All sound advice, thanks!  Especially on Luca.  Any twisty roads near the west side that you'd recommend?

+1 on lawbreaker's suggestion.

Sorry I missed you guys last night, will definitely make there another Wednesday night.

Thanks ICON, I'm pretty geared-up, I look like a walking Dainese billboard.  If you change your mind, and let me meet you somewhere for a ride, let me know.  If anyone else wouldn't mind babysitting a little, I'd be very grateful!!

Greetings Fish!  Welcome to the pahrty pahl!

I'm off on Friday afternoons so if you are too, I'd be happy to show you around the neighborhood, canyon wise.
I'm old and slow, but have been driving and riding all of the local roads since the early 70s. 

Cheers!

Nope.  I'm the other kind of the species.  Why don't we start a school with female instructors in bikinies?  Think how many more riders there'll be!

i'm game if it pays well and i can wear sidis and helmet and gloves. :p   

welcome & congrats on the new monstah!

Embyr:  Love the color of your bike!!  Reminds me of the old Leyton House racing colors.  Sharp.

Made it to Malibu today!  Took the 10 (first time on the freeway) to PCH, to Stunt Cyn, to the top of Mulhulland Hwy.  I'm hooked!  Can't wait to do it again!

I'd like to post a pic.  Can someone tell me how?
