Motocross – Day 2

Just before I went to bed last night I went out into the kitchen and found Joe (host’s father) had made a blueberry pie. He offered me some and I politely declined as I had earlier seen the state of the oven and the fact that he was sitting at the table with a cat […]

Mad Motocross

I posted the last blog and headed back up to the campsite and packed up. Brenda and Guy told me that they were going to follow me to the next town where we could all have breakfast together. Off we went and I was shouted (they wouldn’t take my money) a great cooked breakfast and […]

The Mayors family

I am writing this blog sitting outside a recreation centre in an RV Park so I can get an internet connection. Hands are that cold that I can hardly type. I spent my last night in Issaquah having dinner with Elizabeth and Earl. I had asked Elizabeth if it was possible to get Earl back […]

At the end of my last blog I had a great camp until the rain came (around 4:00am). I wake up to the sound of rain and its still very dark outside – it must have been raining for some time as I could see a bit of water laying on then ground sheet in […]

Ghetto Airbnb

I am writing this blog sitting in front of an antique fan in a room without a light – luckily I have my tent light which is a ripper. I am in a small town called Gridley which is about 100klms north of Sacramento. The outside temperature is still 36 degrees – I had booked […]

All about Fred

I am currently in a small city called Hayward which is just 43klms south of San Francisco. I was in no rush to leave my airbnb at Prunedale as the hosts were great. Before I left I went to the nearest Post Office at Castroville to send my Superbike souvenirs home. On arrival it was […]

Race Time

*I may have forgot to send out the email re blog update for my last blog so check before you read this one. I leave my luxurious Hotel as late as I can – I get up the road and find about 15 motels that would have been half the price! I stop off at […]
