But here’s what I was after this morning, proof of my having passed by San Quentin Prison. 👍 Some-a-youse might remember I passed Folsom not long ago as well, and posted a pic somewhere, of the Johnny Cash Trail. I think Johnny Cash is trying to communicate with me, man!!! 🙄😎😁


Obviously, I made it back across, to San Rafael, lol, fixing to bite a Whopper now. 😘
Wonderful trip on your own, but with the wealth of knowledge, both local and general on this site, consider announcing your trip here before you leave. You'll be amazed at how many local riders will meet up with you, give you tips on your route during planning stages, buy you a beer, meet up for a meal, even harbor pilot you through unknown areas, bypassing the worst, riding the best, plus the great feeling of making a new friend.

For me, the very best thing thing about this forum, personally meeting a great group of people in several states.

We're attracted first by the bikes, then the rides, but at the end, it's about the people.

BTW, I was on that exact path on my TdMIL 2019. It had been a couple of years since I last rode with @davester, @gaucho777. I met both of them by announcing I was going to be in the Bay Area a year or so before. @73StellaSX76 lives in Redwood City, where I came from prior to moving to Oregon, and I got to spend time riding with him as well. I caught up with @djkashuba later the next day and was escorted through the Russian River for a coupla dozen miles.
