You can see the rest of the pictures here: http://gallery.me.com/antarius#10001...or=black&sel=0

Mods, please move this to the correct place if I posted this in the wrong spot.
If you're ever in Healdsburg at breakfast time, check out Fitch Mountain Eddie's at the north end of town. One of the best breakfast places ever, with awesome home-made hot sauce and the best, lightest waffles ever!

I'm in santa rosa, so no matter where we ride, all roads lead to the lake. and I'm just close enough, that after a long day and a couple of end of the ride beers, I can just get home before I gotta pee. I haven't been out to the coast in a while, it seems they got stewerts pt store open again? it was a bummer while it was closed.

Yeah that's pretty much what seems to happen with us also... that part of the county is just too nice to miss. Yes, Stewarts Point is back open, thankfully.

Also, I posted more pics at the top of the thread.... and thanks for all the compliments.

Thanks for the memories. I've ridden that same route years ago. Great shots, and much appreciated. Take care of the little lady. She's a keeper!

Congrats on the new ride, good too see some Sonoma County riders posting on here. The wife and I ride Lake Sonoma, Skaggs,Berryessa and of course the coast as it is our backyard (live in Windsor). We just rode/spent the weekend in Reno checking out the spring Street Vibrations, nothing compared to the Sept. addition in Reno.
If you see us at one of the stops you mentioned say "hey" we hit'em all.
