Riding here in the SF Bay area is a blast. there are so many bikes here.
I rode up to The Wall today to catch the sunset and check out bikes.
There was a guy with a MVBrutale... cool bike... it sounds really wicked. He has been racing bikes all his life and has lots of stories about the old hondas. I think its cool that my bike draws lots of interest just like the ducatis and all. He also has this talent of being able to spot anything that might be wrong with a bike... He will glance over at my bike and immediately comment on the missing 10mm bolt on the chain cover. Huh? how did he catch that?
Today at the Wall there was an Old BMW, 5 Motards (they are really popular here), the BRutale, a 999s Duc, a dl1000, an f4 and a ktm 950 duke, and an R1.. I don;t see many harleys there, though. MEt a cb350 there last week... He told me about easter morning outlaw run that goes up MT Tamalpais in MArin county at around 3am the saturday before easter. 700 bikes catching the sunrise, then disbursing... he says there are lots of vintage bikes. If I can wake up that early I think I will go along.
Anyway, this seems to be bike heaven out here... they say it is the most bike friendly place to live.
Whoever "they" are, anyway.
