Does any of this ever get old?

After all, we’ve been riding the same roads for 25 years. And even with the same riders for the last 15. But you already knew the answer to that.

After 15 years with the same faces, we become a bit like family. I have watched my Pashnit Tour participants kids grow up. Graduating through grades, and moving on. And even get married themselves and starting their own families. They’ve watched my kids grow up. I have had two infants while running these tours (my oldest was a toddler when I started these tours in 2004).

Can you really offer an organized activity for 20 years and still have people sign up to ride? Not every tour idea is a good idea and I'm constantly coming up with new ideas. Some tour ideas we do for a couple of years then they get retired. Other tours are so good, they stick around. Even after offering the same motorcycle tour for two decades, this year, 25 riders signed up for this NorCal Tour. Not all those could make this ride in the end, but tour credits never expire and we just roll their unused tour credit to a future tour if they have to cancel for whatever reason.

We'll do it all again in August 2025. And, this NorCal Tour in August 2025 will be 250th Pashnit Motorcycle Tour. The vast majority of these 250 rides, covering some 250,000 miles I've led with my Hayabusa(s).

When we reach Dinsmore, there is the mandatory stop for Ice Cream.

As long as we feed Mark ice cream, he's nice to the tour participants :laugh:

NorCal is it! After moving to the Sierra foothills I sometimes wonder why I ride to other states. Well, not really but here is where I’d ride to if I lived somewhere else. You know it better than I Tim, zig zagging across NorCal and more members here should give it a visit. NorCal is loaded with State and National parks and forests from Nevada’s border to the giant redwoods and the Pacific Ocean. Great pics Tim.:cool:
