North any thoughts? Also spoke with Curtis and were meeting in Irvine around 11 am just thought I'd mention it. Doug, can you once again remind me again the bicycle policy on the Pacific Surf liner. Thanks in advance.

Re: [RBW] Re: Calling all SoCal Rivsters S240 August 23rd anyone? See details below.
Rivendell Hugh, I have a lot going on the 23th due to work, but I am committed to getting there and camping with you folks. I want to see all of you you and see your bikes. Whether I ride from Del Mar or do some combination of contingencies (train + bike) I will get there. I've figured out several Amtrak options. Even if it's after dark. Do you still have some space for me, a Samuel Hillborne, and modest tent space? I do regret that I cannot commit to getting up to starting from Irvine for the full S24O from the transit station or Doug's in the timeframe (have lighting, and can deal with dark if I do it later). I may opt with Doug and either bring take out or ride out for comeda. I don't want to take all the cook gear. OTOH, once I've got there, I have a largish Sackville, saddle bag and can do carrier service back into civilization for supplies and any liquid refreshment that might be required to ensure restful sleep. I might opt to ride back South with any San Diegans or those who would like to extend their ride and visit our county. Let me know. I ride slow. un-racer. Do you have a reservation and how do I specify the campsite when I get there?. What did this cost you to reserve? May I contribute? I am a short timer in this group, but I have seen such passion about these bikes and the people here that I feel compelled to meet all of you that turn out. Heck yes, I am bringing camera and iPhone (gotta prove that it happened to wife). Perhaps we should create a proof that it happened clump on flickr and post so other folks can enjoy.

So this is what I have: 9 riders total 4 are definite shows: Doug, Evan, Curtis Me riding from Irvine. 5 are maybe's have to work or rearrange schedules Tom Virgil, David Estes, Jim Warren, Mitch Browne and Mike Shiller. Tom needs to rearrange his schedule, David is working and may need to meet in San Clemente, Jim is being held captive on a mandatory meeting, Mitch has possible work conflict start of school and I heard from Mike that his ankle is still problematic with swelling so as he put it backpacking with 35 lbs not the best idea, so he might be up for pedaling. So I think a 4 pm start it is. Camp Friday night and plan on the Single track ride Saturday morning that David mentioned. David can you give us some more statistics on the No Tools trail? Distance ect... Since SC is so close how many would want to ride in the morning for Breakfast? Or do we want the full camp experience and make all our meals? Doug I know where you stand on this one. Doug is on the restaurant side of the ledger. Also I may ride South on Saturday to meet up with my wife in Oceanside? I need to confirm with her on her plans for that weekend...we have friends in Oceanside Carlsbad she may visit with.

TOPIC DRIFT ALERT: Generally it's best to sell things on the forum as a separate topic however, but I'd like to sell a Nitto Top rack r-14, or trade it for a rack (like a tubus cosmos) that would allow for rear panniers. I'd prefer to not ship it which is why I'm offering it here, and I thought I'd ask you guys first. I'd like to sell it for agood price because I am the second owner, but only used it for a few months. does $80 seem reasonable? sincerely, Evan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

That is if you can't find a trade. On the group make sure to post as FS/WTT Nitto R-14 rack for Tubus Cosmo rack and select the transaction tab. Of course if you already know all this then disregard.

Re: [RBW] Re: Calling all SoCal Rivsters S240 August 23rd anyone? See details below.
Agreed. So this is what I have: 9 riders total 4 are definite shows: Doug, Evan, Curtis Me riding from Irvine. 5 are maybe's have to work or rearrange schedules Tom Virgil, David Estes, Jim Warren, Mitch Browne and Mike Shiller. Tom needs to rearrange his schedule, David is working and may need to meet in San Clemente, Jim is being held captive on a mandatory meeting, Mitch has possible work conflict start of school and I heard from Mike that his ankle is still problematic with swelling so as he put it backpacking with 35 lbs not the best idea, so he might be up for pedaling. So I think a 4 pm start it is. Camp Friday night and plan on the Single track ride Saturday morning that David mentioned. David can you give us some more statistics on the No Tools trail? Distance ect... Since SC is so close how many would want to ride in the morning for Breakfast? Or do we want the full camp experience and make all our meals? Doug I know where you stand on this one. Doug is on the restaurant side of the ledger. Also I may ride South on Saturday to meet up with my wife in Oceanside? I need to confirm with her on her plans for that weekend...we have friends in Oceanside Carlsbad she may visit with.

Re: [RBW] Re: Calling all SoCal Rivsters S240 August 23rd anyone? See details below.
No Tools has minimal overall elevation gain. Lots of little rollers over/around/through the different gullies coming down from the hills. Rideable with any sort of tire or bike, just depends on how fast you want to go. I'd say at most 2 hrs out and back. Don't know the distance, I Just Ride it. :-) It's a very nice intro to singletrack for anyone not used to technical rides (I take my 11 y.o. on it, he can ride it all) and a smile-inducing ride for the pros who just want to be out and about a mile from the ocean.

Re: [RBW] Re: Calling all SoCal Rivsters S240 August 23rd anyone? See details below.
What route were you planning on from Tustin? Likely take Irvine Center Dr to Barranca past the Irvine Amtrak station. There's a couple of ways thru the Saddleback Valley that roughly parallel the tracks (always the path of least resistance) or Alicia Pkwy to Crown Valley to the coast at Monarch Bay (more hilly, more scenic) south on PCH. We can sort out the details as we go but with cell phones is easy to make changes on the fly. No worries. dougP On Saturday, August 3, 2013 1:06:55 PM UTC-7, Mike Schiller wrote: maybe I should throw on the big knobbies just in case? What route were you planning on from Tustin?

Tom, Hope you can make it. As Grant puts it a S240 is a quick not too many logistical issues involved affair, and even if there are issues it's just an overnight the next day were all back to civilization. But yes it is shaping up nicely. I hope to put more of these together and try to bring more SoCal Riv riders together and not let the NorCalers have all the fun. As Evan put it, it's nice to have a mental health day. Best.

Re: [RBW] Re: Calling all SoCal Rivsters S240 August 23rd anyone? See details below.
I think we can shoot for 4 pm or so. Lets get some feedback on depart time. If Jim can make it then it needs to be later. Jim what time will work for you or do you want to opt out on this part and figure as you put it to crash the event. I'll probably get down early and ride around Irvine and visit with Doug, so perhaps Curtis we'll meet up.

I might have to meet up in SC. On 8/2/13, Tom Virgil tevir...@gmail.com wrote: This is starting to shape up to be something too good to miss. In am going to really try to reshuffle some professional obligations and make it happen. After all, it is S24O. There must be some time I can find. Barring any passage problems on Camp Pendleton, I would be riding up from Del Mar in the early evening to San Mateo. I think it is really nice of Hugh to propose this.

For those in the North we could meet at Doug P's home and ride the 30 miles to the site. Those in the South could either meet us at the Metro link station in Irvine and ride down with us or ride the Metro link to Oceanside and ride through Camp Pendleton to the site, a few options to choose from. Suggestions are welcome. Once there we can jump in the Pacific and rollick in the surf. I figure this would be a good date before the Labor Day weekend. Here's the rub though, there is only one site available at this moment so I need a count quick before I reserve it.
