----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you'll like this!

As always, there will also be a discussion about:

1. Riding Within Your Abilities
2. Doc Wong's Smooth Street Riding Technique
3. Public Relations

The following description was provided by Michael Nelson
nelson@seahunt.imat.com

Several folks have expressed their interest in attending, but what we
need for you to do now is to CONFIRM via E-mail to Dr. Wong if you're
planning on attending.

Email docwong@docwong.com.

The clinic will meet at (of all places) a clinic... ;-)

We'll meet at 8AM at: Active Life Medical and Chiropractic Center
1391 Woodside Road,
Suite 200
Redwood City, CA 94061

Please be gassed up and ready for a three hour ride after the one hour
seminar. We won't be stopping for a snack until about 10 am, so if
you get hungry before that time of the day either bring a snack with
you or eat before you arrive.

You can gas up before the clinic at any of the numerous gas stations
on Woodside Road where the clinic is.

Dr. Harry Wong, a prominent Redwood City chiropractor and extremely
knowledgeable sport rider, has started a monthly series of Motorcycle
Riding Clinics. These seminars are FREE, and consist of a one hour
lecture followed by a three hour group ride in the beautiful Santa
Cruz mountains.

PURPOSE: Enhance your riding skills, increase your enjoyment, and
learn better riding survival reflexes.

COST: FREE

TYPE OF MOTORCYCLE: If it has 2 wheels and a motor, you're invited.

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED: Since these are not fast sport rides, any
reasonably competent rider should be able to participate. We
recommend that you be comfortable with your bike and knowledgeable
about your (and your bike's) limitations and capabilities. If you
have been riding for at least six months you've probably got the
minimum level of expertise required. The bottom line is that if you
can safely negotiate the mountainous roads off Skyline Blvd, then you
do have the minimum skills for the ride.

EQUIPMENT REQUIRED: A motorcycle in good mechanical condition, helmet,
gloves, heavy jacket (leather or heavy material), heavy pants,
boots... in other words, sensible riding attire. If you show up in
shorts, tank top, Oakley blades and flipflops on your feet, you
_may_be invited to go home. You must also have a valid motorcycle
license and insurance. Full leathers are encouraged.

RIDING LOCATION: Any and all backroads off Skyline Blvd, along
thecoast, Highway 9, etc.

HOW TO REGISTER: E-mail Dr. Wong at DOCWONG@DOCWONG.COM.

TIMES: Sunday mornings, 8:00AM to 9:00AM for the workshopwith
approximately 4 hours riding afterwards. Lunch in Davenport at
12noon. We're usually done at 2:30pm with a short talk on Skyline
Blvd (Hwy 35) and Hwy 9.

WHO: Dr. Harry Wong, with guest ride leaders, and who knows?

WORKSHOP FORMAT: The one hour talk will cover one major topic. Then
when we ride, we ride with the emphasis of applying the principles of
that one topic.

We split the riders into groups of around 10 riders each, according to
what YOU think your riding skill level is. The first group will
generally ride at a faster pace and the last group riding at the
slowest pace.

You can ride at a slower pace, you don't need to feel like you have to
keep up with the riders in front of you.

We'll have volunteer ride leaders leading you on the route thru the
hills. Those riders will be designated to you prior to beginning the
ride. As volunteer riders, they are often very willing to help you in
any way they can. So feel free to ask them questions on riding, the
route, etc.

It's important to approach this whole thing with the right attitude.

If one of the volunteer ride leaders talks to you, it's meant to be
constructive criticism and should be taken that way. After all, the
purpose of the Clinics is to improve your skills.

We try to ride at a moderate pace, and we hold the speed down on the
straights to allow slower riders to catch up. We stop at any
intersection where we're turning off to another road and we don't
continue until everyone has arrived.

We'll try to make rest stops long enough so that the slower riders
will get a rest, too.

TOPICS:

o "Cornering Confidence - Judging Entrance Speed"
o "Cornering Confidence - The Steering Input"
o "Smooth Riding - Throttle Control"
o "Cornering Confidence - Lines of Travel (1-2 Turn Method)"
o "Smooth Riding - Handle bar pressure"
o "Cornering Confidence - Pivot Steering"
o "Smooth Riding - Body English-Weight Transfer"
o "Cornering Confidence - Stable Body Position and Anchor Points"
o "Smooth Riding - Awareness and Vision"
o "Cornering Confidence - Road Surfaces and Curve Configurations"
o "Cornering Confidence - Wet Weather Riding and Loose Conditions"

RIDE ROUTE:
We start at Dr. Wong's office on Woodside Road in
Redwood City. We go up Woodside Road, through
Woodside, and turn right on King's Mountain Road. We
go up King's Mountain Road to Skyline and stop there
for a short break. This is the first opportunity for
our volunteer leaders to give any tips to the riders
they've observed.

>From there, we head down Tunitas Creek Road (described
by my late friend Brett as "a goddamned GOAT TRAIL!")
;-). We follow Tunitas Creek Road all the way down to
Highway 1, where we take a short jaunt down 1 to Stage
Road. Left on Stage road to San Gregorio's little
General Store, where we take another short break.

>From San Gregorio, we go south on Stage Road to the
little town of Pescadero (which is a veritable
METROPOLIS compared to San Gregorio and has gas). Another short break
at
Pescadero, and then we head east on Pescadero Road a
short ways to Cloverdale Road, where we turn south
(right) again. We follow Cloverdale road down to Gazos
Creek Road, where we turn west (right).

We follow Gazos Creek Road to Highway 1 (where there is gas, and then
take
a trip down 1 to Davenport, where we stop for lunch.
After lunch, it's south on Highway 1 again to Bonny
Doone Road, where we turn east (left). Don't turn
right there, or you'll be surprised at the lack of
floatation a set of leathers provides. ;-)

Up Bonny Doon Road to Smith Grade, right on Smith
Grade to Empire Grade. North (left) on Empire Grade to
Jamison Creek Road, down Jamison Creek Road to Highway
236. Right on Highway 236 to Highway 9 in Boulder
Creek. Another short break in Boulder Creek (gas, if
needed), then up Highway 9 (east) to Skyline, where we
assemble at the little rest area there for a final
meeting. After our meeting and bull session, the group
breaks up and everyone is on their own. Hope you can
find your way home from there!

Margaret, the eldest of the four, was wow gold sixteen, and very pretty, being plump and fair, with large eyes, plenty of soft, brown hair, a sweet mouth, and wow gold white hands, of which she was rather vain. Fifteen-year-old Jo was very tall, thin, and brown, and reminded one of wow gold a colt; for she never seemed to know what to do with her long limbs, which were very much in her way. She wow power leveling had a decided mouth, a comical nose, and sharp, grey eyes, which appeared to see everything, and were by turns fierce, funny, or thoughtful. Her long, thick hair was her one beauty; but it was usually bundled in a net, to be out of her way. Round shoulders had Jo, big hands and feet, a fly-away look to her clothes, and the uncomfortable appearance of a girl who was rapidly shooting up into a woman, and didn't like it. Elizabeth - or Beth, as everyone called her - was a rosy, smooth-haired, bright-eyed girl of thirteen, with a shy manner, a timid voice, and a peaceful expression, which was seldom disturbed. Her father called her `Little Tranquillity', and the name suited her excellently; for she seemed to live in a happy world of her own, only venturing out to meet the few whom she trusted and loved. Amy, though the youngest, was a most important person - -in her own opinion at least. A regular snow-maiden, with blue eyes, and yellow hair, curling on her shoulders, pale and slender, and always carrying herself like a young lady mindful of her manners. What the characters of the four sisters were we will leave to he found out.weiwei1978123

He had returned to a late dinner, after some days' absence, and now walked up to Hartfield to say that all wow power leveling were well in Brunswick Square. It was a happy circumstance, and animated Mr. Woodhouse for some time. Mr. wow power leveling Knightley had a cheerful manner, which always did him good; and his many inquiries after "poor Isabella" and her children were answered most satisfactorily. When this was over, Mr. Woodhouse gratefully observed, "It is very kind of you, Mr. Knightley, to come out at this late hour to call upon us. I am afraid you must have had a shocking walk." weiwei1978123
