was invited to join some friends/friends of friends, up to hwy 33/lockwood today

http://twoslow.com/2013/12/dec-1-ojai/

Absolutely beautiful day



I remember the first time I rode with Privateer (Andy) was a ride up the 33! Ryan- Bacon junkie had bacon and maple bacon cupcakes and  bacon at the house before we all rode off.. Was cold that time and recall snow and some patchy black ice on the back side.

Ha, I remember that ride! I was the one that met you at Gelson's on Franklin before heading to Ryan's.

Actually, I think that was the last ride with Stu, Ryan, Robert (Orangelion03), and Miles (duc_poultry).

And those cupcakes were unbelievable!!

that route we took from moorpark to santa paula to ojai is what I tried to talk this group into, but they weren't hip on it.  so we slabbed it.  whatever, i'm more about hanging out with good folks than what % of my miles are twisty.

That's Right !!.. You had the green Duc... I dug that ride.

I got home and told the wife about those cupcakes... she's been making them regularly since.

Coincidentally, every year I ride to Laguna Seca for the GP (not for 2014 though boo) through that section.... taking the back way all the way up waytogo

Thank God for WSBK so i can still ride up and catch some racing

I'll have to look into the rental duc deal one of these days or just go test a bike at Newport.  I am seriously going crazy here.

for the problems of SoCal, the 300+ riding days/year make up for most of it.

well first ride for me, of the new year, I suppose.

Anyway, chalked up my first one, as is my custom.  I like heading out on the 1st, usually very few people out and about, but I chose a poor destination this time, I think.  Or at least a poor route.

I wanted to check out a new place (to me) out in the sticks.
