Three of us did about 300 roundtrip miles up to Chico for lunch at Speedy Burrito. Great Mex food. Made a visit to the Bidwell Mansion on the Chico State grounds and a quick stop at a trailer park that the Ozz's called home thirty some years ago. Trailer is gone but fond memories still remain. Something about shopping carts left on the RR tracks. :whistle:

Made our way back home via some rough, dirty semi snow lined back roads and stretched our legs at Bullards Bar Dam, then on to Hwy 49 thru Auburn, where OZZ 2 headed home down the Interstate.

Ozz and I continued down 49 to hit one of our favorite twisties, Salmon Falls Rd.

Was another great day of riding, save Bosshounds mishap prior to kickoff. Our thoughts were with ya today Boss wish things didn't go as they did.

It was cool seeing the old stomping grounds after 40 years. Everything seemed so much bigger back than, funny how that works. Sorry to drag you along down memory lane Russ.

Don't worry Boss, you will be tearing up the twisties in no time. Glad your nephew showed you a good time and got your mind of your troubles for a while.

Just wasent the same without you today.
 
Nice pics, as is the norm for you lucky Cali riders!
Hey Bosshound? Glad to hear that you seem to be OK! May I ask what happened? Did you drop the bus? DAYUUM!!
 
Russ: Awesome pix. You're talented with that camera...

Nicely done.

Glad you guys got out and had a great time...wish the "Boss" had been with you...

Yeah, we need to get something planned. If someone can come up with a good route centrally located maybe we can get together soon. Anyone?

Great pics guys, good stomping grounds. Did you ride Oregon Hill Rd on up to Challenge? It's right on the west side of Boullards Bar Dam, first paved road going north. Leads to La Porte Rd.
 
I sit here depressed looking at those pics... At the time of this post it is -24, Yes that is NEGATIVE -24 degrees F in my neck of the woods in Minnesota. Add the current wind chill factor (-47) ??? Can't wait for busa weather! NICE PICS!!
