| So I rendevouzed with a small group yesterday from an online meetup group. We rode from San Dimas to Toms Farm. Route Map Section 1 The from Toms Farm to Lookout Pt Route Map Section 2 While we were at Lookout I was lucky enough to encounter another GRiSO rider on his 1200 And we watched a 1975 Norton pull into the parking lot and promptly catch fire under the seat. Then we rode to Cooks Corne Route Map Section 3 and then to Southern California Motorcycles in Brea Route Map Section 4 and then I went home Route Map Section 5 which means I racked up 275 miles and I had a good time showing the world my damn hot bike. | |

| Looks like another good day on your GRiSO. You circumvented my entire youth, as I was born in San Bernardino and grew up in Cypress! It would be even better if you took some to rub it in... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]2012 MOTO GUZZI GRiSO 1200SE2013 MOTO GUZZI STELVIO 1200NTX - Orange Blossom Special | |

| There was one little problem with riding with this meetup group. They had a tendency to have speed fluctuations. Anywhere from the speed limit then on down to 15 mph below the speed limit. Which made me feel very vulnerable on the freeways. I noticed this problem with another meetup group too. Maybe I should stick to sportbike groups. I have been contemplating a loop from my home in Apple Valley out to Lucerne Valley and up Hwy 18 to Big Bear then out 38 down to Highland to 330 back up to 18 then along the north shore of Big Bear Lake (Fawnskin) back to Lucerne Valley. | |

Yeah our Rat pack has that problem, some members get a little nervous at more than 20mph over the limit. I think they may just be worried about how big the ticket gets then, I | |

Stick with Guzzi riders if you want a nice clip that's not death defying. Better yet, put a GRiSO ride together. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]2012 MOTO GUZZI GRiSO 1200SE2013 MOTO GUZZI STELVIO 1200NTX - Orange Blossom Special | |

| Yeah. I am going to have to suggest cabals every third weekend when I have 5 days off. And go riding with some True Believers. As long as I post up the week before??? | |

I don't put up with that crap... I'd be breaking off these idiots after 5 minutes and ride on my own for the rest of the day (done it before). Then again the term "Group" and motorcycling just doesn't jive in my book. I wanna go on bike rides, not fukking Parades! | |

| Yeah. There were two problems with being in a parade. A) It frustrates the Hell out of me. B) It frustrates the Hell out of my GRiSO.
