The simple things like being allowed to sit all together at dinner
Burgandy-Braised Beef Short Ribs, garlic-whipped potatoes, mushroom jus, blue cheese mousse.
Admittedly, I have no idea what Jus is, but it was delicious.
The next day, the plan was to head for the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse, but since nearly everyone had been there, that plan got nixed. And replaced with playing with Tom's drone along Highway 1 for some really incredible footage of the tour group riding the Pacific coastline.
Mark and I switched bikes, and you'd be surprised how much horsepower the Triumph Speed Twin has in that tiny motor. At 1200cc, the motor is almost as big as the Hayabusa and Phil's massive BWM R1250GSA

Monya likes to keep things simple, got a Season Pass, signed up for all of my tours & has been commuting from Texas to do these rides. Her plan is to keep the new 2021 MT-09 in California and fly back and forth picking up the bike from storage, and off she goes on another ride.
She bought her very first motorcycle at age 65 and has ridden 27,000 miles in the last two years.
