A hint of spring: Friday a rain storm cleared the road salt/de-icer from the roads, and today it hit 60 - - received some MUCH needed wind therapy ....

Excellent, glad some of you fellas are finally getting to get back out there. Tomorrow looks promising, planning on laying down about 300 miles myself. Where to I have not a clue. I'll know when I get there.

Hit the coast and meet up with some friends RVing in Moss Landing (north of Monterey, south of Santa Cruz) Had on shorts under some over the pants riding pants and a jacket. Got there peeled everything off and went kayaking in the nearby waterways. Lots of seals, otters and birds. 75-78 deg's. Finished with a fish & chips meal and a beer.. While its nice to enjoy this weather, (no rain) worry is were headed towards another drought if this unseasonable weather keeps up...

What a difference a year makes......


This was one year ago today. I brought the bike home for the first time, and rode 250 miles.



This was today, along the same stretch of road.

I'd say we have at least 15" in our yard. It's supposed to hit 40 for a few days, rain, then get cold again. Things could get ugly.

This years wind therapy is going to be delayed a bit longer than I'd like.
