Mild Ride, Day Five, End of the Line.

Today was the last day of the ride...well, not exactly for Ethan and Adam, but I'll get to that in a minute. The remainder of the ride was Atascadero to Costa Mesa, which was pretty much a joke for us and our hogs. Needless to say, not even some rain could slow our role. Now, let's get back to Ethan & Adam. Basically, we all started out of Atascadero at the same time, but being that Adam & Ethan are new to the power of the Vespa's they decided to hang back a bit and go at there own pace. Anyway, a few hours later, and they decided to take a highway that they for some reason thought would be a short cut...guess what, it wasn't. Needless to say, they got caught in a pretty heavy storm and had to get a hotel in Ventura. So it looks like there "Mild Ride" continues on...for another day at least.

Ethan enjoys a cup of tea, pre getting lost and staying in Ventura.


Sean unloads the 150 for Ethan to get sweet on.


Just because we're gnarly bikers, doesn't mean we don't care about hygiene. Stu & Nestor burn ear candles before departure.


Nestor gets bit by the Vespa bug, and gives it a spin on the 150.


I wonder if Ethan knew it was going to take two days to do a five hour ride, do you think he would still want to do it?


Quick break before eating up more highway.


Local creep harassing Nestor.


Finally made it to the finish line. Even the Flamingo made it intact...that's more than we can say about Ethan & Adam.


A well deserved last dinner with the "Mild Rider's" at the Claim Jumper.
