Just finished a weekend ride up the beautiful CA coast from San Luis Obispo to Monterrey. Made it a two day ride with lots of side roads. Weather wasn't the best but it was still excellent. This was my first long ride. Our next ride is through the Utah in Sept. We'll hit the Grand staircase, Zions, Bryce canyon...lots of cool windy roads.

I have only driven that road in a cage but it's still awsome. Does the road still get a lot of sand/debri? I remeber sections that were pretty interesting. So where are the pics?

You made it through, that's awesome. I did that ride when I lived out there. I drove up the coast from San Diego and was hoping to make it to San Francisco (well most of the way) using PCH. Unfortunately, just outside of San Luis Obispo the road was washed out because it was an El Nino year. Still hit Hurst Castle and the other tourist traps. I love that stretch of road.

Congrats on the good weekend.

Here ya go...Glad you got them loaded !! BB ;)...Sorry have to ask....so did ya eat(smoke) the HD...lol....

Boop - thanks for posting these for me! I've got to figure out how to do this!

I'll tell you what - the one bro-in-law has the 1300R, the other one has the Suzuki M109R, and friend has the HD. The HD and M109R are so freakin fast!! We're alot more comfortable and our bikes have all the power and speed that I could ever want and need. However, those two bikes take off and leave us in their dust. When they hit the higher RPMs, there's no catching them. Off the line I keep can keep up but those higher RPMs are where I watch them leave me. I've ridden both a couple of times and I would much prefer the VTX to them! The M109R is an 1800 cc.

Good times was had by all and we'll do it again! We're actually talking about riding in Germany next year!

Thanks again Boop!!!!:cheers:
