Left San Francisco Saturday morning, grey,cold and kinda nasty for riding. Note to selves....always travel with heated vest or jacket, no matter the time of year! Spent night in Fortuna after some great curvy switchbacks, would have been perfect if a little bit warmer. Continuing North on the 101 Sunday. Blue skies today, beautiful rugged coastlines. Spotted a heard of elk on field next to the highway. Maybe 10 or 12 of them, hard to guess as they were laying down in shadow of the trees. Still meeting up with people that were at Sturgis.... Mick was talking to some guy from Hollister, California. He's an organizer for their ride. Say's he has the only bike shop in town. Continued to ride 'til we got to Florence, about 1 hour North of Coos Bay.
