As the roads started opening up, I took the K100RS through the Santa Monica Mountains to look at some of the damage from the Woolsey Fire.  Our home was 100 yards on the other side of an evacuation line, so we didn't have to leave, but our house was filled for a time with people who did.

It is amazing to see that in many places the fire would march up to a home's property line and stop.  Of course many others weren't so lucky.

Today was the first gathering of a new group here called the San Jose Clasicos.  The term clasico is very broadly defined so new/old retro style bikes are allowed to be included.  Even so more bikes than I expected turned including another K! A 1985 K100, also a nice Ural, a 1992 R100GS and a 1982 R65 with a rig.  No unique loopless Ks but a couple of other caffed bikes were on show.

Lake Champlain Loop
« Reply #762 on: July 07, 2019, 07:07:23 PM »
We rode two-up on a loop from Waterbury, Vermont to Lake Champlain this morning. We had pleasant breakfast at The Bridge restaurant in Addison, VT then crossed into New York over the Crown Point Bridge. After traveling north on Rt 22 through Port Henry and Westport, we turned toward Essex. At Essex we boarded Lake Champlain Transportation ferry M/V Governor George D. Aiken to Charlotte, VT and rolled back home.

My feculent moto ran swiftly and smoothly as usual. Not a single dim-witted remark concerning its appearance was encountered; however, when somebody asked what we were riding I answered, a cropduster.  Two discussions then ensued—one was about the benefits of taking the MSF course and watching 50 hours of motorcycle accidents on YouTube prior to making a decision to buy a moto. The other was about manual lymph drainage being an effective treatment modality for certain chronic conditions and certain severe injuries. That one was out of my scope of experience, except for my having lymph nodes. I don't think anybody disputed the idea that it's better to learn from the errors of others rather than commit those errors yourself, especially when injury and recuperation are involved. Accord was reached within a world of discord. :giggles

The day has been sunny, breezy, entertaining and refreshing.



The ferry powers away from the dock. Camels Hump is dead ahead, appearing in the distance between two closer hills across the lake.


Two PRVers in the breeze.

Today I borrowed my brother's bike for a ride in Montenegro's beautiful nature. Such great landscapes, such a beautiful country, and there are still a lot of things to discover.. It's the first time I'm visiting him since he bought a house here and it's even more amazing than he was telling me on the phone. Eh, maybe it's finally the right time and the right place to buy the villa I've been dreaming about for all my life considering the recent affordable house prices in Montenegro. I've been riding all day with these thoughts in my head, let's see what my wife will think about it.

Last Sunday I took part in the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride in San Jose COsta Rica with my wife.


The brick performed as well as ever and got more than one compliment.


This year I saw two other bricks there, both cafed out but nice.

yeah, that course is only a few miles from my house on an Army Post.  very convenient.  I try to get over there monthly, year round.  usually go at lunch so that if there is a class going on the lot will still be available while the students eat.

but then, i end up providing them entertainment....:-)
