So Cal at it again, riding on 1/26

[latony007]

Yo, I will probably leave around 8am from National City. If you want to meet up along the way, I'm cool with that. Just so you know, I'll be moving quick since I am interested in seeing how long it'll take me to arrive at Denny's. I suggest we gas up together and try to make the 150 mile trip on 1 tank. I may pack some tools in case any issues come up.

i thought you were going to say you were from Del Mar or maybe even encinitas. National City? DO NOT kill yourself trying to make it up here in 2 hours please, puts a damper on our ride LOL. You taking the 405 or 5? i assume not the 15. Google says 2 hrs 40 mins but i think thats with no traffic. i think you should be able to make it on one tank, there is a 76 right in front of the Dennys so we can all fill up before we take off.

if we would have made it next week you guys would get to see my bad *** new seats But since USPS is so slow it will probably be the monday after we ride. but here is a picture.

I saw the route, I'll probably hit up the 5 to 405 unless you know a better route. I assume the 2:30 hours is based off of a vehicle going 65. So, you can ball park at what my speed will have to be to make my 2hr goal. I'll try to keep it under a buck most of the way. I try not to have doubts, they cause hesitation which is valuable to me. I think Yoda said it best, “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”

lol, he is a great guy and will custom it any way you want. I actually had the front seat back already and it was def. more comfortable. My *** wasnt screaming at me after 2 hours. I sent it back because i was having a hard time getting the rear on with it so he paid for the shippign back to him and fixed that and tried to lower it for me as much as he could. Plus i had him do the rear as well. Cant wait to get them on. Maybe we could get lucky and the PO deliver on sat. but im not counting on it.

This is about 15 minutes past my house. assuming no traffic. About 4 exits after mine is the 101 north and about 8 exits from there to Topanga but they come up quick.

here is my vid of following my brothers Can Am down ACH if anyone is interested. Dont know why it gets wavy when the rpms are up, didnt do that first time i recorded in standard def. Anyway these babies really handle the twisties great. i have ridden it up and down a few times and they are a lot of fun, plus the fear factor is almost zero, but much faster than him lol.

Well I was gonna suggest meeting up off the 405 but I don't want to throw you off your goal. I was thinking of this starbucks since it's right off the freeway. 9025 Warner Ave, Fountain Valley, CA 92708. It's fine if you want to keep going though.

And btw add a +1 for me. I'm trying to get my dad to go. I'm not sure if he'll make it yet though.

Is it Sunday yet.... Man it's taking forever....

Nah, I'll just go on ahead. Not a coffee person, I already have enough energy as it is.
