Friday Meetings and Deus Sunday Mass

By 66 Underachiever
I rode up to Baldy for a work session (really) Friday afternoon. The weather was perfect and traffic was light. The people and food at the Mt. Baldy Lodge are hard to beat and it's only about twelve miles up the hill from Route 66 (Claremont / Upland). You can take Glendora Mtn. Road back down and pick 66 up in Glendora and make a nice little ride of it. Lori and I rented a cabin a couple years ago and it was pretty fun too.

R&D
After carb tweaking and a thread repair on the R100S's left head I rode up to Venice to hang out with the cool kids. Deus Ex Machina held their Sunday Mass after the VVMC Third Sunday Ride. Deus took over the old Conroy's building at Venice and Lincoln and transformed it into "The Emporium of Post Modern Activity" with music by Brook and River, grilled sausages, and beers. They also serve the most incredible coffee ever from Handsome Coffee Roasters. If you like coffee you need to go try some. I bought a bag and we're drinking it right now! This party was perfect except I forgot about the eclipse and missed it riding east. Julian and Stefan said they're doing it again next Third Sunday so bookmark their site and "Like" them on Facebook for updates.
Deus Sunday Mass.

Mike Hodis of Rising Sun Jeans hosted a post Inspiration party Sunday with all the trimmings. Rising Sun hand crafts denim and work wear on antique sewing machines using traditional techniques and the highest quality materials. Mike's passion for quality is only rivaled by his knowledge and skill. Took the R100S out Santiago Canyon to try out the new throttle cables...they work, and had lunch at the Silverado Cafe . This place is pretty good. It reminds me of the cafes found in small towns far away from California. The waitress was real nice, the food was good, and lunch was less than $10 including coffee! I'm going to try breakfast next time. Cafe Racer Lunch Counter at Silverado Cafe I was honored to be allowed to drink from Rosemary's pretty cat mug. We got more Schott 141 Cafes and 689H Retro Horsehides. We're still waiting for  Women's One Stars. The NHRA Winter Nationals were this week and I hung around the

Since you're here...this car really had a gold plated drivetrain and lots of trim including custom made bumpers. Believe it or not it looked really cool in a strange way. Here you go Barbary Buzzard. Lori got better shot of engine compartment. and the bumpers.

Lucky Triumph Last week's Triumph troubles are turning out to be a pretty good thing...if you're the Triumph. Lori's been wanting to do something with it for awhile and said, "Since it needs a battery I might as well take the gas tank off and see about paint." So the battery's here, the tank and rear fender are off, she's shopping for a tail light assembly, and pondering some paint options. Here's a few pictures of her tearing it apart after we siphoned the gas out of it. Here's a few more with the color turned on. Agriculture Report The seedlings were transplanted into their new pots Saturday. Lori knocked the bottoms out of the eggshells and planted them with Marigolds to help repel insects. They're taking well to their new homes and look like they've grown in the last twenty four hours! More at  www.townhomesteader.com   Crazy Old Jeep This Jeep caught my eye while fueling up last wee
