Gotta love it, gotta love that Silver two plugger Boxer.....
Thanks for the ride, I hope I didn't move too much in the passenger seat.

And I thought that BING, BING, was something coming from my engine. . .
(I know you know this ride very well Pat, wish you could still join in. . .)

DJ - Try to keep my beauty as clean as yours. . .but I have to be honest and say I've never done the disc holes.
This time of year, one can count of good weather for months.
I've added a few more pictures that might be of interest to you guys. One, I think, especially captures essence of the roads.
Another few are of the observatory. . .for those into Astronomy (as you may have noticed from my profile, another interest of mine).
I've also got one dup pic in there. . .cannot delete it thru Smug

Nice...

Ed,
Sorry I missed that ride.... Great pics... If you want to delete images you have to move them to the "to be deleted" gallery... At least you can get them out of your gallery...
Got any free Sundays coming up?

Great pics of a great ride. I was up in the Mts myself this weekend. Was hot in the lowlands & just beatiful up high.
Ride safe on those roads, they look like fun.

Del Puerto out to
Patterson is one of my
FAVS!
Have you done
Diablo Grade pkwy yet? Feels like your own private track and autobahn all in one. Makes me nervous though. I keep expecting to see red & blue lights setting a trap as they can see and hear ya comin' for miles!
Can't wait to take the new scoot out there soon!
