Calinazaret Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hi, I'm Julie and I just moved out from California. I was 100% moto for a number of years out there (no car) and the idea of not being able to ride for months on end has not fully sunk in haha. I was a member of the Bay Area Riders Forum (BARF). But I love Ohio so far, and love riding so "Ohio Riders" sounds like a good place to hang out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moto-Brian Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Welcome. Several friends from up that way. Our corporate office is in Cupertino and have ridden quite a few roads in that area... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calinazaret Posted April 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 I'll be in Anaheim for work in a couple weeks. Any details on quality routes? Also, the best place to rent a sportbike?Oh.. and, welcome. Hey, I was born in Anaheim! But I've never ridden down there. Mostly I lived north by SF. But highway 1 along the coast is always gorgeous. It's not always best for riding due to traffic, but it's right on the ocean from Oregon to Mexico. There's some good roads in the hills north east of LA. Remember that lane-splitting is legal in Cali! Because it's basically a necessity in the city. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) Welcome to Notcalifornia!!! You got here just in time to see what spring is like: cold, hot, rainy, cold, dreary, sunny….well, you get the idea. Not sure where you're located (presume C-bus) but if you get a chance, wander south to the Cinti/NKY area for some great twisties. Won't make you stop pining for California roads, but will take some of the sting out of trading the west coast for the midwest. And for more SW OH riding opportunities, join the Assfault Junkies forum (younger, more active crowd, race-oriented, some occasional unnecessary drama???) or LocalRiders forum (older, less active forum, day rides and week tours). [says to self: "Why do I always note that LRs are 'older'? Makes us sound slow and boring."] Edited April 14, 2014 by Bubba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh.. and, welcome. Hey Pauly, when we were living out in California, I would ride the Ortega Highway a lot - worth checking out if your going to be in Anaheim. Take the I-5 South to State route 74 and ride it into Lake Elsinore. Be sure to stop at the Lookout Roadhouse for some lunch, iced tea, or to just check out the view of the Lake. Other suggestions would be the Mulholland Hwy (check out the Rock Store) in the Santa Monica Mountains and the Angeles Crest Hwy (Rt 2) in the San Gabriel Mountains. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Depending on what kind of riding you like, SE Ohio seems to have the best (twistiest) roads in Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
