Sounds like an awesome adventure, please keep up the posts! The more I see and hear about "the left coast", the more I want to visit. Enjoy and safe travels. "One’s destination is never a place, but rather a new way of looking at things". --Henry Miller-- |

At this point, I need to interject a little commentary... when riding the Big Sur area, do not pull over into a sh*tty gravel pull off... and pay no attention to the grade of the pull off... Especially if you have roughly 100 extra pounds of gear on the bike, are 5'4" and you are riding alone... However, being the creative problem solver I am, I did notice the rock face opposite the pull off had some nice sized talus at the bottom of it... Handy square rocks, even, that made up for the 5 inch deficit I had on my kickstand...

Hey, it dropped into the 70s yesterday... and 3 weeks ago we had almost a foot of snow here in the HIGH Desert. Her timing is excellent. FRIDAY PAAARTAY! You're gonna see it here first, on Danielle Hebert and Melanie Doerman's blogs too! |

Oh and Char MIGHT be allowed to see the all graphite chassis/motorcycle that Shawn is testing for Taylor. Totally awesome concept for MotoGP-2. Cool concept - note the radiator (invisible in photo) is behind and under the seat where the pressure is LOW. Intake is the "fish mouth" in front - ducted back through the chassis and integral fuel tank. Cooling air ducts enter the sides. 'Tis a work in progress.
