One of my favorite day rides is to go from my house in Chico, scoot up to Yreka and grab Hwy 96 toward Willow Creek, then back to Weaverville down to Hwy 36, then back down to Chico. It's a fantastic 10 hours in the saddle, experiencing everything from wide sweepers to tight, technical stuff. Plus, there are endless variants to throw into the loop, so you can ride the area every weekend and not do the same ride twice. 2 1 ’70 Yamaha 125 Enduro; ’75 Honda CB360T; ’81 Yamaha XS650SH; ’82 Honda GL650 Silver Wing Interstate; ’82 Suzuki GS650L; ’87 Yamaha Virago 535; ’87 Yamaha FJ1200; ’96 Honda ST1100; ’99 Yamaha V-Star Classic; ’00 Suzuki SV650; ’07 BMW K1200GT; ’12 Suzuki DR200; ’15 Yamaha FJ-09.

Maybe I'm mistaken. How about this compromise: You win, but have to re-issue the same challenge? Personally, I like the challenge, and I’m interested to see what else gets posted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member keithu Posted June 14, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted June 14, 2020 Next target: your bike with a steam locomotive. It can be in use or on static display, either works. Important: electric or diesel-powered replicas of steam locomotives don't count. It must currently be or have at one time been motivated by steam.

nhchris Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) Good Ole Col.Teague at the Mt Washing Cog Railway in NH. (He's retired.) I would have shot you a working steamer but like a lot of stuff the Cog is closed due to Covid.
