Update

Sorry I have not kept this blog updated, but between all the activities associated with S2KDays in Westlake Village, CA, and my lack of sleep, plus the difficulty of uploading pics from my camera (just resolved,) I just put this task aside. I promise, tomorrow on my stop in Dodge City, Kansas, I will try to at least partially catch up.

I am now in Montrose, CO, and will be driving to Dodge City, KS, tomorrow. (Tuesday)

What a trip!

S2KDays 2018 - Days 7 & 8

Arrived at the Hyatt Regency in Westlake Village, CA, mid-afternoon on Saturday. Rested up Saturday. Today I washed the car and helped the event organizers prepare the "goody" bags, attended the welcome reception, and I just returned from dinner across the street. Tomorrow starts the meet drives, with a 270 mile drive planned, starting at 8:30 AM. I volunteered to be the drive leader for the more spirited group, so it should be a fun day. We end the day in Ventura to watch the sun set over the Pacific. If I get any good pics, I will post them.

This is the arrival GPS reading:




I will probably be adding another 500 miles or so on our planned drives, so I  have scheduled an oil change on Tuesday, when I will be riding with one of the locals on our trip to the Honda Museum in Torrence.

In spite of the issue with the belt tensioner, this has been a great trip so far!

Oh, California freeways suck! DC traffic pales in comparison.
