Wow! What a great weekend I had. I finally had a Saturday off. The weather was perfect, sunny and warm and the riding was perfecto as well. Monetta, my riding buddy and I, headed out early Saturday morning through some beautiful roads up towards the mountains. We passed one area where all I could smell was the leaves. It brought me back to when I was a little kid and my dad would rake up the leaves that fell from the one tree we had. My sister and I would jump in the pile before he could get them all together. I could never tell if he was laughing inside or cursing us out. Sometimes he had this real poker face. Anyway, that scent just brought me right back.
I love it when you could just hear your bike against the trees along the road. Birds flying in and around and it really is just you and the road.
As we got further along we decided to stop at this adorable diner like place called Le Peep. They had pictures and animation of all kinds of chickens. I figured their specialty was eggs, hence the name Le Peep. They must have had every combination of omelettes and eggs going. Monetta had an egg white special, with peppers, spinich, brocolli and what ever else they threw in. I had a gooey swiss cheese omelette that was heaven on earth. We also split this cinnamon bun thing with creme cheese icing and syrup. Yum! Now that's what I call a breakfast.
After we devoured everything, we headed out. We rode back through some mist and a peering sun. It was so hot when we rode up, so the mist really felt cool on my face.
I really do have to get a camera because all I was thinking of was how everyone should see these breathtaking views.
For the next couple of hours we just rode. I followed Monetta since she knows the back roads alot better than me. When we stopped for gas, we decided to go down to San Diego Harley for their weekly band and barbecue. There's always a good crowd there and people to meet or catch up with. I love that camaraderie that we all share.
Well, I hope you all had a great weekend and have a fun week! Get out and enjoy!
Peace, my riding friends~
