Just rolled into the barn...
Another stellar fieldmeet shared with very special(in a good way) individuals.
It's good to be on the deal.....
-
We got in a little after 4, washed the bikes, and had a beer (or two). Fixing Korean BBQ with sirloin steak to round out the bovine weekend. Rice and stir - fried veggies as sides.
'Tis always good to be in on the deal. Yawls are special peeps.

The Bovine Dozen
(https://scontent-a-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc1/t31.0-8/884422_731764750201404_420137895_o.jpg)
A special team of experts handpicked and vetted by the Master Bovineologist for an extremely difficult mission. Veterans from previous bovine wars were joined by new recruits. They would let nothing get in their way, road raging Rav4s on HWY 1, inclimate weather, mechanical failures, goat roads that not even goats would venture out on, nothing would stop them. Fueled in the evenings with copious amounts of barley water and red meat ... beef ... BOVINE ... this intrepid team successfully completed the Twisty Bovine 3. You will not want to miss the epic retelling of this adventure, coming to a thread near you soon.

just gotts done loading up the motobrick for next weekends foray into the unknown... this was the best twisty bovine ever... even without lockwood & cerro noreste...
100% yeeeeehaaaaaaaaa...

Awesome weekend. :2thumbup: Wish it didn't have to end... had an uneventful ride home and Turkus and I lucked out on the 150... no blue hairs in Fleetwoods to ruin our twisties... Thanks to all yawl for making it one of the best weekends I can remember. So I am up for Twisty Fish I... or the Just for the Halibut Ride... or I like Crash's idea for Twisty Squid!
-
Hello y'alls. A most excellent weekend I must say. :clap:
There is only one more who has not checked in.... I think he is just south of Red Bluff.
-
Just for the Halibut Ride.
I dunno, this is pretty good to ... or Ride Just for the Halibut ... we need to vote on this with the Bovine 12 I think.

So tomorrow I'll load up some pics of me n m.brane tearing up the Santa Monica Alps the day before Twisty Bovine III... :2thumbup:
-
It began for me on Friday morning. Hooked up with Tim at his hotel in Santa Cruz and headed to Carmel to meet up with Roxanne (Eaton flaked on us cuz it was raining ... punk, he did eventually make it down that night and in time for TB3). Weather was fine until Roxanne showed up and brought rain with her
(http://i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j346/Gulgamesh/Twisty%20Bovine%203/1TimRoxRain_zps96176799.jpg)
Tim and Roxanne at Cafe Keva in Big Sur ... which was closed due to non-existent rain. We ended up down the road at Big Sur Lodge I believe it was, excellent breakfast there.
(http://i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j346/Gulgamesh/Twisty%20Bovine%203/1atimandrox_zpsf39659a6.jpg)
Potty break at Hearst Castle.

Pier at Hearst Castle
(http://i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j346/Gulgamesh/Twisty%20Bovine%203/1cpierathearstcastle_zps7be3369f.jpg)
After this stop, we had an incident with a Rav4 ... guy had some serious road rage issues and we had no place safe to pull off and not get run over. He tried several times to hit us, run us off the road, Tried to side swipe me and threw a slurpie out the window on me and then stopped and blocked Tim and Roxanne (and a long strip of cars as he did a weave maneuver back and forth across both lanes - yes into oncoming traffic). I had to turn around to come back to make sure they were okay and he then crossed the double yellow to attempt to hit me head on. He pulled over when he thought he saw some Rangers, they were a park cleanup crew. We pulled over as well and talked to them to see if they had a radio so we could report the guy in the Rav4, we did not approach him but he was too big of a coward to come out and confront us. License plate reported, probably nothing will come of it, unfortunately this guy is going to hurt someone one day. We refused to let it ruin out weekend.
We stayed at the Santa Paula Inn again this year. Walked down the street during the classic hotrod show to have dinner at Garmen's.
Dinner at Garmen's in Santa Paula with John, Alan, Kris, Bruce and Roxanne. And Roxanne lovely as ever.

And the lovely ladies telling me I am number one ... happens at least once every trip. I think Kris just wanted to get it out of the way early this trip so I would not stalk her for the picture all weekend.

Hiding from the rain after going over HWY 33. Was very wet, cold and windy ... not really what we wanted to ride in. It felt like winter ... and we never had a winter ... very confusing to us all.

The group coming to the traditional Group Picture place at the end of Rossi's Driveway. Unfortunately heading up Rossi, M.Brane lost 3rd gear. Just not there anymore. He had to finish up the weekend without it but did not let it dampen his fun. Then a little later it seems the rear main seal on Roxanne's bike decided to let go ... a common issue with K bikes. Then you get oil on your clutch and it doesn't work so well. She finished up the weekend as well and seemed to take it pretty much in stride too. It could have been worse on both counts, but both finished the whole weekend with their issues and got home so all is good.

The top of Black Mountain ... I will be posting a video of this "road". When we got to the top, I told Johnny I was confused "Why did you call this a goat road" Did you see any goats? No, you know why? The damn GOATS won't even come of that road" I have a video of it I will post later. Not that bad really unless you stop to realize most of s were on relatively heavy sport or sport touring bikes riding through sand washes.

Was that the blue thing strapped to the top of the right tragkorb? And is it a sack or shelter? How did it work out for you?

Yeah, we were a little too occupied at that moment ... wish I had my video running for it tho, would have been pretty damning evidence against that mother fucker.
But .. I did have my video running other times. First video is the goat road ... or un-goat road.

It's this thing http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0056SOA48/ (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0056SOA48/) plus a 15-degree sleeping bag. I put the sleeping bag inside the bivy at home. Pulled it out of the blue bag, removed some clothing, slipped-in and fell fast asleep.

20 over the limit wasn't enough most likely. His driving was very erratic. Even before this as I watched him I was thinking he need to go back to driving school. Tail gating, speeding up and slowing down, weaving back and forth into the on coming lane, passing on the shoulder, he hit most of the biggies including that crossing the double yellow and trying to hit me head on when I came back around after he stopped in the middle of the highway with 15+ vehicles behind him. He was acting like a jackass to everyone, not just us, we were the ones that signaled him to back off. "How dare you tell me what to do" was probably his issue. The only smart thing he did was not get out of his car.

No Hunting?

I’ll try not to be redundant with some of the photos that have already been put up so far.
Here are some of my pics culled from my Galaxy S4 and Canon S90 that highlight some more of the shenanigans and moto-mayhem (with apologies for some of the picture quality – I’m still getting the hang of the new “smartphone” and the Canon is starting a slow, agonizing death spiral).
Day 1 – Friday 4 April 2014
All loaded up and ready to go for a 1230hrs departure….
(http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m528/eturkus1/Twisty%20Bovine%20III%20%20April%205%202014/1.jpg) (http://s1130.photobucket.com/user/eturkus1/media/Twisty%20Bovine%20III%20%20April%205%202014/1.jpg.html)

I rolled out the 210 to the 118, off in Moorpark, and hopped over Balcom Canyon and S. Mountain Road into Santa Paula.
I stopped at the Chevron Supreme with Techron to top off the Brickus Turkus and grab a Peanut Butter Snickers for my tummy.
Just as I was ready to roll, I was accosted in the parking lot by M. Brane and Sprockethead, who had just completed a romp of the Santa Monica Mountains.

Starting on the first Friday of April, and continuing through October, the city of Santa Paula hosts a car show where the local homies break out their hoop-dees and show them off.

Our choice for “fine dining” tonight, Garman’s Irish Pub in Santa Paula.
As it turns out, through a couple of Facebook PMs later on Saturday, this restaurant is owned by the brother of a member of another forum that we haunt, FastRicky…..NOW he tells us.

We have come to the point in our lives where we now eat our food cold as everyone is taking “food porn” pictures just as the goodies land on the table.
We must have been quite a source for amusement for some of the other patrons watching all the flashes going off at out table.

2130hrs and I opted to hit the hay….Dan said he heard Eaton’s bike roll down the driveway around 2230hrs.
I didn’t hear a thing, I was out…..
Tomorrow….the “official start” of Twisty Bovine III !!
As JO sez: “more later…..”

Day 2 – Saturday 5 April 2014
With a “modified” route due to serious weather concerns on one leg of the departure route from Santa Paula (forecast of snow on Pine Mountain Summit) we “adjusted” our KSU time to 0730hrs.
We were all ready to rock by 0700hrs (including Eaton) but we were still missing Roxanne. She had set her alarm for 6:00 PM instead of 6:00AM….

As we headed north on Hwy 33 we saw dark clouds parked on top of the pass. O.K., so we’ll get a little damp…we’re not made of salt and won’t melt.
As we reached altitude, the weather went from alight mist to a heavy drizzle and the temps dropped to near freezing.
NOT a good thing to experience when one is (largely) wearing summer gear….
We sought refuge under the covered motorcycle parking at the Pistachio Store in Ventucopa and tried to dry and thaw out before venturing further.
We were already late to meet JO, MO, and Poach so……wtf.
We will probably be “off the deal” for next year because of this

Westbound on Hwy 58 we head !!
As I was passing the Solar Farm on my left, I spied something out the corner of my eye to my right about a quarter to half mile down the road.
I was closing on it at 80+ and I had Tim Tyler a few hundred yards to my rear.
It darted across the road, froze still, and then looked back at me. Just as I got to within a couple of hundred feet of it (and banging down through all my gears), I realized that it was a Pronghorn Antelope (about 200+lbs of one !!).
It darted back across the road in front of me to the right shoulder where it stayed put, and gave me the stink-eye as I eased on past it at about 15mph.
I’ve seen a lot of stuff on my trips down the road but I’ve never seen a Pronghorn, especially in California !! (sorry, no picture…I was kinda busy )

I “attempted” a 360° panorama “stitch” shot from the top of Black Mountain Rd (where one can see all the way to the North side of the Carrizo Plain) but it didn’t turn out so hot – guess I should have read that part of my camera’s Owners Manual first….

We descended upon Santa Margarita, some of us on fumes, and the only game in town was Pintor’s Tires & Wheels where the only fuel available was Regular at $4.59/gal !!

Reminder and note to self: Winco water bottles are a LOT thinner than anyone else’s, they puncture easily, and DON’T leave your deerskin gloves in the top box anymore – put them in the tank bag where they belong.

We ended up opting to blast down the coast as our dinnertime reservation was drawing near.
Hightailing it down past Pismo Beach to Santa Maria was a “perfect SoCal kinda day” – blue skies, clear views, light traffic, no a-holes.
The kind of day that draws touristas from points east to permanent residency out here on the Left Coast.

Our arrival at the Candlewood Suites in Santa Maria, CA.
Tim Tyler was the smart one to check in first while we were all lollygagging outside.
He came back out to let us know that this is the first night “on the job” for the girl working the front desk.
According to Tim, she almost blew a gasket when Tim advised her that there were ELEVEN more of us right behind him.
She grabbed the phone and hunted down the night manager to assist her with all of us….poor girl – what a way to be broken in.

Jimmy Dean scrambled eggs with ham and cheez ala Roxanne – sorry, JO…no bovine in this breakfast.
It should be noted that Dan had previously called Roxanne on her cell to wake her up with his rendition of Shirley Temple’s “On the Good Ship Lollipop” and barked at her that she was already 30 minutes late for KSU.
I guess she tried to “buy” her way out of this transgression…..

At some point along Foxen Canyon Road, a bunch of us came upon what appeared to be the body of a small beast, or child, laying in the roadway at a very high rate of speed.
We all managed to avoid it and Chris (poached) led us all into the next available turnout to collect ourselves.
Poach went back down the road to investigate what it really was laying out there.

Turns out that Kris (viffergyrl) had left her left saddlebag open and her heated jacket had blown out of the bag – unbeknownst to her.
Poach caught her at the next turn out and returned her jacket to her.

I had been threatening to do this since Twisty Bovine II and I finally was able to seize the moment.
I motioned to CRASH to grab his camera and wait for me to come out from inside the burgler shack after I ordered my requisite Double Jalama Beach Burgler with Chee.
I then showed JO what I had ordered for lunch:

I “think” I redeemed myself when I produced some Bovine….

Lunch, and our final consumption of Bovine for the weekend, completed it was now time to say our farewells to each other
and all scatter to the winds across the Left Coast.

Kris, Alan, John, and I blasted back out Santa Rosa Road to the coast and then headed south;
turning off at Oprah’s Driveway (CA 192) and zigzagged through the back roads of Montecito and into Ojai from the back way.

The four of us topped off at the Chevron Supreme with Techron in Ojai
(and home to “the cleanest ladies’ room in California” if you ask Kris – I’ll just have to take that on faith).
While taking a short break, chatted up a couple on a Harley about the relative merits of heated gear (while we were basking in 80° temps).
Johnny Sprockets and I then made the drone out the 126 to the 5 to the 210 where we parted company at the 57.
I clocked a total of 780 miles on the Brickus Turkus that weekend, my first long distance trip since selling the RT some months back. Other than dealing with the cold and soggy on Saturday morning, it all came back to me right away and my “new” little ride never missed a beat the entire weekend – even managing a respectable 43mpg at one point and after I resigned myself that I’ll NEVER catch M.Brane, CRASH, and Poach….no matter how hard I tried.

While I can safely say that this weekend was probably the most fun any of us have had in a long, LONG time,
it was also bittersweet as this was the last time that most of us will be riding with JO and MO for quite some time.
Twisty Bovines I, II, and now III have etched a special place in all our hearts and memories forever.
Though the cast of characters has changed some over the last three years,
we have all developed a bond that shall forever remain unbroken.
I have enjoyed riding with each, and every, one of you and will ride with y’allz again in a heartbeat
and I am proud, as well as blessed, to call you all “friends.
We are a Band of Brothers and Sisters of the Road :2thumbup:
This is Twisty Bovine :lets-eat: :beer:
And this is how we roll…. :riding:

The End….(or is it ?? :dunno2:)
:k75s

Oh, yeah….one other thing
If you are fortunate enough to be invited on the next Twisty Bovine,
DO NOT EVER contemplate ordering chicken or fish instead of Bovine….

Thanks Johnny Sprockets...sometimes these RRs are harder to put together than they look
(technology malfunctions notwithstanding :hehehe)
Bittersweet ending to JO and MO's reign in So Cal....
It was a fitting final SoCal ride.... :2thumbup:
JO and MO have turned out to be two of the greatest friends, and riding buddies, I have ever had - all this from a chance encounter at Brown Motor Works in Pomona in 2009.
They may be gone from the Left Coast fairly soon but they will, most certainly, not be forgotten.
And there are rumors of a Midwest Twisty Bovine Reunion or a Montana Twisty Bovine being kicked around....
We'll just have to see how and where the winds of chance will blow in the months ahead :riding:
Hey BTW, thanks for the desktop wallpaper my friend!! Great pics all around but I especially like this one...
Now you have two taken in the same spot....one with my former ride and now one with my current ride :yes
