Same ride as last month, but better this time!

Tho the group was smaller on this ride, we were able to have less wait time between stops. It was fun mashin though the turns on Palomares & Redwood. After yesterday's Annual Newbie ride, I had the itch for more speed as it gave me more confidence and a reminder on how to ride properly. We were going pretty fast and I got to keep up with some of the bigger bikes on those turns.
Here's some of the few pics I took
