Re: Livermore pics
From the BARF forum...
Here is a long video from Father’s Day Sunday 6/17/18 I am posting so maybe some non-San Antonio Valley Road riders can see what it's like going up from the Mines Road side.
Most of you will be quite bored.
For about 11 minutes from about 2:27 to 13:30 is uncut from the stoplight up to the Lick Observatory.

Re: Livermore pics
I was hoping it would be on the 500. It was still fun to watch on the KR rat.

Re: Livermore pics
Nice collection of cars at the gathering!! One of my old neighbors had an original Pantera with the 351 in it. Not nearly as nice as the black one there, but cool none the less.
Ken, that first pic of your RZ along side the road almost looks like you're in the desert with sand dunes as the backdrop.
I hope we can hang on to the green up here a little longer.....

Re: Livermore pics
Coming around one of the blind big rock turns going up Mines yesterday morning was a concrete truck. It pays to stay on your side of the road I had seen at least five going the other way as I was going up.
The Junction Saturday morning
Going up to the observatory. They were pumping concrete like mad at the bridge project.
Lick Observatory Saturday alot less smoky than last weekend
The Junction on the way down. 30 - 40 Ford Fiestas?

Re: Livermore pics
Today The Junction
There was a rider down on Mines as I was going back to Livermore. They were going toward The Junction. There was plenty of help so I did not stop. Hope he is OK

Re: Livermore pics

Haven't seen any pics from you lately Charlie. Hope all is well.
Went on a long Gold Wing ride yesterday. No photos. Unusual for me
Today
The Junction R1 is way over yonder
The Lick Observatory just a light smoke layer today

Re: Livermore pics
Yeah Ken, its been way too hot up here this summer. A solid month of 90 plus degree days. The last ride was the 2 Stroke ride a month ago, and that was some uncomfortable heat!! (pics from it in the Events thread)kpke wrote:Yes, never a dull moment

I did take a short spin on the RZ today to gas it up and hit some country roads. It was about 30 degrees cooler than the last time I rode it!!
