Return from Reno
I went to Street Vibrations in Reno last week. It was a nice cool ride up and stayed with Ted and Mary Ellen. The weather was really cool. I went to downtown Reno where they set up the gig. Big disapointment. No bikes on the street. They set up parking lots and structures for parking and closed off a number of streets for vendors. It is all about selling the usual shit. No cruising around or checking out bikes. Not worth the trip.
I rode over to Hollister on Friday. I rode US50 from Carson City to the end in Sacramento then down I5 to 152/156 into town. I stayed at Best Western. Fair place. I checked out Johnny's downtown and returned to the room after a lousy dinner. During the night it began to rain.
I left at 7:45 am in the rain and rode back to I5. It rained the first hour but was ok until I got to Grape Vine. From there to Glendale it was rain, hail and sleet. I saw at least 6 accidents on the road including a big rig that jackknifed. Scarey ride all the way. I got home at 3:30 exhausted.
Tough trip of 1274 miles. Not worth a second look
