I went back to Alice’s through a long series of favorite back roads. I’m still loving this bike. I can ride it all day. I rode up 1 to 17, taking Mount Hermon to the base of 9, but took Felton Grade up to Empire Grade and then down a beautifully resurfaced Jamison Creek to get to Boulder Creek. It was 100 degrees there! Got gas and headed up 9 to Skyline and then to Alice’s. A more comfortable 85 there. Took my old way home 84 to La Honda and then Pescadero, Cloverdale, Gazos Creek to the coast where it was a wonderful 64 degrees. Then Bonny Doon, Pine Flat, Empire and back down Felton Grade to Scotts Valley, 97 there! Made my way to 1 south and then took the fun detour of Elkhorn Slough to take me home where as usual it is a pleasant 75. Is it only California you can get a 36 degree change during your motorcycle ride?
