You guys got your SNOW tires with you ? The weather don't look good for Tahoe City CA area for Thur.
Are you guys changing you route ? Carson City NV weather looks a lot better.
I don't know if you are aware of the wildfire near 191, looks like a big one. Hannagan Meadow also was evacuated.

Interesting ride today. I saw rain, hail, snow, Tony ride his bike thru a tree, a turkey standing in the middle of the road, a wolf run accross the road in front of me and a rock slide actually happen (barely missed it). Made it to Susanville cold and tired. Dave needs a new back tire. In lite of this and the weather at Lake Tahoe, we will be heading to Reno for a tire change then directly to Bishop.

It looks like our favorite road is going to be TOAST before long.

Sounds like some bad news back home. Had a relatively short and uneventful day today straight down 395. Dave got new rubber all around at Chester's in Reno. Saw some sprinkles and light snow flurries on the way to Bishop. Altitudes were over 8000 ft, but not as cold as yesterday. Stayed in the rain suits all day again mainly due to temps. Really looking forward to putting those away. Got to the hotel around 5PM and knocked some of the grime off the bikes. Temp was in the mid 60s in Bishop, really felt good. Looking forward to those high temps in Death Valley tomorrow. Over 400 miles planned to get to Needles.
