HadesOmega Socal BDR ADV

[HadesOmega]

ADVENTURE ACCOMPLISHED got home at 1900 just as the sun went down. Nice to be home but not nice traffic =P Just rode 101 North all the way home. Stopped in Gilroy for gas. Stretched that Acerbis 6.6gallon tank to 246miles and it didn't even hit reserve yet. I bet this puppy can do 300 with the reserve! Tires look like they're good for a couple hundred more miles otherwise not adventurespec, chain is toast but held in there. What an adventure, will start updating posts with edits and pictures. Time to download all that video also.

Whew cleaned up most of my gear. Hah what a bitch weather is. I checked SR88 today and no restrictions. I guess it was just my luck and timing that I wasn't able to go that way. It's okay I had a fun ride home after clearing the pass.

Download 475gb of video working on uploading the rest of the pictures and downloading all the pictures onto my computer.

Update I've managed to finish up to Day 4 with the pictures and blog. Been shuffling the posts downward. Just need to finish the gap between Day 5-6 and I'll sorta be caught up till we get to the BDR!
