Very cool pictures Outrider
WC, that's another great piece I hope to see in person. At this point my trip south is on, so I will likely show up at your shop sometime Firday the 24th. I'll leave Yosemite pretty early in the morning for LA. Since I don't know when you might read this I'll be giving you a call to make sure the date & time is ok to show up and hang around.
CALIFORNIA TRAVEL QUESTION
It's been a long time since I've been anywhere in northern or central Calif. I'm going to be driving from Yosemite down to LA, to WC's shop in Reseda.
The maps are advising me to drop down to Fresno, hit 99 and take it to Bakersfield, then stay on 99 until it intersects with I-5. That sounds like the slow way, since I remember 99 having a bunch of lights and running through small towns.
so I’m wondering if some of you in that general neck of the woods can advise a different route, like cutting over to I-5 somewhere around Fresno or below?
Thanks, JD
