Thanks for the articles. One thing I didn’t see in either was the idea of “tanking up” your body at the start. I learned this from hiking. You wouldn’t start on a long ride with an empty tank of gas and you need to do the same thing with your body. Before I do a long hike I drink a liter of fluid just before I start. It makes the whole day go better.
Thanks for the great ride! More inspiration for me to make retirement my full-time occupation sooner.
Just browsing the site and see that you guys are going on a ride tomorrow, May 3rd? Can I join in? Are semi-retired club members welcome?

FYI – The AMCA (Antique Motorcycle Club of America) will be out there Friday-Sunday. I will either join this ride or trailer my ’56 for the AMCA ride.
Wow! What a trip! My first ever and it couldn’t have turned out any better. Thanks Tom and Chris for leading me out there, to everyone for making sure I made the turns, and thanks to Larry for leading me and Dave back home without a single mile of freeway. I burned almost the entire tank of gas. (Do I get credit for the extra miles??) That 18% grade uphill road was almost beyond belief. I will definitely be doing more trips with the group.
Hello all – I am new to the group and this will be my first outing. I am signed up to camp and ride from Irv Seeavers on Friday morning. I just looked up the camping rules and you are allowed 8 people per site so if we have 2 sites then 16 is the max. Each site accommodates trailers up to 21 feet so there should be plenty of parking. Here is the link to the camping.
