Summer 09 SF Coast Ride – Report

That was fun!

DAY 1
The first day was pretty tough since I woke up about 3:30am to drive up the coast with the bike on the trailer.  Arrived in Watsonville, checked in, and met up with four others that wanted to go down to Big Sur.

Once in Big Sur, we waited to for the rest of the gang coming from the LA area to ride past us.  Shook hands, filled up with gas, and a big group of 12+ SportClassics roared up the California coastline to Santa Cruz.  We parked our bikes right at the boardwalk and had a few drinks at the bar and had dinner. It was absolutely great to put a face to the names!

DAY 2
Woke up early and rested.  Headed back to Santa Cruz for a huge group phot0.

We then split up into two groups.  Group A went on a loop around the Redwood forest to world famous Alice’s Restaurant on Skyline Hwy.  We then continued the drinking at the Santa Cruz boardwalk. Group B went to Fort Bragg in the north, spent the night, and came back the next day.

DAY 3
I packed up the trailer, loaded the bike and went home.

It was a great time had by all.  Hope to see them all again.
