Post 'em up!

I'm almost done writing out everything!

Eric, I got your photo's w/ Cafe du Soleil with the owner and your wife standing out front.

AND, the video of the stupid ass that was riding bicycles on Hwy 1 DID come out!!

Friday, riding up Big Sur with Randy (DucsRFun) and Scott (ugh, can't remember screen name).

Met up with Dan (DT996), RedPato, and Martin (Motowheels) at Oceano Hotel, and we were OFF to Alice's Restaurant! Lots of fog on the way up there, COLD, damp pavement....but eventualy the skies opened up!

Later on in the evening, Mike from Dan Kyle Racing came out, and was kind enough to help set up some of our suspension on the bikes.

Next day, going to Eric's friends cafe downtown San Francisco, we all met there. There could have NOT been more of a perfect cafe to meet up and chill at for a while!

The food was great! Coffee was great! Owner of the cafe was a perfect gentleman, and the ambiance could not have been better.

Was just taking a photo of the owner (Gustaf?) of the cafe when Eric (Mry999eryk) arrives with his wife on the Multi after having ridden with us on his 999 the day before. Gotta love having a Ducati Superbike and touring bike!

What you don't really see is that there were people walking around wearing costumes, and often times, CRAZY revelation (sometimes naked) stuff during the San Francisco Bay to Breakers run. I might have some pics that show a little in the back ground.

I know we got more pics going through downtown, but here's one.

We stop at Twin Peaks to look at the view. The pics don't do it justice, you can see across the entire San Francisco Bay.

The photo of all of us standing behind our bikes:

From the left, we have Martin (Motowheels), Dan (DT996), RedPato (sorry! Can't remember your first name! Sorry!), Benjamin (Spagnolo), Eric and his lovely wife (Mry999eryk), Quan (Quanto), and finally myself and my friend Michelle who met up with us.

More awesome pics from the Twin Peaks lookout.

Over the Golden Gate, we stop to snap a couple of pics.

Swingarm bolt backed out of the bolt axle, and my swingarm axle was trying to work it's way out! Could have been a really, really bad situation/crash. Luckily, the shift-shaft of my Vortex rear sets blocked it (you can see the wearing on the shaft). Not the stripped threads in the swingarm axle.

We stopped here, in the middle of Lucas Road (as in, George Lucas and nearing Skywalker Ranch). Just.........beautiful.

Dan (DT996) stretching his legs.
