Today as I was walking to my car at work, I saw a Sportster with its headlight on. I assumed the owner had accidentally set the parking lights, but when I walked over to it, I found he left the keys in the ignition. I left the keys with a guard, I'm hoping the owner finds them.

Buenas noches, (Los) Angelinos! I'm waiting for paint to dry, which you probably would have concluded on your own, between the apparent boredom and/or signs of huffing base coat. Indulge me for a moment. Setting aside her unfortunate politics and tendency to regularly commit career suicide, I think Michelle Shocked's Come A Long Way is one of the best chronicles of a motorcycle trip ever jammed into a 4 minute pop song. But I have always wondered--do the Los Angeles area landmarks noted on this trip add up to the 500 miles claimed in the chorus? I don't know the geography, but reasoned that it was theoretically possible to zig zag around the county in a day and rack up 500 miles. In any event, they have this google maps thing now to remove all doubt. The landmarks, as seen on her Yamaha Virago 920: The Plaza Hotel MacArthur Park East LA Watts Tower San Pedro Bay Mullholland Drive Wilshire, past the Rodeo (Drive) and the Pachyderm (LaBrea Tar Pits, methinks) Eagle Rock I can't get this to crack 100 miles. I'll be charitable and call it 200 to allow for wandering around and my route inaccuracies. I don't see 500 happening. So I ask you, Cali goons past and present, ever clock 500 miles in a day and never leave LA?

If you expand that to the county, 500 miles is easy peasy, https://www.google.com/maps/place/Los+Angeles+County,+CA/@34.2997534,-118.2499352,10z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x80dd2ad30164cd31:0x837d28d6cfbd392a look at that huge area, including a very large amount of mountain roads. The route you posted barely leaves LA city proper except for not going back and forth on the long beach corridor *edit: here's 439 miles before google decided I can't modify the route any more and I didn't even finish my route https://goo.gl/maps/fpEKG 11 hours haha Gillingham fucked around with this message at 04:44 on Jun 9, 2015 |

I dislike green belt legislation for a lot of reasons, mainly because it's used by provincial NIMYistas to prevent them ever having to see an ethnic person, but when I look at LA I thank God that London never achieved the level of urban sprawl than 1950s planners had in mind before the green belt was created. When you go to the few areas where they actually got their way (Westway, the A102. Park Royal, etc) it's like you've been transported to some weird Fallout-esque post-apocalyptic universe except instead of nuclear bombs the war was fought with concrete mixers. Or, as we like to call it in the UK, Birmingham. http://www.cbrd.co.uk/articles/ringways/ is a fairly interesting read about the most-developed of these plans, and even these guys (who get very excited about the Guildford System of road signage) acknowledge it was a lunatic plan. Some of the immediate post-war plans (including extending the M1 all the way to Marble Arch and making the entire Inner Ring a motorway) were even more ridiculous, and would have destroyed more homes than the loving Luftwaffe managed..

I've got a serious problem where I can't seem to keep the same bike for more than 3 months. In the last year, I've had a Goldwing, SV650, and now a DRZ-400. Now I'm eyeballing 919's on CL.

Just changed the oil on my CTX700 today. I swapped out the stock oil for Rotella T Synthetic at 300 miles, and it's running the same thing now at 6,100 miles. I was still within the dipstick limits at 6,100 miles with ZERO oil topoffs, and it was still brown instead of pitch black. I love this boring bike.
