You could get up in the morning, take Bouquet Cyn to Spunky Cyn over to lake Hughs rd, wind around up to Frazier Park and down thru Ojai, and back to your house and not touch a lick of LA traffic. I've done different variations of this and other routes around us and seen as few as two or three cars ...I operate a motorcyle everyday in traffic. On the weekends, I get to RIDE my motorcyles on some great roads around here.

One other thing, Where we live, Every single motorcycle accident that I've seen as been the fault of the Motorcylist. Lots of very poorly or non trained people crashing.


Great Looking 900SS. I would love one of those parked next to my Paul Smart.

+1 on the SOCAL roads. I take my bike on Mulholland and adjacent canyons as a way to get out of the city, also PCH, and then to Ojay via Hwy 150, Santa Barbaba to Hwy 192, or Hwy 33 to Frazier Park, etc...
We are also blessed with the best riding weather so I love putting miles on my Beemer.
Interestingly enough the same roads I mentioned work extremely well in a Carrera... Just sayin'
