The emperor has no clothes

We made it back safe and sound from our trip to Alcatraz. Had a great time and got to ride some roads I haven't been on before. We stayed in Atascadero the first night. Greg's sister lives there and his brother was visiting from Missouri . So they had a nice visit. Toured Alcatraz the second night. Did the tourist thing in Frisco and then went down Skyline Drive to Alice's Restaurant . That was awesome ! Missed the turn on to Hiway 9 and man o man Hiway 35 turned into a goat trail ! After about 10 miles we stopped and looked at the map and turned back. Found a short cut that took us to Los Gatos and then back to the 101. That was some cool riding, glad we did it. Cut across 152 to Fresno and saw a maroon & cream Tourer coming out of a farm road (anybody on here ?) Spent the night in Bakersfield and then back home the next morning. Had a great time ! I would post some pictures but I'm still not smart enough to figure it out :tickedoff:. Hope to make the ride planned for November.

Glad your home safe. Wayne, John, Carl and I did that road a few years ago. Your right there is some great riding in that area. A year later John and I stopped at Alice's for a look around. Some some great bike's and a really wild electric bike this guy built by hand.

Ride safe,
