A local yokal named Barry, on this board as Airhead-something-something, is always generating spam emails about upcoming local rides.
"Ride this Wed to Big Sur!"
"Ride this Friday to Jalama!"
"Ride this Tuesday to Jockos!"
and, well you get the idea.
The bastard's retired, thinks all of life is a party, simply goes to the mailbox to collect the big fat check, then states
"Let's ride, boyz!"
Ok, sure, embellished just a bit
.
Truthfully, he's a hell of a nice guy and the worlds smartest human-GPS.
He's forgotten more roads than I've ridden, sets a good pace, and is always in a good mood.
I mean, why wouldn't he be - he's retired, collecting fat retirement checks and can ride anytime he wants to!
:fuck:
So, since Barry finally had a Sunday ride, so us working stiffs could go, I went.
BTW - this RR is really pretty weak, but since so many of our brethren are snowed in, and football domes are collapsing in Minn-eeeee-Soda and what not, I'd thought I'd take the time to post, not to rub it in :devil: but in order to offer hope. :drinks: .
The meet up point, Santa Margarita, Ca, just off the 101 north of San Luis Obispo.
Lots of different bikes, BMW, Cagiva, Harley, Suzuki, 3 FJR's. BTW, TreeDoc, where the hell were you, bubba?
It was sunny and actually warm in Santa Margarita, about 72F and with the base layers and all it was too hot. I actually thought I might break out in perspiration. Fortunately, the weather got really nasty just several miles up the road. Check this out..
The brave and intrepid Kali rides pressed forward, even against all weather odds and were rewarded with..
At the junction of 58W and Bitterwater the group stopped to reassemble as the fast riders had jetted ahead and the other riders had a slower start. Good group riding today, I was impressed with the quality of riders in this eclectic group.
Bitterwater road, looking North.
Lots of farmers are preparing the ground for hay, barley, wheat. It's that time of year out here.
Next stop, Parkfield, Ca, 'Earthquake Capitol of the World'.
The Cagiva sounded great, and smelled like a real motorbike should, with hot oil scents wafting up and behind. Great bike.
Once again, as usual, KrZy8 was the dirtiest old whore there. And yes, SkooterG, I'm stealing the term 'dirty old whore' from you since your DOW, bless her heart, is now RIP.
The Parkfield Inn did a GREAT job accommodating all of us - individual checks, complimentary bottles of wine because they thought the service was too slow (I thought it was fine), and the food was really, really good. Check out the interior.
On the way home, I found BustaNut's heaven.. Just look at all those fine, young, beautiful, shapely....... :chickawow:
After splitting off from the group, I rode some back roads to find this. I want to go back with the dual sport, sneak in, and see where it goes.. :aaevil:
Well, that's about it. 200 miles, 11 Am to 4:40 Pm, another fun day in the Kali sun.
Sorry 'bout that, Frostbacks.
