The start on Hwy 4 left me feeling a bit flat, but....
The ride was great! :yahoo:
Beautiful day in the mountains. Thanks to Madmike, Puppychow, Bugnatr, Bluestreek, Borkerfork, and Sacramento Mike for a great January day in the high country.

I'll be looking at my pics pretty soon and will put any good ones (if there are any good ones) onto the RR thread, if there is one, or else here. Great day. I peeled off in Placerville when I saw you guys were going up 49, so didn't get a chance to say thanks and 'bye. Good seeing everybody again. So weird seeing all the frozen lakes with no snow on them. Looked like hockey rinks.
Sam had a flat, is what he's talking about. Then we saw Mad Mike pulled over, and like a damn fool, he'd parked right on top of a big pool of gasoline! Of ALL the places in that big parking lot he could have parked. . . Luckily, neither "incident" turned out to be all THAT bad. At least for me.

Steve and I came back US50, but took a quick detour to shoe Bugnator the way to Cold Springs Rd, the fastest way back to Auburn. When you get your radio, you'll know all this cool stuff.

Made it home without ant forest rat sightings. Thanks boys, it was a good ride.

Madmike and I found not one, or two or three (we saw earlier jumping fences and running across the road), then a whole freaking herd of Forest Rats on Fiddletown Road. There were at least 7 or 8 in that herd!

Those in snowy Seattle are waiting for a ride report. Heck 34 degrees - were I live that was the high today.
Hope you all had a great ride.

What a difference a year makes. Last year at this time, the Sierra passes could be ridden. This year they have been shut down since October. Great for the skiers., but fun to look back at this ride.
