    I'm really excited to go this weekend. I was thinking about bringing my stinky. It has 2.6 tires a 180mm fork and weights 37 lbs. Do you think it will make it on the lifts?

    ^^Let a little air out of the tires, use a dog collar to reduce the travel on the fork, and take off the pedals before you put it on the lift and you'll be golden. Oh and remember to replace the bash guard with a fake second ring. I'm sure they won't notice the lack of a front derailleur...

    JUST A REMINDER.

    Check if Hwy 330 is open on Saturday through CALTrans site, otherwise take the 18 or 38.

    Good thing you brought this up as the 330 was open memorial day wknd without restrictions, but I think you can only use it during commuter hours m-f. Not sure if it's open without restrictions on the wknds.

    just take the 38 or 18. even when the 330 is open i avoid it like the plague. thats the total tourist route, nobody turns out and you end up going 30 mph the whole way unless you make a dozen passes. the 38 is longer but a much more relaxing drive. the 18 thru the dez is almost all fwy, 20 min longer also but no frustration involved.

    Heads up, Caltrans has the 330 Closed as of right now. Use the 38 or 18 instead!
