My wife and I always loved riding to Julian and spending the night or weekend there. We lived in Hemet. We moved to Tennessee. Big Bear was also a favorite ride, as was the Angeles National Forest, Ortega Highway, PCH, and many others. I'm finding that northeastern Tennessee has even more exciting rides than we ever imagined! Ride well.
Great video...looks like a wonderful ride. I just did the Chapman to Santiago Canyon ride yesterday. There are so many great rides in SoCAl. Thanks for the video!
I’ve never been through the Warner springs, I didn’t even know about it but I’m looking it up now, might take that route up the next time I go up to Julian 🤙🏼 thanks for the recommendation!
If you travel east of Julian on Ca. 78 you’ll go down Banner grade to Anza Borrego. And if you take S3 off of Ca. 78, you’ll get to Borrego Springs. Both these roads are incredible. The Nickel brewpub is off of Ca. 78 before Banner grade BTW if you continue on the road north of the Julian Beer company you’ll run into Wynola Road another great road, you can head either direction, west takes you to Wynola ( and Ca. 78/ 79)while east you’ll end up on Ca.78 and the Banner grade. Furthermore CA 79 which splits from Ca. 78 just east of downtown Julian is another gem, it will take you to Sunrise Highway which goes to Pine Valley and interstate 8 or if you stay on Ca. 79 Descanso and interstate 8.
Nice. I live in Riverside County and often ride to Julian for lunch and some pie. We usually take the 79 south to Pechanga Pkwy and head south to the 76 then east to the 79 and on to the 78. Always take the 79 to the 15 back home.
Hey man thanks for sharing these great locations and roads! Definitely gotta hit that Julian beer spot! That breakfast place on the first day looked solid! Snowing here in Vancouver BC so getting to see some of these rides is required! Keep em comin! Happy New Year to you guys!
I’m glad your enjoying the rides! Hope you are staying warm there and that you get to ride some of the fun rides that you like seeing soon! Wishing you the nothing but the best this new year!
Lived in socal 25 yrs plus n have never visited Julian. Shame on me, but it is on my bucket list real sooonnn... thank you for the video n enjoyed. What other places do you recommend nearby for two days trip?
From someone here my whole life this is the way I’d play it next time. I’d do 15 to 76 east past pala with a destination of Josie’s hangout for lunch. From Josie’s I’d then either head to Julian if you want to end up there otherwise head to Ramona and down the hill past the wild animal park. Alternatively you can hit the 79 south off the 15 in Temecula to Josie’s if you want to mix it up.
Both those routes sound great! I’m definitely adding that to my list and then next time I go up plus I always love some good food spots for the trip, thanks for the recommendation 🤙🏼
I did a trip the other day. Moreno Valley, to San Clemente via W 60, W 91, S 15, (twisties) HWY 74. Then off to Oceanside on the S 5 to ride E 76 then headed 15 N then 215 N, completing the trip back to Moreno Valley. BTT i almost reached Oceanside, traffic jam on S 5, I probably did the longest lane splitting for this year on Saturday. 177mi round trip.
I was enjoying your video right up to the point that you went to cell phone profile and kept it that way for way too long. I dropped out because of that. Just turn your phone and shoot in full screen if your going to make UA-cam videos. I probably would have subscribe if not for that. Just thought I'd give you some feedback. Good luck with your channel.
It’s been good, the seat supports you better for long trips like free ways due to the lumbar support and also because the seat is thinner in width I feel like I get more air flow between my legs which in turn keeps me a bit cooler, the seat does break in and get more comfortable the more miles you put on it in my opinion. So I would say there is a slight break in period with the seat I found.
That’s a good suggestion! The next time I go through there I’ll see if there’s a good way to add that on visually for people to see so they can use it for their trip 🤙🏼

Ride well.
That is awesome it’s such a great ride and that you could do it that frequently is amazing, I bet there is some great rides out there to explore!
Great video...looks like a wonderful ride. I just did the Chapman to Santiago Canyon ride yesterday. There are so many great rides in SoCAl. Thanks for the video!
The Santiago canyon is a classic! So glad you enjoyed the video!
Living in Western New York, I'd love to ride Southern California. Someday, maybe. Great video and thanks for bringing me along.
there is definitely lots to explore and great roads to ride out here, I hope you make it out here one day to experience it first hand!
Another great ride is through Warner Springs. You can hit the 79 from Temecula, down through Warner Springs south towards Julian.

I have been wanting to try some different routes up there, I definitely will be trying some of those routes up!
We ride up to Julian practically every weekend and I know I am so lucky to be able to do so.
Its truly one of my all time favorite rides of all time, that is so awesome you can ride it so frequently!
Really enjoyed the video and beautiful bike ….stay safe out there 🤙🤘
Thank you so much! You as well! Hope you’re going on some fun rides soon! 🙌🏼🤙🏼
I love going to Julian. I live near LA it’s worth driving down there
The ride look awesome enjoying the videos keep them coming
Thank you so much, I’m glad to hear you are enjoying them!

My brother is going to be moving out to riverside with in the next couple of months, we will have to try and take that route down there!
@@holdfastmoto Awesome. Maybe Ill see you on the road. Ride safe.

I really like the bike shed in LA, and if you want a longer ride solvang up past Santa Barbra is a cool place to visit

Dude that sounds like “the” route hit me up lets go!!!!!!
Beautiful ride!
It really was! One of my absolute favorites
I did a trip the other day.
Moreno Valley, to San Clemente via W 60, W 91, S 15, (twisties) HWY 74.
Then off to Oceanside on the S 5 to ride E 76 then headed 15 N then 215 N, completing the trip back to Moreno Valley.
BTT i almost reached Oceanside, traffic jam on S 5, I probably did the longest lane splitting for this year on Saturday. 177mi round trip.
That sounds like an awesome ride! And I’ve definitely had to split up and down the 5 multiple times haha it never fails to be backed up
For.all the bad stuff you hear about California it does seem beautiful. At least most of it is.
💯💯👍

So how are you liking your Saddleman for long rides?
It’s been good, the seat supports you better for long trips like free ways due to the lumbar support and also because the seat is thinner in width I feel like I get more air flow between my legs which in turn keeps me a bit cooler, the seat does break in and get more comfortable the more miles you put on it in my opinion. So I would say there is a slight break in period with the seat I found.
You should include maps with pit stops and fuel stops
That’s a good suggestion! The next time I go through there I’ll see if there’s a good way to add that on visually for people to see so they can use it for their trip 🤙🏼
Tedious.
These are ancient 1950's era hardley abelson's. These are not motorcycles
Nice video
Thank you!
