It is currently fantastic in the Peninsula. The area is crisp and clear, there is nothing on the roads (save for where the construction was on 84), and hardly any traffic. Temp, everything, just perfect.
If you haven't escaped lately, I would go do it today. I have never seen it so nice out.

You're the devil.
But yes, you are correct that the weather is fantastic.

Perfect moon last night on HWY 17 @ 11pm. Had it to myself on my 900cr until that black Monster caught me in Scotts Valley. Nice ride.

I'm sitting in my cube in San Mateo, a badly undersprung FZ1 sitting outside tempting me with dreams of wobbly corner exits and rear wheel slides. If it wasn't for that topcase full of work to do, I'd head up 92
right now

I got a quick little 20 mile lunch ride in with my coworker - to and from Chipotle. Nasty accident on 101 S @ Embarcadero blocking at least 1 lane.

Did you get a ride finally MrI?
Presentation tomorrow, flying away Thursday to AZ, Hong Kong, China... Missing Indian Summer.
Adulthood sucks.
Road real fast to work 1.5 mile
then to lunch. 7 mile
Can't wait for tonight
Maybe I won't go right home.

If I weren't in San Diego working, and if MrI hadn't stolen my bike, I'd go.

I was out and about on Alhambra Valley/Rezliez Valley/P-Hill Rd, back to Alhambra Valley, then Bear Creek to SP Dam Rd. on home...it truly was a gorgeous day to be out on two wheels. Days like this are good reminders of why we deal with the retarded cost of living and politics here in the bay area.

I road about 70 Miles then went on a nice 6 mile hike to the top of Mission Peak. It was a great day.
Here is a panoramic picture I took up there.
