Took a little ride today

Lets see if a picture is worth a 1000 words...'cause I'm too tired to give the play by play

No wonder it looks like home.

Yeah, it's been a hot mofo out here the last couple of days, 102º yesterday. I've sissied out and turned on the A/C the last 2 days.

Yep, that's about the nicest section of road I've ever had the pleasure of riding! The picture doesn't really show the elevation change though.

Re: Took a little ride today

I was ready to accuse you of , especially on that second pic, until I looked at the date of the post. However, there IS the issue of the "floating hand" in pic #3... Whatever, that road in pic #2 looks like the tits!!

Ya, these pics were taken a couple of weeks before the SS1000, which just happened to follow part of the same roads. The "floating hand" were some gawking tourists who wouldnt get out of my shot.
