I had heard about a motorcycle museum called Moto Talbott, not too far off of the 101 between Salinas and Monterey, right near Laguna Seca Raceway, but had never had an opportunity to check it out. I was driving home on 101 (Highway 1 along the coast is still closed), so I carved out a little time to check it out.
It's located in Carmel Valley Village, which is along a neat twisty road that made me wish I was driving something other than a rental car. It's a very cool little museum, packed with some unique and unusual bikes.
If you find yourself between LA and San Francisco, or are in the Monterey area for some reason, it's worth a stop and a few hours to poke around. My next wish is to see the Solvang motorcycle museum, but I can never catch it on one of the few days it's open.
Very nice! What is that blue bike in the 3rd photo?
