Hello Riders, 
 
I have committed to head for the Solvang Motorcycle Museum on Saturday
November 11. Take in the museum that afternoon and spend the night in
near-by Buellton at the Best Western next to the Andersen's Pea Soup (
http://www.bestwesterncalifornia.com/buellton.htm ). Though not as
convenient as staying in Solvang proper, I found the affordable hotels
in Solvang have a two night minimum on weekends which precluded them. 
 
I'll take off from the donut shop at 7:05 and have breakfast in Gilroy
at ODs Kitchen. From there head to Hwy 1, if the coast is clear, or take
25/101 and hope for a clear coast on the way home Sunday. Please drop me
a note if you are interested in riding along and I will phone the museum
in advance to let them know we are coming and how many. 
 
Here is the link once more, for the museum. http://www.motosolvang.com/
