Sunday February 3rd.  Club ride to the California Oil Museum. (with a surprise)
 
As it turns out February had a couple of surprise's and the weather turned out to be a little colder then normal. 
The month started out with our club ride making a last minute change in our destination.  We got a invite to go to the Mike Taggart/Guy Webster combined collection in Ojai.  It was their grand opening for the museum collection. 
 The weather was absolutely beautiful that day with a huge turn out at their new Museum.  Housed in a small industrial park in downtown Ojai.  So after the usual breakfast meeting at Denny's, we took a quick show of hands as to where we wanted to go, and the collection was voted as the place we all wanted to see.  We met up with the Norton club at their usual hang out in Moor Park and then took the back roads to Ojai.  As a matter of coincidence, we ended up passing the original destination, the California Oil Museum on the way up to Ojai.  You can view pictures taken on that ride here:   http://www.photosbytink.com/Guy_Webster_08/
In attendance were, Doug Bingham, Russ Smith, Mike Smith, Peter Dean and friends, Bill Zabala, Larry Grenville and myself.
After viewing all the neat cars and bikes both in the museum and in the parking lot, we decided to head out to Ventura harbor for everybody's favorite  "Fish and Chips".  Tummies full we walked around the harbor a bit and then headed
home. All and all, a good time spent in the company of good friends. Many thanks to Brian Tinkler for the excellent pictures taken that day.
