I brought 2 bikes down with me for Eroica:
The Hobbs was in the “Display” category of the Concours
The Singer was my bike for riding this year..


I didn’t take pictures of the Saturday festival or Concours..I figured many others would. I met up with a lot of folks I knew and some of you from Bike Forums. It was kind of cool to be walking around and hear someone say “hey I know that bike!” and I knew I was running into a forum member.


I went out for an easy spin east of town with “Bikingshearer” and Joe (not sure his forum handle)..
Here are a few shots from that ride:

I had to split off from them and get back to Paso Robles to take care of some business:
- Picking up a newly purchased PX10 for a friend of mine who had asked if I would bring it back for him
- Getting my Hobbs from the Concours after the show was over


I am now dealing with 3 big bikes packed into a Honda fit. Somehow it does…just barely.


I was invited by Bob Freeman to a dinner party at Ann and Bill Miller’s house in Paso Robles Saturday night. Gourmet food, good wine and fine conversation was a nice way to end the day.
