Yup I lane split when I head to work and back, but some guys are far more aggressive than is either required or safe.  My understanding is the law was put into affect because of the traffic and heat, it's not so bad in the bay area, but in the LA area the drivers are just not very accommodating.

I "had to" in Fresno but I just don't trust the cage drivers. Law of gross tonnage takes over!

We had a free day in Monterey. My wife and I went off on our own. I had hoped to meet up with some area members of the board and get the inside on what to do and where to go. "In town" didn't pay off so we just got some brochures and maps and headed out. First stop was the wharf. There were several beggars in the parking area which was pretty sad, but once out on the pier it was wonderful!. There was any kind of food that you could want and the view was spectacular.

Fog headed out.

We ate at Rappa's for lunch. The wife liked the pier so much we came back and ate at Isabella's for supper. I'll reserve a couple of spots for pictures of that when I download her phone.

While we were in Monterey, we all took a trip to the coin laundry. One of the group found a way to avoid paying for the dryer. His wife was not amused but was a better sport that mine would have been!! I have better pictures but I'm not putting faces to this one!

Took the trip to cannery row but did not do the aquarium. I hear that was great but we wanted to cover some ground.

Had to put up a picture of my two pretty girls that were with me.

The coast between Monterey and Carmel was beautiful. We would stop and just take it all in for a few minutes and then move on. If we had our way this trip would have lasted a month!

Stumbled on this shot on the way up from a stroll on the rocks.

Ok local guys what the heck is this? Looks like something from a science fiction movie,

As I found out prior to the trip, We motorcyclist are not welcome on the Pebble Beach 17 mile. Us heathins did get a shot of what I think is the Pebble Beach golf course where they do the high end car shows.
This shot was from the beach at Carmel by the sea. We did not do the high end shops here.
Why is every stop sign on an incline in California??

Due to the camera being fubar most of our pictures here were unusable. With the cell phone dead this is all I have left at Carmel. It was beautiful and the closest to the kind of beach we have on the outer banks.
I will be getting some pictures from others on the trip. I'll see if I can find a way to add them to what I have here. I'm a lot of things but photographer is not one of them!

We loved the coast so well we decided to head back that way. Well at least after we got side tracked in a residential neighbourhood. Real men never get lost!
