• Old Spanish Trail Rally Day 1

    20. toukokuuta 2021, Yhdysvallat ⋅ 🌧 48 °F

    After laundry, I went to the Glendale HD to register for the Old Spanish Trail HOG Touring Rally. Once I got back to the room, my foot and ankle were pretty sore, so I didn't go back for the dinner. I still had food in the room anyway.

    This morning, I headed into Angeles National Forest. I got about 20 miles in and saw the dreaded sign, "Road Closed Ahead." About that time, a group of bikers was coming down the mountain and gave me the turn around signal. So I did and met up with them at the bottom. They were also on the rally. The lead was a nice guy named Ben from a California HOG Chapter, and he let me jump in with them.

    We're now back on the route and have stopped at Arrowhead Lake for lunch. Everything up here looks like a dime store window version of Bavaria. Sad compared to the real thing, but I guess the folks here think it's cool.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Day 61 mileage: 0 (total still 14137.4)
