Mount Tamalpais is the highest peak in the Marin Hills, which are part of the Northern California Coast Ranges. The elevation at the East Peak, its second highest point, is 2,572 feet (784 m). The West Peak, the mountain's highest peak where a radar dome currently stands, is 2,574 feet (785 m). It stood over 2,600 feet (792 m) before the summit was flattened for the radar dome construction. The mountain is clearly visible from the city of San Francisco and the East Bay region.

Off to Pebble Beach, CA



erniezap & Kimberly were able to get us on 17 Mile Drive…a real privilege…scooters are NOT ALLOWED HERE!  I was blessed to have this opportunity.

The 17 Mile Drive is a scenic road through Pacific Grove and Pebble Beach, California, United States, much of which hugs the Pacific coastline and passes famous golf courses and mansions. It also serves as the main road through the gated community of Pebble Beach. Like the community, the majority of 17-Mile Drive is owned and operated by the Pebble Beach Corporation.

Thank you so much…





















































Looks like this deer is playing through…



Some nice homes…

Now on to Big Sur…

Bixby Creek Bridge is a reinforced concrete open-spandrel arch bridge in Big Sur, California. It is located 120 miles (190 km) south of San Francisco and 13 miles (21 km) south of Carmel in Monterey County along California Highway One.

Bixby Creek Bridge is important historically because it introduced automobile travel to Big Sur, connecting the remote coastal towns to each other.  Simply awesome!

From here it was time to take our steel ponies to The Post Ranch Inn for lunch.  Remember me new friend Miles from Monterey?  Well this is his place and what a place it is.

Nestled on the cliffs of Big Sur, California, Post Ranch Inn provides the ultimate accommodations for a romantic getaway for a price.

Great pictures Jock!  Thanks for sharing.  Wonderful to meet and ride with you.  I'm sure the whole CA contingent wishes you a speedy return to CA!  Looking forward to the rest of your "report."

After a couple of great days in the Bay Area it was off to JCZ’s neck of the woods!!  But before I would make this journey it was time to meet the MAN that turned me on to Hawg Wired Tunes….hd-dude!

It would be there that I purchased some Schampa under clothing.  I had some Under Armor but this is better and I should have listened a long time ago from the NorCal Krewe.









Meet the MAN…hd-dude…A pleasure to meet you my friend and thanks for the help.







Some bikes at the shop…
