In the Alabama Hills.

That doesn't even look real!
I know it is because I've been there, but…damn!!

Your pics really make me miss California.

The unreal part is that in my younger years I've been to the top of every peak and needle in this picture to the south of Whitney. Climbed the face of Keeler Needle, been up the mountaineer's route mid-winter and spent a night on the top of Whitney in the summer. The last time I was up there was literally 27 years ago.

But here's another "on location" shot. This one is from teh Tumble Inn on the Ridge Route above the Grapevine.

So speaking of Alabama Hills...

A few years ago we go do a three day ride around Death Valley and we trucked down and spent the night before departure camping in Alabama Hills

About a month later I'm watching Django Unchained

If you look closely you can see that even the fire ring we are using is the one from the movie.

This is a bike on location thread, so here is my 500EXC in the vicinity of Sand Mountain in NV...

Places like this is one of the few things I miss about not being in the US anymore.

Is the Ridge Route open any more? I thought it was closed.

I rode it once coming back from a rec.moto Joust when we visited Edwards.

Technically, no. It's got gates across it and you can go as far as the Tumble Inn from the north. Unless you have the right key.

The fake depth of field thing on the new iPhone 7 Plus works surprisingly well sometimes.

Hot Rods at the Beach in Santa Cruz.

The weather could not have been better for a mostly car and a few bikes show.




The Daytona is John's a Santa Cruz resident. We have been on a couple of vintage bike rides together. It was great to see him again.







Here is an interesting little tidbit. This is my bike but it ain't me. The dude posing there walked by at the show and recognized the bike. He purchased the bike new in 1983 and had it imported from Canada. He bought the personalized plate that is on it. It was pretty cool meeting him and getting his 20+ year ownership history on the bike. I bought it from the guy that bought it from him.

Thanks, Man!

Nice shot. iPhone 7 being water resistant is great for rain rides.

Petaluma, only a couple of blocks from downtown. I love weathered industrial warehouses with broken window panes - modern version of Dracula's castle.

Hwy 1, Jenner. A very dramatic spot; panoramic view with lots of slow moving things unfolding in the distance - surfs and sea sprays, low-flying birds, kayakers, beach combers...

Fun fact it has gotten taller since then

Hwy 1, south of Stewart Point.

Kruse Ranch Rd. Moist dirt, not dusty, not slippery - perfect.

Hauser Bridge Rd

Hwy 1, north of Jenner

One of my favorites, too, and you've captured it beautifully!
Thank you for always posting such fantastic photos

Doesn't it get a little squirrely with all those leaves

Here is a shot of my bike on top of the Manic-5 dam in Quebec, immediately following hundreds of miles of muddy Trans-Labrador Highway:
