Blue/White in Norco a few weekends ago. And I fairly regularly see a few on the 605 going NB through the Whittier area. Also saw another Blue/White a few weeks back on the 5 just north of the 605, looked like they (being followed by a non-TL) were going on a trip with packed saddlebags.

I did stop one recently on the 105, Yellow, 18yr old kid, first bike...t-shirt with the obligatory chest protector. Let him know exactly how little the chest protector will help him at the speeds he was going.

Saw another one this morning, around 7:40 westbound on the 105 just east of the 710 in the HOV lane. Yellow with aftermarket exhaust, was otherwise occupied so I didn't get to meet the rider.

Finally got to meet the rider on the yellow TLR today. Says it's an 02 that he's had since day one. Nice guy, said he had never heard of TLZ or TLP. He has now. Also said he needed parts (which is one of the reasons I met him today...he needs quite a few things), so hopefully he'll find one of the sites.
