Title: Apres Rally Rides
Post by: Klavdy on May 11, 2013, 10:12:12 PM
Looking forward to this upcoming event, even getting routes planned and information on when those beautiful California mountain passes will re-open  (http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/roadinfo/clsdlst.htm)
Hwy 36 is definitely on the list, so too are those Quincy/Oroville roads, Hwy 245, the list goes on.
No set route, just meander North then South on the wriggly lines.
So looking forward to this.

Hey Klavdy.  Donna and I have all of their companion maps.  You saw the Norcal map at the rally in Hayfork.  They are expensive but well worth it.  They are made of plastic and very durable, great for folding up to fit the map pocket in a tank bag.  They show a lot of roads that you would miss on a regular map.  I have used them to plan many road trips and wouldn't think of leaving home without them.
