Merry Christmas from SoCal (pics)
 

For as long as I can remember I have celebrated Christmas morning by taking a bike ride. After a month a dealing with all the traffic from the Christmas shoppers, Christmas morning is a welcome break.

Here are a few pics from this morning's ride.

Nice pics Baddog, today was beautiful outside

This looks a lot like where they shot that meeting with Mr. Redfoot scene from Usual Suspects.


Cool pics as always. :thumbsup

Beautiful landscape. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Merry Xmas

btw What the model name of the babe in that pic and how much cost it.

They are 2009 Royal Enfield's, manufactured in India. Royal Enfield has been around since 1955 and most [or a good portion] of their bikes are made for the Indian Army.

To be honest, I did not know the company still existed, but it seems that they have been around and are sold in 49 states (all except CA). I happened to come across these guys.

Apparently, they are getting ready to be released in CA and I happened to come across two of the four in this state.

That is a Night Train with a Heartland lowering kit and a few [dozen] mods. I am not sure how much it would cost to try and duplicate it.

Had to Google it. Yes, they filmed part of it at the Korean Bell of Friendship. http://www.movie-locations.com/movies/u/usuals.html

looks like a nice ride :)

I found some new places that you will enjoy.

Can't wait :)

Very Nice pics...Merry Christmas.. :thumbsup

Merry Christmas :)

Merry Christmas

merry xmas baddog and goodgirl

Thanks :321GFY

What is the :321GFY for?

Thank you, you too.

LOL, I think he missed the thumbs up and hit the middle finger on accident. They are close together and J.Falcon is a pretty cool, non drama, non-troling type of guy.:thumbsup





Looks great. I miss that area. Grew up there. Leaving the beach area was the hard to do.


Thanx for sharing.:thumbsup

Sorry man, I meant to put this guy :thumbsup

:thumbsup

Thanks for mentioning that, soon as I saw them, I knew what they were(being indian mfg) new. They were sold in Canada about 5-6 yrs ago , never really took off:winkwink:

Have not stopped by, but drove right by it yesterday. Is it worth the stop?

I don't need much of an excuse to go for a ride. :)

Merry Christmas and nice bike!!:)

awesome shots

Love the black bike! :thumbsup

English bike that went belly up.. however an Indian company bought the patent and still produce new '50's' enfirelds I have read online somewhere...

great pics mate!

Great pics indeed :)

merry christmas!

did you get any pics of the 3-eyed fish?

Awesome pics man, Merry Christmas! :thumbsup

This is all these are good for IMO - they are extremely photogenic but actually ride them and they are crap, barely getting above 40... military bikes I think.

Great pics though :thumbsup though very disappointing the number of yachts in the harbour - I would have thought that port would have been chocka.

Very cool pics, thanks for sharing them!

They are 500cc with fuel injection, solid state ignition and a Harley-Davidson valve train.

They are not 'speedy" by any means, but they are freeway legal.

Nice pics as usual baddog.

Thx and Merry Christmas! :thumbsup
