Santa Cruz or which way do I go? This is a short trip report of a ride I took last weekend to Santa cruz. I had different ideas of where wanted to go last Saturday. I have to say my biggest concern was just getting out of Dodge so to speak. I had wanted to go to Solvang but was to lazy to tell you the truth. Also I decided to sleep in Saturday so I did not leave until 10:00 :( So I followed my regular plan of crawling on to the freeway and seeing where I end up. [View Full Entry]

This is my trip report for my ride to Healdsburg. I went up for to meet my sister for breakfast .Took about three hours to get there. It was a good thing that I layered up for the ride as it was more than a little chilly. I had planned on going to Reno but it was calling for 45-50 degree weather.

I decided to go up to see my sister in Fort Bragg and I got the brillant idea from someone to try another way. The first one I started by going up I-5 to Williams and then crossing over on Highway 20 over Clear Lake and through Willits. From there its about 26 miles of all twistie roads to Fort Bragg. A true motorcyclists dream. Nothing but curves. :) The second I started with I-5 again then crossed over onto Highway 12. That road really sucked at times. It went Highway 29 then to Highway 128 from there on to [View Full Entry]
