Shake Down Cruise

Aloha from Maui,
My son, Kaleo, and I was finally able to get together for a little shake down cruise this past weekend on our used bikes that we purchased.
We picked up my Goldwing in San Jose and drove on Fwy 280 back to San Francisco with me following him in his car.
Getting back to his apartment he and his girlfriend Lindsey quickly dressed and we jumped on our bikes, Kaleo purchased a Honda VFR, and we headed to Sausalito for a quick visit to my brother-in-law on our way to Stinson Beach via Mill Valley and Hwy 1.
The ride was a little over cast with winds coming from the NW. It was a mixed day of sun and cloud cover. Cold when the sun went away and hot when the sun shone.
After lunch we decided to continue to Point Reyes Lighthouse and enjoyed the ride and views. The weather changed a bit and got cold and over cast but no rain. Got there too late to walk down to the Lighthouse.
Returned throught San Rafeal and down Hwy 101 back to The Avenues.
Returned the Goldwing back to San Jose the next day after putting over 200 mi on that short trip.
Cleaned up the bike and covered it and is now ready for our week trip the end of May to Bend,Or via central California through Oroville (Hwy 70) to Lassen and Crater Lake over the mountains and back down the coast to San Francisco.
Kaleo dropped me off at the airport for my flight back to Maui and now we're counting the days until our adventure.
