The Ride is on


Well the alarm worked and after a nice breakfast and a loving farewell from my Bea I set out on the big adventure.
Leaving at 5:45 Of course I hit LA traffic but made it fine. Rode all the way hard and fast to Yreka in Northern CA. Arrived at 4:30 and checked into my 4 Seasons i.e. The Motel 6. Cleaned my bike a bit and now am going out to dinner at the Buffalo Diner next doors for a light supper.

The ride was great, especially the last 100 miles past the majestic Mt Shasta, Shasta Lake various canyons without a name. It is quite Alpine here with pines and very peaceful so I should get a good night's rest before heading out around 5:30 tomorrow morning. My Goal tomorrow is Bellingham WA and the on to BC on Saturday.
Total Miles today 691.6 and my "derrier" says Thanks a lot!
