Took the long way home

[MoeDog]

So today I decided to take the long way home from work, no traffic no cars, just me and the open road. I took 130 from San Jose To Mt Hamilton then continued to some canyon rd to catch up with HWY 5 again. The first part up to Mt Hamilton was kinda crappy for the most part. The road was very ruff and i just couldn't get into the turns.
After i reached the highest point in Mt Hamilton i started to descend and the road got better and kinda wider but for some reason i cant seem to get downhill turns right. They just don't feel natural to me and cant get good lines I tense up to much. once i got onto flat ground it was great, I felt good response from the bike and was actually having a lot of fun, I finally scraped my pegs :cheer: enjoy the pics
this is where the furn started
