Title: Good ride today with twin 86's
Post by: FJmonkey on August 09, 2009, 07:12:49 PM
Mike and I finally met and got a good ride in today. Angeles Crest, Big Tujunga, (14), Sand Canyon, Little Tujunga and back to the Angeles Crest, about 130 miles, mostly twisty. Here is Mike and his very clean, stock 86 with polished pipes. I have a lot of work to get mine that clean looking. Other SoCal riders are welcome to come for ride on the weekends.   :drinks:

Hey, Mark,

A good variation on that route that avoids the 14 is to go left off the Crest on the Angeles Forest Highway, and then use Soledad Canyon to get across to Sand Canyon. It cuts about 30 mi. off, but that's the freeway part anyway... :D

Cheers,

Mark,
Had I know my picture was being taken, I would have sucked that gut in.....or maybe I did.
Good times,
Mike

That was a quick shot with my BlackBerry, not the best resolution. I will bring a better camera to show off Mike's bike the next time we ride. I promise more pictures....Dammit! :blum1:
