Neck gaiters really come in handy on mornings like that.
45 Days on a Gen3 Hayabusa - 2023 Pashnit Touring
- Thread starter pashnit
- Start date
Headed into the Sierra Range
Headed up Monitor Pass - Highway 89 - You see Monitor Pass in this thread multiple times because it's one our favorites. Perfect twisties, brand new pavement, and broad expansive views
Cathy & Hana - these two recently went to Portugal and toured together with another motorcycle tour company:
Ever thought of doing Europe, check these guys out: Marc motorcycle touring

You can see the abandoned fire lookout I rode up to the other day a few posts back
Top of the World - at least in this neck of the woods - we're about level with all the mountain tops

We've been here before, great little lunch spot in Mi-Wuk Village along Highway 108-Sonora Pass
mom n pop place, I think we overwhelm them when the big biker gang shows up

Sprawling metropolis of Mi-Wuk Village.
Some of our riders - Joe is the guy on the Africa Twin. Joe tells me this story that he dropped the Africa Twin in parking lot and it was enough that it activated his SPOT which then sent out all these emergency message texts that he'd crashed. His wife freaked out and is trying to reach him. EMS is calling him to find out if he needs help. Too funny, poor guy. Dealing with the wife, been then done that, I sympathized.
Ken & I have been riding together for 15 years. He's 78 & my oldest rider I think. He has no plans to slow down. He's commuting from Salt Lake City to the Bay Area for several of these tours each season. He finally got smart & got a transit van & just loads the bike in the Transit Van and drives the distance to California for these motorcycle tours from Utah.

Alberto is one of our new guys, this is his second or third tour on his Multi. He did our Death Valley tour with us earlier in the year. Not sure what the pinky means, I'm sure that's some sort of gang symbol or something. Don't mess with that Alberto guy.
Laurent is from France & came to the US in high school, he joined the army right after HS and the Army sent him to Germany to be a tank driver, right back where he came from. He is one of three of our guys that has bought the new Suzuki GSX-S1000GT+. Laurent is a familiar face and rides on 3-5 of these tours every year.
Cathy is a retired medical doctor. Always good to have one of those on a tour. Her husband has also been on these tours, but was in a bad crash on the bike, so while he was healing up, Cathy signed up for all these tours, while he was stuck at home not able to ride. But don't worry, he's recovered & both of them are signed up to ride with us in 2024.
