Our route took us down some totally deserted two-lane roads -- great alternatives to I-5 or US101.
Our destination was the Song Dog Ranch in the wilds of eastern Santa Barbara County, right down the road from New Cuyama.
Meals here are a carnivore's delight.
Here you can also see straw-bale buildings under construction.
It's a great starting point for group rides.
After a memorable weekend, it was time to head home.
