Bigfish and Littlefish home safe. Uneventful ride home.

A big thank you to Joe for hosting and setting up all the arrangements. Cornilias was awesome again as usual with leading the group rides and providing self guided tour maps. Wonderful people as always. Great to meet some of the norther group.

Opps- forgot to mention Mr. Duck. He kept a watchful eye on Me and the Miss to make sure we didn't loose the group. Thanks Don... we really appreciate you!

No issues, performance awards, etc. on the ride home

A great weekend, Thanks Joe and Juniata for consolidating the dinner plans at both restaurants and organizing The Comfort Inn rates etc.,

Also big thanks to Don and Cornelius for planning Friday's So Cal to Oakhurst ride and the loop on Saturday.

Back home at 3:30 Sunday afternoon. Chilly 37 at Tehachapi. Mojave's temp and wind speed were both in the 40s.

 

Thanks Joe for organizing and thanks to all who kept track of the back of the pack riders.

I was home Sunday. Had an early visit to Glacier Point which opened Sat. Thanks Brian for the intel; the road was great and it was only a little cold. No one there. Truly stunning spot.

 

Thor that's a bummer about Mary-Anna's tire. It was good to see you.

After leaving late, taking a wrong turn, collecting LBump on his Duc then and being collected by Joe his KTM, we made it to the bridge and the rest of the group:

Yosemite falls left, Vernal and Nevada falls right. Ratty old valley in between. iPhone pano had trouble with the light but I still like this one.

A great trip I'd been looking forward to all winter.
