The Doublemint Twins

That's pretty darn cool. pdedse loaded that thing up like a rented mule. Impressive.

Haha...this was a "spur-of-the-moment" trip for me...it wasn't even an idea until about 2 weeks ago, so I had to use what luggage was available. Spent 4 nights at 3 spots, and the last two I tried to look for camp ground, but no luck. So, I'm packing tent, sleeping bag, cooking equipment in that luggage besides the normal mc trip things.

I think I'll be able to use the camp items on the way home.

And Gone, thanks so much for your trip route suggestions. Like I said, it was a highlight of the trip down here meeting you and seeing just a bit of your world. Thanks too for the lane-splitting tips--helped a great deal for about a 15 mile stretch in LA.

I'll likely start a road trip report over at ADV rider soon, maybe link here.

Today was my first full day in La Jolla. Got new tires on my daughter's car, oil changed, and am...cat-sitting for the next 10 days. For once, feels kinda good not to ride today.

Ordered a bike cover and hopefully out-of-sight-out-of-mind means no one takes it as the RE sits forlonely along the side of the street.

Maybe tomorrow or Sat I get back on it to check out some local San Diego riding.
