ABioBikers West - 1st Ride to Alice's Restaurant

By -

Well, the first ABioBikers West Ride to Alice's didn't go exactly as planned. We ended up at Alice's, but unfortunately our ride was a rental Camry. Don't ask. Scott, myself and Meredith (a totally awesome chic and forensic customer) drove up on Thursday, Jan. 29th and hung out with the bikers. It was a gorgeous day. The place was packed with the leather and tattoos folks eating some pretty bad food. But that's not why you go. It was quite nice in spite of the 4-wheels up and back. Thanks, Scott! Better luck with the next planned ride.

If you try real hard, I bet you can still wheelie in a Camry!

I didn't try that with a pregnant woman in the back seat. But I can tell you that on my way back from the East Bay a couple nights later, I was riding the curves pretty hard through the mountains. It was awesome! There are such nice riding roads in SF.

Thanks for posting Lisa! I've been so busy with the new toy at work I forgot to check. Today was better; two bikes & ride video.

I wanted to thank Lisa Davis for inviting me to join ABioBikers...I didn't even know this blog existed until I saw her at work last week in Foster City. For those of you that don't me, I've been riding for 19 years, sportbikes the entire time. Raced with the AFM in Northern California for five years, and since have done a number of track days and many, many rides around California. With all our weather in 2006, I haven't ridden much yet this year (instead, I've been squeaking in bicycle rides between rain storms), and my 2001 CBR needs to get in for an interval service (32,000 miles!), a new chain and tires, and a Penske shock rebuild, but I will have it on the road very soon and will be posting reports and photos from rides. BTW, I am also a track photographer for Laguna Seca and Infineon Raceways, so I will be posting links to photos from events here if you're interested in seeing them. Be seeing you soon (on the road, I hope)! Here is a link to my current Spo

Possible last ride of the Season?

Doug, I, and Matthew Powell made it out this weekend. We met on the BRP and then wended our way to Kentucky. We departed at 7am Sunday and the temp was 31-37 (depending on where you were). We climbed a hill into the Sun and the temp rose to 55 in the course of about 5 minutes. I was "macho" and went without the heated jacket and the Sun was great. Then, we decended into the valley again and it dropped below 40! This put a chill in me that I could not shake without stopping for coffee. Note to self: "You haveheat: use it!". On a back road, this 18 wheeler flat bed shot out in front of us and was just tearing up the road. He was doing 25-30 in the corners and hitting mid 60s in the straights. If a guy can drive a truck like this dude,there's no excuse for a car not being able to go the speed limit! When the truck got to a stop sign, he waved us by. He was a great guy, and I was kind of sad because it was an experience following a truck that could move l
