Paul's top five


Best Restaurant: Spokan, the setting was magnificent and the food great.

Best Town: Again Spokan. There is nothing like a personal touch to help appreciate a town. If we had ridden in on the highway stayed overnight and rode out on the highway would we have really appreciated what Spokan had to offer? Thanks to Hugh for the contacts and Annne and Michael for the personal touch.

Best Ride: Tough one there were so many. The Big Sur is the obvious top ride. But coming out of Sequoia National Park and dropping about 8000 feet in an hour in second gear. But I could have mentioned 20 rides.

Most Memorable Occasion: Riding a cruis er bike in LA on a 6-8 lane freeway in the first few minutes of picking up the bikes. For a relatively new black top rider it was mind bogling.

Most Lasting Memory: The frequent riding through mountains with snow on the ground and a post card view at every turn. Also the ride into Peachtown in neutral and running low on fuel. 25 miles down hill!
