    What is the Fully Loop? Change your "maybe " to a "yes" and find out.

    It's where we gather every Thursday for a fun ride around the famous Fully Loop. This is not a hard ride but a fun one.

    Meet at The Court House parking lot on Berkeley. 2 start times to meet the need. 1st lap meets at 4:45pm, rolls at 5pm SHARP(pace is brisk). Very little re-group with an average lap time of 1 hr 15 min. You are expected to keep up. So do not wait to roll out or you will find yourself way behind. Back in time to re-group and roll out with the second lap that meets at 6:15 and rolls out at 6:45pm SHARP(social pace). This lap is more of a social ride. The idea is to ride with the group and not hang in the rear and ride alone. We re-group often with an average lap time of 1 hr 45 min.

    Hammerheads, this is not a race, it's a social ride. We need to try a remember that this a group ride and not 3 groups riding on the same night. Waiting for all riders at the regroups will be expected and much appreciated. :bang:

    Lights are a must! Be prepared. Should be back by 8:30 pm. [-o-]

    Join us afterwards for the "Tea party" at Roscoe's about 9pm for some grub, drink and whatever happens.

    Meeting place:
    1275 North Berkeley Avenue
    Fullerton, CA 92832-1258

    Directions from the 91 fwy: Exit Harbor Blvd and go north. Left on Berkeley, turn into No. County Court House parking lot.

    Directions from the 57 fwy: Exit Chapman and go west. Right on Harbor, left on Berkeley, turn into No. County Court House parking lot.

    Remember, What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, but whatever happens at Roscoe's gets posted here! ;)

    Is it going to be dry enough to ride? Looks like there is more rain in the forecast for this week?

    Would you guys be okay with me using this Thursday's Fullerton Loop as the inaugural ride on my SS? I promise to give it the full parking lot test beforehand.

    I'll be there provided I can find some way to whip up a quick-fix to make my Xmas present (new Halogen) fit the OS handlebar.

    Changed my work schedule just so I could finally do an STR Fully ride....then somebody went & scheduled a meeting that I have to attend! There's a chance it might get canceled though (I hope, I hope).

    Dupee - lemme check my stash of parts. I might have something to use to mount those lights, if your LBS doesn't.

    Genus, I appreciate the info, but I need the pads back! I can't remember where the hell I put them.

    My wife didn't know that I have an OS stem when she bought the light as a gift, so the mount will not work close to the stem. So I have to either: A) Mount the light farther out where the handlebar is not as thick (with the missing pads) or B) Buy some adapted mount that'll fit or C) Buy a helmet mount or D) Jerry-rig something.

    Seeing BrewMaster's amazing homemade mount a few weeks ago inspired me to get creative. Though--if I remember correctly--the homemade job didn't even make it out of the courthouse parking lot. :)

    I should have it all worked out by Thursday.
