I just took most of those routes this past week on my 4 day trip. I might be down for it again next month. Not confirmed yet. If I'm not too tired from my 2 week trip to South America, then I'll join ya with another friend.

Those are some great roads!

Haha... I just stayed at 3 of them this past trip. I was thinking way shady, it's actually not half bad for $45.

How did I miss this thread? Count me in for the SLO loop! ;D If there aren't many of ya and you don't mind couch/ floor I can put ya up for the night in SLO if needed. I'd probably run the Saturday loop with you but none of the rest. Gimme a call when you come through the area. The only weekend I can't ride for sure is the April 12th. I'm gonna be down in Torrance for a job interview. April 19th is Open House at Poly but I can slip away for a nice ride. ;D
