Beautiful ride up 101 to 128 to 1 then some fog and cool temps.
When we stopped at Giant Burger I thought to myself.. "Hey Body remember this cool"

Saturday
two wheel tramp hooked up with barf guest Crazy Cooter and did her Death March Ride. Wheel_Muse joined them for a while. I captured many of the bikes coming in. Had the pleasure of dealing with a bit of a loon for a bit. When I saw him hit the pool in a swimming cap and a speedo I had some big laughs. He graciously got jiggity when Mako showed on his 1000RR and starting spinning. Death March spin I suppose :laughing

A life long friend snapped a couple pics after my last stop which he called "The process".

Getting onto your bike to roll is a process for sure. Best to be a consumate zipper checker for sure.
Same stuff in the same pockets always. Everytime I gear up I note this stuff weighs a lot. Then you go and the weight disappears until... you take it off :laughing

Mrs. Budman always watches me gear up before I leave and says "How can you wear all that shit!"
Simple answer always "Dress for the ride".

After my Sunday Callahan-Gazelle loop I went to the Joss House temple nearby. Got a tour: it has amazing history, artifacts. and architecture.

Product Improvement Stop :laughing

Boats... :rofl

The tale of the agro cyber stick was a bit jaw dropping.

Good stuff Henry :thumbup
 
I am glad I stoped by Friday eve for a meal and a visit.
Nice talking with Steve as it had been a minute.
Awesome to see Lonny's Gamma back on the road (where it belongs).
He and I rode many miles together with that two stroke sound track perking folks up to come see what the heck is coming down the road.
Sadly the only pick I took was the drink menu at dinner...lol
