Friday in Solvang 2016

Our motel breakfast at Olsen's Bakery.  Wes, Tony D., Don (VSP) and Lanny.  Nice way to start the day.  A large group went next door to Paula's.  A good place to eat. But....you have to wait for your food. AND you have to PAY!  :-)

Staging up to go visit the Motorcycle Museum

Donald in his Oregon Beaver colors.  Todd and Sue rode up from Burbank this morning.  Really nice to see them again, it's been a long time.

Both 1940's models.  The one with wheels appears to be in better condition than one with hands and feet.

I took over a hundred pictures of bikes today.  But only posting a few individual ones.

Rotary engine.  Only two of these.  Jay Leno owns the other one.

Nice tire

We were privileged to get a personal tour of the "back room" Virgil's work and storage shop.

This bike will be going to a very prestigious show in Pebble Beach later this year

For a multi-multi millionaire, Virgil seems to be a very down to earth person.  And he loves bikes.

He told us a few interesting and funny stories

This is a new addition to the museum. .  A rare model that wears sweatpants under his riding chaps.

One of the several large windmills in Solvang

Kate and Kasey at Jalama Beach.

The Jalama burger is trademarked.  The certificate is hanging on the wall. 

This Stork keeps busy delivering babies here in town.  There are a lot of his friends hanging out on roof tops and chimneys.

A small County Park.  With a famous place to eat.  Lots of people here on the beach.

One of the few not in a Bikini.

I split with the group and made my want back to Lompoc.  Needed a Walmart fix on the way back to Solvang

Sum Beach

A fun day, and good ride!  I'll add a few of this evening later. If you can see the dirt road going up the hill sort of in the middle...That's a Biglefti road.
