Quick Ride to Parkfield, CA

[Smithers]

A collection of pictures of the guys and gal riding out to Parkfield and back. Everyone was surprised to see each other out for the days ride... being how it was Easter and all we had more people show up than anyone expected. Besides me getting hit by a deer (and living to tell), John killing a poor little bird (and living to tell), and Mike getting frisked by a bee (and extremely dramatized) everything went really smoothly!

Taking a break just after the bikes (and all of us) had a chance to warm up. The bugs were just coming out to play as well. Just after this you couldn't help but get plastered by bugs. I had to stop and wipe off my visor because I just couldn't see anymore.

Waiting for the group just before we headed up and across the freeway.

Just pulling into Parkfield to hang out. Time to tell some stories and kick back for a while.

The new addition to the front of the main Parkfield cafe and the new porch are a welcome addition.

And just for fun a couple more pics of the Parkfield corral. I'm sure we'll be visiting again on a day that we can actually all eat there. Being Easter Sunday a lot of us would be in trouble for not eating what our families were preparing back at home. :P
