Chris is a slum lord in SoCal. No - really I think he is. He owns a lot of property in San Diego County and I think a few spots around Los Angeles. I have seen pictures of the literally hundreds of bikes he owns, but still haven't met him. I only know him from a SoCal based internet message board of notorious reputation.
He recently took this 1977 TZ750 for a ride up and down Mt. Palomar. This is possible because his "ranch" isn't too far away. He had a couple of local buds flank him and his seriously non-street legal race bike for the trip. Good Christ I could not image the heartbreak should he have gotten pulled over and CHP or SDCS impound it.
Leaned against the deck railing at Mother's in this pic I really miss the time I spent in San Diego. The "Lunas" at Mothers weren't that great. In fact I was never really impressed with the food at Mothers. The riding and the riders kept me coming back- and the chance to ride a bike like the TZ750 on the east grade at Palomar, then down Montezuma highway, into Borrego and back...........oh yes it is envy.
