Highway Cow

This morning I took my Dakar on a test ride to get a feel of the new Race Tech front suspension. I went north on 101 cut west on 84/Woodside then back down to Mt View via 280 south. Whilst riding south on 280, I noticed there was no traffic headed northbound. Weird, even taking into account that today was Presidents day. A couple miles in I noticed a black cow trotting in the middle of the northbound lanes of 280. I slowed down to 70mph from 80mph and stood up on the pegs to get a closer look.
Yep, a single black cow must've broke outta the fenceline and gotten loose on the highway. There was a police cruiser, a John Deer atv and several people trying to reign in the cow. About a mile and a half up the road, two police cruisers had completely stopped. I smiled and laughed under my helmet as a continued on my test ride.
The front end is much firmer and responds a lot better than stock. The fork dive on full panic braking is gone. Big bumps are no longer harsh and smaller bumps like highway lane reflectors are barely noticable. Now I'm hoping the weather next weekend holds up and doesn't rain. The offroad ride down to Hunter-Liggett will be a great venue to test out the offroad capability of the Race Tech upgrades.
