I need to get some more miles under my belt and haven't hit Cerro and Ojai in ages. Weather looks good:  anyone up for a ride?

******
Ok Ride Plans:

8:00am:  Meet up at the Ranch-Side Cafe at the bottom of Little T.  Note:  there is NO GAS at this meet up point!  Please gas up a the status a couple miles before.

11355 Foothill Boulevard, Sylmar, CA 91342-6770

Departure:  8:30am

Roads to cover:
Little T
Sand Canyon
Vasquez
Bouquet
San Fancisquito
Lake Hughes

Three points then into Frazier.

Fro there, it's Cuddy, Cerro, 33 and home!

I haven't mapped the mileage on this in ages.  And I sure can't remember where breakfast was - so I hope someone else remembers!   Lol

Regardless, I'm limited to a range of 120 miles so gas stops will be somewhat frequent and fast!   Bigsmile

I'd say "Expect to get home late!"

 I have the kid this weekend, but I also have the R1150RT in the garage now. I'll see if he's up for this, and if so we'll be in. Took him out on the RT a couple weekends ago through the desert/Big Pines/Lone Pine/GMR, and he had fun so chances are good he'll be into it. I know Kris will be in.

 IIRC breakfast was half a bagel, a cup of coffee, & a smoke while gearing up the last time we did this. Lol

 Lunch was that Mexican place in Frazier Park. Thumbsup

 Dinner at Boccalli's is always good, but that could put you LoSoCal folks home really late.

Robert, I really want to go on this one as I haven't done the F400 in a very long time, plus I want to check out your Monster.

Unfortunately, this pesky desk job is not allowing me to committ.  I won't know until end of business today whether I have to come in this Saturday.  

I know exactly where that meeting spot is.  If things go my way here at work, I'll be there at 8AM on the VFR.

Here are a few pics from our ride today - just Lawn Dart, M.Brane, viffergyrl, and Zach-man (offspring of M.Brane), our photographer. I think Robert has a few to add as well.

The man, the myth, and survivor of Christine (with M.Brane)


The newest resident of the Lawn Dart Garage:


We didn't need this today....


I got to ride the Monster on Cerro 'NoArreste' - it was fun! Felt like my hands were right on top of the front tire -  Thumbsup Thanks Robert!


No problem sez Robert


Twisty goodness on Highway 33






The Monster eats....


A very nice ride but some familiar faces weren't able to make it. See you next time!

Great pics!  Nice action shots!

Had to work for six hours today.    

I'll make the next ride.  The Buell's got new tires and new fork fluid.  She's ready to rock on the next ride.

Beautiful Monster Robert.   Thumbsup

What a GREAT day of riding!  The roads were largely clear of dirt, absolutely minimal traffic, GREAT company and good times!  I'll get a few pix up soon enough.   Bigok

At the end of 370 miles I feel really good overall.  Right arm's a bit stiff but that's rather to be expected!
