RE: San Francisco Bay Peninsula: Alice's Restaurant (Woodside, CA)
Great pics David of Alice's and Skyline (the road). You can also ride Skyline north too Highway 92 to take you out too Half Moon Bay.( Avoid it though during the pumpkin festival in October) 92 connects to Highway 1 and you can take your pick, south to Santa Cruz or north to San Francisco and beyond.
Another route from your place is catch 84(Livermore) to the Dumbarton bridge, north on 101 to Woodside road and catch 84 through Redwood city and Woodside road which takes you up to Skyline and Alice's (84 and 35 intersect there) 84 continues out to La Honda to highway 1 too.
The bike culture at Alice's has changed through the years. The sport bikes use to park at the Trading Post across the street and the cruisers at Alice's , things change I guess. There's been many press releases of vehicles staged at Alice's and car commercials on 84 too.
We lived in Newark before Sun built campuses on either side of the Dumbarton bridge. Then Facebook, now Meta came in and changed everything on Bay Front expressway. One thing that didn't change was the wonderful road access to the many roads in the area.
In Portland, I often ride to the Columbia river gorge on the historic highway (30) You can ride the interstate (I 84) but you just miss so much. The waterfalls, the fresh air sent from the forests, and of course, the bends of the open country roads, it doesn't get any better. Good memories of living in the BayArea with many new roads to discover in the Pacific NorthWest. Thanks for a Great Job on preserving the CB1100 forum! Russ
