My brother in law just got his moto license. He's coming up from San Diego to see what LA riding is all about.

I was thinking the usual SM Mountains route (Up Las Flores---- Down Mulholland/PCH)...beginning at Sunset/PCH @ 8:30AM. Meet at Main Street Coffee Bean in Santa Monica @ approx 9AM. We'll do a drive by on the Sunset/PCH gas station (not the closed one) at about 9:30 and pick up and stragglers.

Hope some of the SoCal Hooligans can join.

Yeah, I'm still missing the Santa Monicas. :P

Ride safe.

Awww man (and woman). Supa sorry. We were on schedule, however we got held up at the coffee bean through a series of circumstances. We did pick people up at Sunset, however Sachica was not one of them (clearly).

No worries. Since I failed to notify anyone I was thinking about coming I knew there was a chance I'd be riding by myself.  Besides, I ended up riding most of the morning with a guy on a drz, so I could always pretend it was Madmatt.  :)

yeah... other than the fact that he's recently retired the drz in favor of an sm510r.

Looks like she passed some Monsters that were coming up as she was headed back to the RS*.




*That sentence almost read it looks like she saw some Monsteres coming up as she was going back down for more   [laugh]
