I pulled out of Alice's at about 5:05 or so and was making my way to the coast. Hadn't been on 84 in a while and was enjoying the ride out to 1 when I happened across a rider heading east just before you hit that little town. I can never remember the name of it, but I think you guys know which...

To the gentleman on the Blue BMW that was on 280 North at about 5:00 this evening... First, great bike, man. As time goes on I am developing an appreciation for the brand. I don't know a lot about them, but I believe this one was a 1200RT. Anyway, I just wanted to say that it was nice riding...

I was coming from 1 and came across an incident on Pescadero right by Horse camp. I couldn't really make out the bikes because of all the emergency vehicles, but it looked like at least 2 standard/cruiser type bikes. One rider was sanding by while they worked on the fallen rider. It looked...

Hey everybody - I didn't qiute know where to put this so I figured I would place it here. Mods, feel free to move it to another place if you want. Just a heads-up; I just got off the Skyline run a little while ago; you know, the one where you cruise through Saratoga and take the nice twisty...
