We didn't see many motorcycles except for a handful of Harleys and metric bikes in various parking lots and the occasional bike jetting by on the highway; it's possible that we missed out on larger collections of motorcycles due to our late arrival.

Unbelievable Day in the Hills
Had a meeting in Capitola this morning so I rode down to get through some of the bad traffic areas on 880 and 17. After the meeting I rode up Hwy 9. I started to get that sinking feeling, because there were several areas of one lane traffic and road work.
Once I got through Boulder Creek an unbelievable thing happened - there was not a single vehicle in front of me the entire way up to Hwy 35. I stopped at Four Corners for a few minutes and then decided to ride up to Skywood Trading Post for a sandwich. Again there was not one vehicle on the road in front of me.
