Pics at Vasquez Rocks today

...aka, the place where Star Trek "Arena" was filmed.

Oddly enough, I've ridden past the place dozens of times, but never made it into the park itself, so today I stopped to snap a few pics.





Just the rocks (half of them, anyway):








This photo isn't from Vasquez, but overlooking Castaic Lake on the way back (way off to the right in the background).


All in all, it was only a couple hundred mile loop, but man what a beautiful day out on the V12. ...I love this bike more and more every time I throw a leg over!!!

 

great pics, what kind of camera are you using??

 

Thanks 02. My "do everything" camera is a Canon 1D MkIII with a Canon 24-70 f2.8 L lens. It's a potent combo, but not exactly travel friendly in size/weight! lol ...yet that's what I haul around with me.

 

good to see the 1200 out in the wilds.
bike looks great, esp the new akropo

37 MPG seems pretty reasonable for 1200 units of joy

 

Thanks! ...and yeah, she's a LOT of fun. I'm sure I'd be getting better than 40 if I spent at least half my time commuting or droning on the hwy, but most of my miles are in the canyons or twisty mountain roads.

...it's terrible I tell ya!
