    Noob from left coast

    Hola! Been here 6 months or so, still shaking off the idea of the short riding season, but loving life anyway. Glad to see lots of bikes on the road lately, looking forward to exploring the twisties of New England.

    The best part - NorCal. I lived in Redwood City, just between SF and San Jose. Had some of the most amazing roads practically in my backyard. The Santa Cruz Mountains, and the famous Alice's Restaurant (a.k.a. four corners). I sure will miss those roads. And the burritos.

    The PCH is nice, but lots of traffic if you hit it on a weekend. Definitely drop me a line before you go, I'll tell you some great roads to hit. And where to get a great burrito.
