R.I.P. Our FJR Riding Friend
We had four going to the Sacramento area that resulted in the most action shots of the trip...very fun ride:
04FJR and Graciela to Southport
CISCO and Donna to Foresthill, but first to Citrus Heights to get their kewlio kid
Rocknfjr to Rocklin
and Orangevale and Sherri to ...can you guess by my name
04FJR gave the route in another thread and Sherri got some picks. Funny enough, we didn't pull the camera out as we left, but at our first rest so we don't have picks of Mono lake. HIGHLANDER got those for us anyway. Good thing...we missed that part entirely! Bug CISCO to post too...I heard Donna got some good pics of lakes and other neat sights that they can tell you about.
So...N 395 to Topaz Left on 89 to 88 (great pass to get there) and 88 to Mormon Emigrant Trail to 50 to home.
CISCO lead us out of Mammoth and we let him keep it. Great pace. We swapped leads after an impromptu pee break and people boogied to ensure all 4 could get in front of an RV coming toward us on 88. HURRY!!! Get in FRONT of the RV NOW!!!!!!!
So I took the lead for a little way, and handed it to 04FJR since he knew the roads from 88 to 50. Another great leader, he challenged me to keep up and CISCO let me know I smoke my boot sole in one turn...heh...scraped my safety bolt too :lol:
Let's get to the pics...great ride as you'll see:
The rest stop where the camera came out...
o'vale, CISCO, Donna, 04FJR, Graciela, rocknfjr (Gee Gary, I kept hounding you to ride with me eh?)
On the road...formation flying. I loved this...something about the staggered formation is just fun.
Sherri's over the shoulder shot of rocknfjr
A mountain reminiscent of the mountain south of Moab...just smaller and grey instead of red...still neato
More formation flying
Twisties coming up
