That bike is surreal. I was looking for somebody in a Roger Rabbit outfit or Jim Carey from Mask.

Get your "Motor Running Head", out on the highway!

What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men

Pullover up to Mt Hamilton.  Usually this time of year everything should be golden brown.  This route is equally winding as it is beautiful and it is extremely beautiful. Hard to believe it borders San Jose.  The road up had some rough spots that you had to watch out for while trying to time your curves. They weren't pot holes but where the road had sunk in. Pot holes are usually broken blacktop, these were like the bottom washed out and the surface stretched into the hole without breaking.  This camoflauged the hazards at times.  (Just making an excuse as to why I crossed over the center line! Shutup JC!)

It was a great day!  I've done the Livermore to San Jose over Mt Hamilton 3 other times but never from San Jose to Livermore.  I recommend to anybody who likes adventure and beauty.  You've got to be prepared for wildlife and other riders but it is well worth the ride. Close to home for me.

I'm used to riding alone and it's been great to ride with JC and Terrie.  The are both extremely competent riders and I'm stoked whenever I ride with them.

Soozie,

Carole will be working and won't be attending.  I'm really pushing myself to attend.  There's a great group of people attending and I've only met a small amount in person.

Great pics all! Thanks for sharing. It's been a couple of years since we've ridden up to the Observatory...but it is a gorgeous view! :2vrolijk_21:
