SF Bay Area ride on Calaveras Road today
#1



Hello fellow CB riders ..

Took a nice ride in relatively warm conditions for winter on one of the local twisty and scenic road (calaveras road) today ..

Fantastic day for a mid week ride to enjoy the CB before lunch .. I was also testing my windshield set up ..

I have the national cycle deflector with a universal laminar lip ( lying around from older bikes) taped up and am playing with the set up .. It appears as if I need to set the deflector shield in the lowest position and position the laminar lower than the top edge so I can let the air hit my shoei gt air at. 70-75mph .. The shoei gt air is super aerodynamic in clean air ..

I have not tried the deflector shied by itself at all yet ..

Enjoy the pics and cheers !!

Great pics. Love the unusual looking mountain in the background..unusual in that our mountains are covered in tress and that one looks bare. Looks like a great place for a ride. Thanks for posting up.

Ferret thats normal around here in the lower elevations. Things are so dry during the summer that most trees wouldn't make it.

I've never seen the Bay Area look so dry and brown in the winter ..

We broke the record for the lowest rainfall in a century ??
