Day 14 What's a good pick up line to a hot girl from Belarus? We woke up in Red Bluff, California. Beautiful day, Hot and Sunny, just perfect weather. We were to ride about an hour to Lassen volcanic park. We got there about 11:30 and it was absolutely gorgeous. A totally cool place, though out of hot dogs. The peak was at about 8,511 feet, which we climbed from about 3,000 feet at the base. I also got great pictures of one of the lakes there called Lake Hele...

Day 13 Al needs new jokes or I really will murder him in his sleep... We woke up to (you guessed it) RAIN! REALLY? sigh... Thankfull it was on it's way out. Bout time too. My clothes and shoes were not fully dry from the previous raining. I actually even dreamt of snow last night. Not JUST snow but riding our motorbikes through snow. I kid you not. This weather is wearing on not only me but my mind too. We rode south down the coast, and WOW, the rain sto...

Day 12 I might just kill Al in his sleep We woke up to sun. Sadly we didnt know that the sun was only going to be around for 1 hour today. But what a fun hour it was. We set our course South towards California, and rode ALL DAY in rain. UGH! Was a great ride, despite the rain. the Pacific coast is mighty and huge, cold, grey, and today was rough and waves her crashing about all the rocks and boulders. We need warmth and sun, and plenty of it Anyone know where...

Cook your shoe on potato! Day 11 Awoke in Washington state today to go meet Al. No rain on the radar (for now) although no sun either, but that's OK. So I rode to the bike shop and Al arrived EVENTUALLY. It seems his plane circled the Seattle airport 50x or something. But no worries, was still no rain. Al arrived, it was good to see him, it wasnt good however to see his middle finger sticking up in the back of the cab he was in. Oh, that jokester. We finally ...

Do you like your feet rubbed? GRUMBLE! That wasnt me, that was the dog! Day 10 Its raining in Seattle. I'm guessing it rains in Seattle more days then it doesnt. Or at least that's how the story goes. it was a wet 157 miles today. Mostly wet, on and off rain. And funny how my rain gear isnt really 100% waterproof. Watching all my gear drying in various parts of the motel room really takes me back to those rainy endless days in Canada last year. Today was rath...
