    Why So Few Bikes?

    Yesterday in the afternoon, the boss sent me on a last-minute journey to Stockton. The route would be BB-580-205-5-4 and return, about 90 miles each way. Knowing traffic on those roads on Friday afternoons is super busy, the motorbike, the 'stich and the tank bag would be the fastest way to get...

    Splitting; CHP Said "Not Advisable"

    Yesterday, traffic on 92 was stop-and-go from 280 to 35 (and beyond). I started splitting mostly on the left, and occasionally on the right when there was no room on the left. All splits below a 10mph delta and within the lane. Everything was nice and smooth until I caught up with a CHP. The...

    AirMedCare, the Heli Insurance

    Over the last two months, I had two good conversations with Tammy Thayer, the local sales manager for AirMedCare. Tammy is super nice. Her contact information is at the bottom of the membership application form, and just in case anyone would like to reach her, it's 530.351.4042...

    This happened today, 10/1, around 11am, northbound on Highway 121 about 1.5 miles south of Posers. Just checking if the rider got it all sorted out. He's in his 20s, 6-3, 190lbs, blond, good manners, and rides a light green or yellow Kawasaki. Does anybody know him? Thanks.

    Not RIP; Analysis of fatality on Skyline

    Trying to learn from yesterday's fatality on Skyline, given that segment of road (10500 block of Skyline Blvd, Oakland) is very popular, road and viz conditions were very good, and the rider very experienced. Does anyone catch which "dirt parking area" the minivan emerged from? (Mods, if this...

    PSA: N00b/Mellow Riders, You Must Yield!

    Tis the season ... and it happened thrice today, the first SB on 35, the second EB on 84, then minutes later again NB on 35. Set aside that I insist in turning public roads into my private race tracks, and that letting people overtake costs serious negative championship points at the end of the...

    Incident at Pescadero Beach North

    What happened there? CHP and paramedics were tending to somebody on the ground and/or on a stretcher. About half dozen of so motorbikers lending a hand and surrounding the person being helped. It didn't seem it was a crash, and interesting, all this was happening where the park's driveway meets...

    Who Makes Embroidery Patches?

    Amended with Update: The jacket itself is moving along at Johnson's. They should be calling any day now to go check colours and final drawings before cutting and sewing. Kim's Kustoms is fixing an awesome patch. (I did speak with Doc, and he was also very helpful and equally jolly good guy...

    Crashed Bike While Selling/Buying. Who's On The Hook?

    This is a true story, merely hours old, and it'd best to keep it free of names for liability purposes. Seller is selling a 150cc pit bike, not registered to seller's name, but to the very original owner. Pit bike has had many owners. Pit bike doesn't have insurance or current tags. Seller...

    SF to Elk. What to See?

    Wifey and I are off to an one-night in Elk. Leaving tomorrow morning, returning Sunday mid-afternoon. The plan is 101-128 out, and 1 on the return home. Breakfast at Queenie's for sure. Any rather unknown and cool places worth a stop and/or detour? We'll have comfortable walking shoes handy...

    Straight Pipe Riders, How Do You Do It?

    The trusted 954 is getting some personal touches, and yesterday it required a one-off ride without the exhaust baffles just 30 miles from BRG in Pacheco back home in the City. Holy mother of everything FUBAR on this and in the next world, it is so obnoxiously loud, even with earplugs folded and...

    Places Accessible By Moto Only (Or Almost)

    A meme circulated saying track is to street riding as filet mignon is to Spam. A bit condescending IMO, and besides, what's wrong with Spam? :laughing I replied with a "no", that people should enjoy motorcycling in their own ways, and made a wild ass statement that some places (in the world)...

    Any Local Fabricators?

    Howdy. I'm looking for somebody to fabricate a stainless steel 4:1 collector. Some BARFers already gave some good leads, but I cannot get them to return a call and much less start the project. So I'm looking for either a BARFer that personally fabricates motorbike stuff, or that just finished...

    Summit, Highland, Loma Pietra

    Howdy. Google street view isn't available between Soquel San Jose Rd and Pole Line. What's that stretch like? Single-lane? Busy? Bumpy? Goaty? Pavement? Park fee? Thanks. I'm going to Seaside tomorrow, leaving SF by 9am, ETA 12-ish, if anyone is interested in tagging alone.
