Virtual Group Ride

Since Savage Riders are so few and far between, we ride together virtually. This Sunday we went for a ride to take pictures of the Fall Foliage:

While we DO have some trees who's leaves change color and fall in the Fall, most of the color is more in the line of flowering. The Bird of Paradise is a common weed in California, and the Chrysanthemums are in my front yard.

I rode to Griffith Park to take the pictures of the trees, and since the Los Angeles River flows past the park I figured I'd take a shot of one of the scenic waterways of L.A..

It was, of course, a mere coincidence that there was a motorcycle event there at the same time. This one was a Side-Car get-together. These pictures I thumbnailed, click on the small for the big:

That last sidecar is very similar to what my Uncle Jack had when he picked me up from London Airport in 1958.
