My observation is the regulars out there refer to such roads with 3 letter abbreviations, like ACH.
But you are new out there, and are being easy on us in that respect.
Here is what you are missing back here in mid-west, yesterday afternoon.
.Most people ask or talk about the scenery, but, to me, the views are really just an added bonus to some fantastic roads.
And, sorry, I'm really not missing that white stuff at all!

I'm excited for my next two trips (this coming weekend) - I'm riding out to Racetech on Friday to have my suspension rebuilt, and then down to Cal State University in San Marcos for the Total Control Advanced Rider Course. Hopefully I'll remember to take pictures. These aren't quite the same kind of rides we've been talking about in this thread, but they're still pretty exciting nonetheless.

Yah, are a few places outside SD that you need to get too before too long. East of San Marcos is the good start of it.
And, In addition to day trips around SD, I need to venture further north.

This kind of view reminds me of all the clueless people, who never get out of the city, never understand the wonderful life we have far out of the cities."Only fe' collected the old way, has any value." from His Majesty O'Keefe (1954 film)

FINALLY!!! It broke the 20' mark... I went out on the Scrambler and had a hoot pulling wheelies and playing on the very sand and dirt ridden roads... Not prime for the Connie but this little thing loves it!
Nice to be out on 2 wheels again... The Infiniti makes the winter bearable but you know your loosing your juice when a 250 feels quick.Last edited by Jedz123; 01-12-2017, 07:18 AM.Jedz Moto

Took my BMW in for an oil change and check up as my BMW portion of the warranty is ending next week. So I figured it would be smart to have them check it out. Then my extended warranty for another 3 years and unlimited miles kicks in....can't believe it's been 3 years since buying this bike. 54,000kms worry free kms!!!
2 degees and a snowflake! Lol
My actual service is being done tomorrow but I brought it in today and they gave me a loaner as always...they do look after me.
This is a fun bike....to bad I won't get a chance to find out as it's too cold!!

Glad they treat you well, but that loaner looks like something that was cobbled together from a parts bin somewhere!lol It isn't just the Teutonic Terror's, many modern bikes look like something that would only be appreciated by insects of some kind...
Your classic Zooks are gorgeous!

Whats the significance to the Super Mario 1-up sticker on the tank, Jedz? That bike looks like a lot of fun. Love what you've done with it!

Nice! I like it! I too grew up on Mario... and more so due it being my namesake. I've often had Mario decals on vehicles. Even have gone so far as to have him tattooed on my arm.
