Tuesday rideNor Cal

[raydog]

Well myself (raydog) and Kento Moto finally hooked up for a great ride! We started in Chico, CA, met up with another group (called 530riders) and rode north into the Sierras, Mt. Lassen Nat Park. 12 hrs in the saddle for me! Great ride, pics follow.......
1st is Dani from 530riders, so fun to ride with a female that can ride!

Sorry I wasn't able to meet you Raydog. The doc said no riding for up to six weeks after a concussion.
Lassen volcanic is one nifty piece of real estate. The road is open early this year due to the dry winter as the snow at 12,000' + is not usually cleared until the 4'th of July

Me & Raydog got to whick it up a bit on one of the back roads. I surprized how long we had to wait for the others to catch up. Lunch was in Shigletown.

Dani was indeed very ( for a girl ) and the new cbr 600 only had about 200 miles when she left her place ... by end of day the bike was offcially broke in.

I am pissed that national parks are no longer free to enter as they originally intended but another pisser is some guard shacks are no longer manned. Please put your money in an envelope when u enter this park, call 911 if there is an emergency...

 

[Kento-Moto]

Scenery is still awesome.

 

[Kento-Moto]

The company was top notch! ( even if this guy does ride a beemer )

 

[Kento-Moto]
