Tuesday 8th looks promising, Mike Frane may come too with his HP2Enduro. I'll be on the Megamoto, after taking it up for a breakfast run the other day I realize it is really the bike I love, the HP2S is more beautiful, glamorous, gorgeous, collectable, sleek, sexy, but the Megamoto is just so much more fun to ride for me.

Weather is looking cold, rainy and windy through Wednesday the 9th with snow levels as low as 4000 ft. Yuk!
Warms up after Wednesday winds by nearly 10degs on Thursday the 10th. Maybe some lower elevation runs are in order. ACH has some altitude. Perhaps an Ojai run? Or Anza-Borego? Or even Ortega. Anyways, my vote is Thursday the 10th after the weather breaks warm. No need to be riding damp roads when the nights are getting below freezing. JT |

^ Macfly, were you up at Newcomb's last Sunday around 10:30 with other BMW moto riding buddies? I rode my HP2S but it was parked at the other end up by the tree.
Agreed, say no to black iced roads

Last Saturday about 3pm the Crest was fab. Did the loop from Acton up 9-mile and over 2 to Pine Canyon and home. Totally fab. New tarmac and paint, freshly cleaned and prepped for the Sunday crowd. Hardly a soul up there, felt like I had it all to myself.
Nice.

If I remember right Lower Tujunga is repaved as well.
Pine Canyon isn't but still the best set of turns on the loop.

Just been advised that Thursday the 10th is out for me (child's dr appt). I am free Veterans day (Friday the 11th) which would give one more day for the weather to warm and the roads to dry out.
Anyone for a Friday the 11th ride? ACH, GMR, Ojai, Ortega? I'm open! |

Well I didn't have time to ride the entire mountain but wow was it nice up there! It got a little dirty just past Shortcut Saddle but it was very manageable. A nice bday present to myself.

We were up on the Crest and it may have been one of the nicest riding days of the year. Started up at 10:30am, rode the face, crossed over to the AGH via lbt, and then to Aliso Canyon into Acton. On the way back we rode Nine Mile over to the 2......not a single car, anywhere. Winter is being felt though.
Blissful, |
