Who else has tomorrow off? Trying to decide where to ride. Malibu? 33 out of Ojai (though I'm sure the top of the mountain is still pretty cold)? Some Santa Ynez back country? Maybe the 1 out to Jalama for a Jalama burger? So many options

I do I Do !! ..... oh, ya I forgot

.... I will just be polishing my new 796 out in my barely above freezing Central lower MI garage .....

My Winter time clock has stood still.

I'll google earth your route and tag along in spirit. Enjoy a safe ride.

Just got back from a quick jaunt and in case anyone is wondering, the top of the 33 is NOT too cold at all. It's gorgeous up there right now. A little snow on the sides of the road and a couple rocks here and there but otherwise beautiful conditions. I LOVE THAT ROAD!

Ive got to freaking work. The job changed our presidents day off to MLK day a few years back.

Good thing i got in a good ride on my APE today while the Duc's apart for Powdercoating. Weather was killer today.

I'm having a hard time seeing the scale of the bike, can you post a picture of you sitting on it or riding? Do you drag knee?

yes i can drag knee on my APE.

Here is a pic for scale. I'm actually on the left riding my Monkey, my buddy is on the right riding my APE when it was a bit more of a stock APE.

Here is a ride from the APE that i shot. The other rider in front is on a KSR80 (kited 100cc two stroke) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6A70Ttr6BY

What time are you guys leaving? Depending on how the morning starts at the shop, I may be able to join you.
