[GRRiders] Santa Rosa 400k

[rhawks at lmi.net]

Nicole,

I'll see you at the SR 400k. If the 400k is like the 300k
in terms of parking, there will be a lot right
next to R&K where you can park. The lot where R&K is
has businesses that are open on saturday, the lot next
to it did not for the 300k. 

I'll leave the clothing question for others to answer.

As for the times, I'm wondering about that. Is this year's
course the same as last years? It sounds the same. The
weather forecast seems pretty much the same as what was 
reported for last year too.

>From the 400k report of last year, here is an outline of the
route:

The course was roughly Healdsburg to Middletown, via Ukiah, east to Upper Lake
on the north shore of Clear Lake, Hwy 20 down the eastern shore of Clear Lake,
Old Hwy 53 most of the way to Lower Lake via Sulfur Bank Rd. and the old town
of Clear Lake (a town that time has forgotten), Hwy 29 from Lower Lake to
Middletown, and returned to Healdsburg via the same route in reverse. Bill
Oettinger gave me the Sulfur Bank Rd. detail, which gets you off of Hwy 53
between the southeastern end of Clear Lake and almost all the way to Lower Lake
on old roads (some of them very old).
