Fair enough. Hopefully I’ll get to Pierce on Sunday, but we can always arrange to meet another day.
A round trip ride from Bakersfield to Calabasas is quite a haul.
Wear driving shoes if you have them, or whatever shoes you have that leave the smallest footprint. The pedals are close to each other and your toes may be obstructed from above. Bring ear plugs, extended wind buffeting at freeway speeds can be annoying. If wifey is going with you, just know that cabin noise will be loud so conversations won’t be easy. Test the horn before you get going and drive defensively. Make sure your cell phone is charged. Drive defensively. Wear a hat that fits snugly, and maybe bring a backup. And drive defensively. Good luck!
