This captures the vibe of the northbay backroads nicely.

New tire ride up Mt Hamilton. Fresh/clean asphalt and new lane striping - it felt like a brand new supermoto track.
Half way up I realized the lane markings weren't completed yet, then this truck came along and showed me how it's done.
Seconds-old double yellow. They can paint very accurately - first they did the dash line to mark the center line location, and after they painted the double yellow you could still see the dash line in between the two solid lines.

Still rocking it Gary.
I had to stop looking because I am working 7 days a week and so frustrated I can’t go ride.
Employees coming back next week and riding soon hopefully.

Working from home without weeks-long business trips nor vacations means I've had a lot more time to ride...
Mt Hamilton Rd yesterday. I thought the pavement would be great but not quite. They scattered what I think are glass reflective beads (for paint) all over the road so it's a little slippery at high lean angle.

Tunitas Creek Rd - foggy
Kings Mountain Rd - sunny
Skyline (between Tunitas/Kings and 84) - foggy and dripping wet. I think this is where the Harley guys didn't want the demo ride to go thru.

Mr. Dual Sport Rider
I thought this thread was about photos of your bike on location.
Way to go scoring a test ride on one. You gonna add one to your stable now?

Back in Verde Valley
Had to visit for a few weeks, finally finished with the roundabouts they started back in '08 on Az. 260.
Wanted to see what is new, or OOB, this valley is in contention for my feeble old man years, when the wheels fall off.
This valley has a full time river, that man has relied on to live, for a very long time. I don't feel like a newcomer, but in a long line of past humans.
Tizzigoot, (crooked water) ancient condos,
I would need my TW to get up this rocky slog, but I'm on Sycamore Canyon Rd.
the trailhead for this wilderness area is a few miles more.
And Clarkdale, this a pix of it all, retired power plant for the copper smelters, mined in up the hill in Jerome.
5G contrails, over a skin of high altitude cloudy whisps, and the Verde River.

Before they opened this morning
See the spec of a car down the hill just in front of my headlight. It will show up again in a moment.
Lick observatory is still closed to the public. Looking out toward the coast.
Here's the Mustang. Easy restoration.
Heading back to The Junction on SAV Road.
