Solvang Chapter Ride
June 19, 2010
What a PERRRFECT day for a ride! 
Nice weather,
"just
right" temperature & easy traffic conditions. We all met at Pacific Motorsports at 8am, hung out, talked about our
week, etc. with a cup of coffee and friends. Chuck was our designated Road Captain for the day. Chuck
rounded our riders together for a quick together and led the
"Ride Briefing" for the ride. Bob Lopez (our Lead Shepard) greeted and briefed our new rider about our chapter and
ride rules. When the time came to leave, our Sgt. of Arms (Fargo)
got everyone ready to go. Chuck lead the group, Bill & Tony were the Tailgunners.
We headed up the 110 to the 405, to the 10 freeways
to get to PCH in Santa Monica. We rode north to PCH to the 101 north and stopped at a Shell gas station for gas and a rest
(80 miles).
Some of our members "opt'ed" to stay in Solvang for the night. We said our good-bye's and the rest of us
continued our ride back home. We rode out, continuing on the Hwy 246 to Hwy 154 and made our way to the 5 fwy to 405 and back
home. WHAT A GREAT RIDE!! Fun, friends and food..what else could you want?
