The SP airport open house is a lot of fun. Great planes, cool cars and bikes, really nice people. Though it's less than a mile from my house, I wont be going this month.

Good time Fo' Sho'!

did around 400 miles worth of riding ( up PCH from Sa Mo to Malibu Cyn... to 101... to 23...150 then 33 )

Yet another ride thru the twisties of the 'bu to the freeway (101)...

Had some fun on the 23... the 150 and the good 'ol 33 again

Can't beat this weather !!

Just got home from Santa Barbara. Took the 192 -> 150.

We got stopped by the

right by the Villanova school before getting to the 150/33 split. They had the whole road closed.

Apparently, there was a large fatality motorcycle/vehicle accident.

Two onlookers told us that at least two riders were

and possibly more. I asked what kind of bikes they were, cruisers/choppers/sportbikes and the said they couldn't tell. They were way too messed up.

So we took a few different side roads, backtracked, and finally made it back to the 150 east of the 33.

If anybody has info, or hears of anything, please post it up?

If Saturday was any indicator.... TONS of "Wild Hogs" types rolling in mobs thru the 150 and 33 ( there were also a few groups of serious touring clubs... includning a group from Santa Cruz on a 3 day bender

(guy we spoke to was on A Beemer S1k with bags).

I also noticed a gross lack of safety gear, a lack of skill on the part of more that 1 rider and an abundance of tough-guy scowls....

Hoping it wasn't as bad as the

first stated... "Cuz it draws unnecessary attention to ALL riders when that stuff happens

The Bacon Junkie · April 17, 2011, 07:13:54 PM

ugh...

I didn't talk to the

... he just had us turn onto a side street. I stopped a couple who were walking along the bike path. They gave us the story.

Ya, we get a bad rap sometimes... the whole "One bad apple..." theory. $:-\$

I'm not going to tell you about the bullsh!t ticket I got on Friday, because I don't want to get the thread locked because of "Cop Talk."

lawbreaker · April 17, 2011, 07:28:00 PM

I may not be a

.... but I did stay at a Holiday Inn once

-You can tell me about it over a good cup of coffee and a kick-ass b-fast composed primarily of

aka : Let's ride again !

The Bacon Junkie · April 17, 2011, 07:29:16 PM
