Here's the Route, http://g.co/maps/awyfp, I had planned out when I left.
I wanted to do Yosemite, Lassen, Shasta, the Redwoods, Hwy 1, the coast, and home in 5 days or less.
I did not make a single hotel reservation until the day before I left, as I was worried about snow in October and wanted to be flexible if I came across a closed off road or conditions unbecoming to a noob.
I had posted this on another site and thought I would share since I recently found XJrider.
10/22
Left Napa at 4pm Saturday
Taking after a buddy with my "while riding photo attempts"...
Made it about 70 miles to Lodi before stopping for a break and a quick Bike Wash
Wished I had stopped in Angel's Camp and taken a picture of the sign atleast, or the fairgrounds, home of the Frog Jumping competition!
But I didn't.
I did Stop again at sunset on New Melones bridge. Nice lake, really tall bridge, wouldn't want to jump off of it.
Got a room at the Royal Carriage, #1 hotel by tripadvisor and AAA... 80 bux for my own cottage.
Went to the local hotspot and watched the end of the World Series, also the oldest bar in town.
Forgot my cash so they put me to work :grins:
But I got a steak out of it... :kudos:
Biker sign
Sleepy Little town
Can't wait for day two.
Getting up bright and early and heading out. Stopping for breakfast before Yosemite, spending the day, then back out the other side and up to Lake Tahoe
