[Tanx] 1999 rally

[Karl]

 I am coming, one way or another!  Loneliest Highway across Nevada from Lake Tahoe?  Yeah great idea.
I have some great pics of J and Jay on a Yosemite trip, with Eddy and I from here, but that backyard pic J sent is just asking to be ridden.  Eddy may have better ones from previous west coast trips.
Karl in San Josedaughters are in Fairfield CT and Loretto PA, for reference

 Karl is in San Jose. The picture is a couple of miles from my house in Utah. I'd be happy to host a Western Rally if somebody wants to organize a road trip from the east and west coast. 
I rode my TA across country on US 50 a few years ago and it was more than up to the task. The best part was that I didn't need a map or gps. US 50 goes from Ocean City MD to Sacramento CA. Much more authentic Americana than Route 66.

Karl, please remind me where you live.  That photo is just great.  I’ve never ridden out west and it is near the top of my bucket list.

We are pretty lucky in our little farm/ranch community. Only 13 deaths so far for the entire county and not many hospitalizations. We have a row of mountains between us and Salt Lake City. Seems to be working in our favor.

Two Africa Twins, a Transalp, and a CRF250 Rally in the garage. Everyone is invited to come out and play. You can ride the original Pony Express trail all the way to the Nevada border or go all the way to Sacramento if you want. Right from the house! If you get Eddy out here he can ride the black AT he sold me. 

Moab will be mobbed once the lockdowns end so I suggest either early spring or next year for that. Beat the crowds or wait until they go home.

A couple of buddies and I are meeting in a couple of weeks to start planning a rally out here. I'll keep you posted.

 

This is 3 miles from my house.

Howdy J!

 

Visiting you and Beth (thanks for the Christmas card) is still pretty constant on my radar.  Eddy is hiding out pretty secure up on his mountaintop in Morgan Hill, so may not want to come down yet, but I want to come out and ride with you.

 

My two daughters are out east, in CT and PA so reading your Tanx stuff keeps me thinking of that venue, too.

 

How are you guys doing?  Toys and pets all good?

 

Later,

Karl
