GCR II

The roads were smooth, but the next day was rough! After a great ride, its always hard not to get carried away with good times when the bike turns off, or runs out of gas. The party at Good Speed and Macheen lasted all night, but our leave time for Belden was pretty relaxed, so people were able to sleep in.

Ooops. This would be the end of the road for Jonathan

In Oroville, Phil, while riding his knucklehead had a flat tire. He pulled it off brilliantly! That thing was sideways a couple times as he tried to navigate the bike off the road. When he finally came to a stop, I think we all smiled a little, and I think he changed his shorts!

GOLDENCHAIN RUN 2016, BELDEN 7

OK, here is the schedule and route for run next weekend, September 2-4. Leave from Sonora, or from wherever you are if you can't meet us at the clubhouse, and head to Grass Valley. The destination in GV is: 

12731 Loma Rica Dr.

Grass Valley CA 95945

This is the place we will all be headed to from Sonora. If you are headed to Sonora, there might be an early pack and a late pack headed north on 49. Early would be around 3, and late would be after work, around 5. If neither of these times work for you, just meet us in Grass Valley.

Saturday morning we will all head north on 49, and then through Quincy, and finally into the Feather River Canyon, ending in Belden.

Belden 7 & Goldenchain Run 2016

The Goldenchain Run will once again end in Belden, where the rest of the party will be happening. Lots of people will ride straight there, so if you can't meet up with us on the road, meet us in Belden!

GCR: September 2-4. Leaving Sonora friday afternoon from the clubhouse, headed to Grass Valley. We're waiting on one last detail before we get the address for the meeting spot. We plan on being in GV around 6 or 7pm.

GOLDENCHAIN RUN 2016!!! September 2-4

OK, so here is our updated schedule for the GCR this year: Meeting up at the clubhouse in Sonora Friday afternoon on September 2, and leaving Sonora around 3pm or 4pm. Obviously leaving on a Friday makes it hard for people to get time off of from work, but it won't be a huge pack ride from Sonora to GV. The pack from GV hopefully will include all the late night arrivals, and stragglers from work.

Leave Grass Valley Saturday morning and head up 49, almost to the end, and then head down the Feather River Canyon to Belden. Simple as that.

We will update you one more time on the meet up spot in GV. We know where we're staying, we just can't post the address online! Most likely we will meet up in downtown at one of the bars and then ride all together into camp. This will be good for people who are coming from the bay, or sac and want to skip the first leg of 49. Even though we don't recommend that!

Golden Chain Run 2016

Here it is! Here is the official flyer for the run. Pretty much the same as last year, but we will start on SATURDAY September 3, and head to Grass Valley. We will head from there, north on 49, all the way to the 89, to the 70, and finally to Belden. This is the current route and schedule. Stay tuned for updates!
