Thanks again Jim. Interesting to hear your history at the early shows. Very cool.
Monday, 4/22/24 THE ONE MOTORCYCLE SHOW JOURNEY COMES TO AN END
A little more on Sunday. After packing and loading some stuff for the trip home we went for a wonderful hike leaving at 5 PM. Once again Portland delivers. It was beautiful lush greenery the whole time we hiked. Sarah and Troy (and Huxley) had me drive their Tesla there and back. This was a first for me driving a Tesla. Troy switched it to self-driving mode on the way there. As we got close there was a switchback type turn. The car miscalculated and had to be manually reversed and driven around this corner. Was an interesting experience driving this thing.
In the morning a little after 6 AM we pulled out for the drive home.
Going this direction the views of Mount Shasta are even better. And last for a long time.
We chose not to stop in our city.
And just a short while later, after dropping off Julian's bike at his house it was back to home sweet home.
Oh yes, if someone finds a trailer vent on I5 N somewhere between Livermore and Portland, will you please just drop it off on my porch? Thank you.
It would look something like this one that is ready to fall off also due to rotted plastic rivets.
Still need to go out and wash the bug splatter and dirt off the truck. Maybe today.
All in all, this was a wonderful journey to Portland and back. A bit too much driving though. So will we do it again next year?
