California Dreamin'
« on: December 14, 2014, 11:32:57 PM »
..... riding between the storms. I had an itch to ride and took the scooter out to scout out the conditions of one of my favorite local back roads, and it was awesome!

Here's a snippet of what California beauty has to offer :)

This first shot is on the hill side over looking the city of San Jose. Just beyond the far mountain range is Santa Cruz County, and Pacific Ocean

Stiff competition for Stig.

Very nice shots Manimal. Perhaps we can set up a "shoot out" for all you camera slinger's.

The "Shoot out at the Kymco Corral!"

How do you guys keep your scooters so clean.
Mine look like they were set on fire, and that fire put out w/ dirt. Just sayin'

Very nice pictures manimal!
Thanks for putting a scooter in every picture!
Was only in California for 18mos...but don't think I saw a sky that blue more than a few times (in San Francisco) and never around LA .
Thanks for posting.

There's a fellow who rides his SYM 150 Wolf bike all over San Francisco with some great pictures, too.
But for the traffic in CA I'd envy you guys!

Thanks for all the views and replies :)

San Francisco has it's share of sunny days. Pacifca and the Daily City area are almost always under the clouds, or rather, fog. Being I live 50 min. South of SF, we get plenty of sunshine, and warmer temps.
