Returned from our ride on Sat! Had a fantastic time. Stayed at Big Bear the previous Sat night and had to ride out of the fog on Sunday morning as the clouds were shrouding the whole mtn. Stayed in Madera the 2nd night at a real nice AirBnB house in the vineyards. The skies opened up by the time we reached Fresno on the way there. By the 3rd day and for the rest of the trip we had no more rain and nice cool temps in the 50’s, 60’s & 70’s. We rode the foothills from Madera on up. Rt 222 is an absolute hidden gem with great pavement & little traffic. We may have stretched the law just “slightly” through that section. Made our way to Seaside and spent 2 nights. Did a loop ride into beautiful farm country on G16 and across to Hwy 1 on Nacimiento Fergusson Rd (another couple of fun roads) and back up 1 to Seaside. From there it was to Atascadero via 25/198 thru Coalinga. Then to Solvang the next day to see the Motorcycle museum. This guy has a little bit of everything. If you’ve never been, I highly recommend it. They are normally only open on weekends but with prearrangement they opened it for us on Fri afternoon. From there we spent the night in Ventura and stayed the last night at Big Bear Lake again. This was a reunion of all the folks that I rode with last summer in Slovenia and Croatia, sans my brother from Ohio, whom couldn’t make it. Always love your good roads in Cali!!
