I'm thinking of a OC/Riverside loop:

Santiago Canyon to Santa Margarita Parkway, to Antonio Parkway down to Ortega over to Ramona to Cajalco to Chino Hills EXpway to Carbon Canyon and back to where I live (Anaheim Hills.) No freeways. Lots of good backroad.

Maybe this Saturday.

I have always ridden the motorcycle alone, but I'm up for trying a group thing. Used to ride with 3-5 other guys on bicycles. Fortunately we were all relatively close in fitness/ability and could maintain a decent ride formation without stressing anybody out.

On the GZ, I'm a little concerned about my ability to keep up in the twisties as I tend to take them slower than I probably ought to. I also tend to be slow on the climbs.

If there is a lot of impatient traffic, I pull off to the shoulder and let them pass.

Have I mentioned I'm kind of a pussy?

I have Moedad's e-mail. Send me a PM if you want me to touch base before I go...
