Maybe Nicky or Ben Spies can win it.  Of course, I'm always happy anytime Valentio is on the podium too.

There are always some very hot women at Laguna Seca, and I'm glad to hear you'll be one of them.  Have fun!!

Just curious who else here is MotoGP fan?  Its my first time going, can't wait...I'm like a 5-year-old kid going to Disney for the first time.

Also, if anyone has any favorite restaurants in Monterey I would love a suggestion since I've never been up that way before....

I haven't spent much time there, but the best clam chowder I have ever had was on the wharf.  I wish I could tell you the name of the place.  Cool thing is a lot of those restaurants give out free chowder samples right outside so you can taste first before going in.

Have fun!

Do the 17 Mile Drive in Carmel and the Aquarium.

If you've never been to that area before try to make it to Carmel by the Sea.

Also, if you are driving up there, go through Carmel Valley to Greenfield (off the 101)/Greenfield to  Carmel Valley/Laguna Seca on the way up or back.  It will take longer, but the twistys and scenary will more than make up for it if you have the time.   Especially if you are riding a Ducati 1098 Superbike

Go Rossi! (Valentino and Alyssa)

It's been a couple of years since I ate there, but the Sardine Factory on Cannery Row has always been one of my favorites

It would be nice to ride up that way but I'll be driving and I'll be sure to take the scenic route.  Now, if had a Ducati  848 or even a 749 I would definitely ride up that way but unfortunately I don't even fit on those bikes...lol!

Thanks for the tip!

Abalonetti on The Old Fisherman's Wharf

When I lived in Monterey, I used to eat most of my meals in the Service Company, 20th Infantry Regiment mess hall.  I'm not sure it's still there.
