Default Little road trip.

I've been lurking here for months, if not years. I finally decided to register and put up a post. Here is a few little shots from Northern California the other day. Enjoy



Lake Berryessa Dam



A shot taken from off the road on the way between Sonoma and Bodega Bay!



Another photo on the way to Bodega Bay!



Bodega Bay on a somewhat dreary day.



Overlooking Stinson Beach on the way back home!



Looking back at Stinson, and to the right is Mt. Tamalpais.

These were taken during a short ride with a friend of mine 330 miles of some really really twisty coastal roads!

Very nice pics, welcome to the site!

Custom is, new members put a few regulars up for a week or so to sample the local roads for future ride-outs.

When can I come over?

The invitation is open, I think I can house 5-6 of ya at a time, the little woman can cook a mean LARGE meal as well, I hope all you like Caribbean food! I'm afraid I only have 3 bikes to ride at a time so first come first serve.

Seriously though there is a fairly large group of us out here that follow sv650.org

Hi and welcome.

I am so glad I don't live where you do. The scenery is horrible and as for those twisty roads.

Yes, I can very much believe it. Give me nice straight predictable boring roads anytime of the day.

I'm just amazed there are interesting roads over there. All the ones I saw were longer sweeping bends, rather than tighter technical stuff.

Very nice

I must admit, those roads look like fun. I tend to think of America as being all long, boring, flat roads full of Harley's doing 50mph

Over here on the West coast there seems to be a fair share of twisties upon twisties....But the freeways are 5-6 lane auto wrecking derbys, so most of us with half a brain go searching for the back road twisties rather than roll the dice and chance being taken out by the minivan moms chatting on cellphones.
