Another great ride in the State of Jefferson (Google that if you don't know about it!). I slipped out of Renee and Kevin's hideaway compound early to try to beat the heat and made my way to Catherine's Cafe - a GREAT breakfast diner in McArthur, CA. My meal was cooked to perfection by Catherine herself!
Then I got some additional supplies at Ray's Market in Fall River Mills before peeling off from Hwy 289 onto Cassell-Fall River Road toward Cassell. More climbing, more sweating, but thank goodness, more sweet views and no traffic.
I crossed the Pacific Crest Trail a couple of miles before the end of my ride...just had to snap a shot to memorialize hiking through this section in 2006. That's starting to be a long time ago.
I am really enjoying this hopscotch bike tour, getting into a rhythm of riding for a few hours, resting, getting clean, eating well, and walking for an hour or so. And resting, did I mention resting? I pulled into a clean, affordable PG&E campground right across the road from the Cassell Post Office, which is the only building in Cassell, and right next to Hat Creek.
Peace, Love, and Tiny Tent Time,
Jim
