Too hot to ride? This might help!
Here's a 'cool' vest if you wanna go riding in the crazy heat:
Another cage-related motorcycle fatality
Another cage driver kills a biker. This was a seriously messed-up situation.
The biker, Gregory Clyde Shannon, of Placerville, California, was minding his own business, when along comes a suspected drunk driver in a pickup truck, and hits him head-on. Hit him hard enough to knock the driver's side front wheel off the truck.
The truck driver leaves the scene, still driving the truck sans front wheel. Sparks flying.
Adding insult to injury, it appears that the truck driver continued on for 7 miles - starting numerous brush fires and totally destroying three homes in the process.

This was photo was taken in 1992 on Skyline at four corners (HWY 35 & HWY 9). This was an awesome restoration of a 1974 Norton Commando completed by Mike (back when he had hair).
If you are going to ride a Norton you better have a tool kit.

2006 Amador County Fair
I'm planning on going to the 2006 Amador County Fair in Plymouth (well, to be "fair", it is near my home). It's July 27th thru July 30th this year.
If you are looking for a place to go that weekend, it's a nice ride up highway 49 from Placerville or Sonora / Angels Camp, or up 16 from Sacramento area.
Unlike the typical big-county fair, it's a laid-back, mellow county fair, no big crowds, lots of small-town stuff (including the destruction derby and rodeo on the closing night of the fair.)

Stopped for photos at Hahn / Smith & Hook winery. This is in the heart the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation of the Monterey wine country. There are great views of the valley and the mountians.
