Riding 5 hours on the slab in order to park on the street for a couple hours doesn't make much sense to me, especially riding a 999R. I think it makes fantastic sense to trailer the bike to the closest parking lot and drop the bike there. Put on maybe one mile total on the odo? It I were going to hang out at Santana I think it would be even more fun to head down there earlier in the day and do some riding up hgwy 9 to Alices and then head over to Santana later. We can still drop the bikes close to Santana and be happy about not doing 5 hours of slab time on the bike.
We will talk about it in a few months, lol.
