Ride to Julian, CA

I have been pretty busy with work lately so I have not had too many chances to ride. One of the rides I have gone on was to Julian, CA. I took some friends out there because one of them wanted to try out a Buell Blast. She was riding a Yamaha VStar, but it was too heavy of a bike for her. Her husband is still riding one of the two VStars that they bought and she is on a Blast that she found on eBay.

The bike that she bought was from another state and they are importing it into CA. As they go through the process I will get the info from them and post a quick how-to.

Anyway, we rode out to Temecula Harley and from there headed out to Julian. If you are in that area you really should check it out, it is beautiful. One word of caution, there are CHP officers and Sheriff's Deputys everywhere!






The roads were pretty fun with nothing too technical. Great place for new riders to get used to riding twisties. There are no large groups of people speeding down these roads, so my friends were able to enjoy themselves.

BTW, Julian is famous for apple pie, so you might want to save some room. ;-)
