My friend David and I went out on an epic ride yesterday with the intention of hitting at least two of the ‘famous’ San Diego roads I keep hearing about. Well, we ended up hitting more than just two. (Photo by Rick Clemson) Our ride was a great one indeed, over 200 miles (I lost track) and countless amazing views.

Monster Project mini update- got the bike unloaded and on the bench at Cerberus, attached chain tonight.

You’ll be able to come visit during shop hours at Cerberus Motorcycles shop and co-op on Euclid Ave in San Diego after November. It’s a really cool space inside the historic Egyptian Garage.
