Default You Gotta Love Southern California ( SoCal )...

For the weather...

We had a stormy and wet week and today, HOT, HOT HOT... boy I didn't want to stop riding today.

Couldn't wait for the weather to clear up this week and kept seeing the forecast saying it was going to be clear and about 80 or so.....

And BAM!!!

90+ today from the coast to the mountains ( I picked up a sweetie in Long Beach this morning and ended up in Altadena at the top where houses end and farms begin and then lunch in Old Town Pasadena )...

We are Blessed and lucky to have it so good.... guess that's why the rent is so high, hmm?

Taking my riding partner (Wife) out to Hutchins HD in Yucca Vally tomorrow early. Having breakfast at the little diner there. Then we'll take Hwy 247 towards Victorville and catch Hwy 18 (the back side) up to Big Bear and come home after a ride around the lake.
Yes, Southern California.....screw it, let's ride all year. We're lucky

Cali is ok once you get away from the cities. No sense going into how screwed up the state is financially. You guys are very well aware of all that.

Pop on over to AZ so you take those funky helmet things off for a while.
