Well, Craig and I had a good time this morning. Ran out and back with a stop at Barrett Junction Cafe for lunch. Traffic wasn't too bad. Had a better run outbound than inbound. Got thumbs up from a few motorcycles which is not normal for "cage" drivers to recieve. All in all, about 3 hours time spent including lunch and the weather was perfect so Craig rolled with the top down and I had the windows down.
Also a plug for a great product I was able to try out and it was a tremendous help in negotiating the twisty's.

These pads kept my but in place and let me focus on the driving without the sliding around. Will definitely by buying some in the near future.
Bottom line, great cruise and a ton of fun. We'll be doing it again so hopefully some of you will make it out the next time.
