The temp was mid 80s once inland, no cloud and no wind.
i have to say the Harleys make a lot of sense out here. Speeding is frowned upon so 70 is a fair max.
No pictures 'til I am back, however.
A quick tour of Yosemite tomorrow and off to Carmel on Tuesday.

Sounds like you're having fun look forward to hearing about it all when you get back  _________________

nothing like a rolling road block to liven up the day
considering we done some major roads at the most busy times of day, we didnt do too badly.. a couple of rolling road blocks and having to slow a few tailgaters down away from the group but was a nice ride  _________________ Its all Google maps fault!

Well played!
Went to Mont St Michel while I was in France, a guy in one of the shops there was trying to sell me a sword. He seemed to think it'd be a good idea to strap it to the side of my bike for an quick-draw solution to just those sort of circumstances...  |

Going to work for an Investment Bank in Docklands. Really I am
I know that sounds crazy with all the news etc, but it's not an American one. Hopefully it'll be ok. |

Fitted new rear indicator on Lil Hornet...all by myself!
Can tell Tippetts to fuck off now...
Leaving it the whole day to change it they said...tut, tut. Took me 40mins max, even though I'd never done it before, had to take off tail light, fairing, side panels, grab bar... to reach these bleeming wires! _________________
