Hello everyone on the left coast...Been checking out this website for awhile and enjoyed all the stuff.
It seems like a pretty cool group. I miss my days in Vallejo, CA. beautiful country.

Since everyone seems to favor Polaris I thought I'd check them out.
Well bought an 05 Sportsman Mossy Oak Hunter Edition this weekend :D :D :D

I take delivery on Tuesday...can't wait.

Mare Island was on Mythbusters....The Hammer breaking a fall into water myth. Buster got dropped a bunch of times from the crane across the from the Ferry Terminal.


My aunt worked there for years. She made the "tent" that covered the rear end of the Subs in for Servicing so the Soviets couldn't take pictures.

I did not know that. I was there for about 6 mos. going to Class "C" school.
I really miss the area. Too bad my wife would never move there. She's waiting for CA. to fall off the mainland :lol:
It looks like some nice riding out there, maybe someday a trip will be in my future.

Not in her lifetime.

Actually, Vallejo isn't one of the nicer areas to live. But it's close to stuff.

The club has been around for awhile. It was started in Feb 1973. We are doing a club run tomorrow behind Tuolumne going out towards Cherry Lake. Should be a good snow run.

Looking forward to riding again (last surgery was Aug2005). Talk at ya'll soon!!
