Saturday's Zen Loop in Monterey

Crossed post from SBR:
----------------------
Saturday April 12th
On the road at 1045am
Meeting at Starbucks in Marina
(Reservation and Del Monte Intersections: Look for Burger King, opposite of Jack-in-the-box)

Riders in attendance:
1. TwistedGray/TwisedCBR
2. Zeminsky (SouthBayRiders)
3. Motorrad (Pashnit)
4.

Route leads up to the Zen Monestary (12 miles of dirt in and 12 miles out) and it will end at Fort Ord. If we have enough time we'll toy around there...

Monestary is closed until May

Re: Saturday's Zen Loop in Monterey

Hey Tommy, sounds like fun ride. I've been wanting to check out Tassajara to Zen retreat and hot springs since the winter rains. Count me in, unless a golf match captures me; it is Spring, should be near 80's on central coast this weekend, all outdoor options are a go.

Re: Saturday's Zen Loop in Monterey

Paint will be done by then but probably still soft so we'll see how the Krylon holds up

See you in the AM Tom

Sounds good, I'll plan to be at the meet location by 10:30am. Looks like an awesome, warmer, clear day to ride this route. Any other locals interested; Eryx, Otter?

Now this sounds interesting, I hope his wrists and suspension are up for Tassajara. No worries, will be a fun day riding.

Re: Saturday's Zen Loop in Monterey

After riding those roads I would always finish the ride with an Adobado Burrito from El Rancho Market in Marina. Finish off a memorible ride with an unforgetible Burrito.
