A visit to Bodie Historic Ghost Town at 8300 ft. This place was all about gold, and a lot of it.
10,000 people once lived here, fascinating slice of history

To reach Bodie, we ride several miles of hard pack

We call this section of road 'the racetrack', it's brand new pavement for about 8 miles & 0 traffic! Smooth!

What great fun running through the Sierra Nevada Mountains... The riders are all holding up fingers of how many Pashnit Tours they have been on!

Strikingly awesome countryside and what fantastic roads. I went to Yosemite about 20 years ago, but unfortunately I did it in a hire car from San Fran. in the rain Would love to do all that area on a bike. From the number of multiple trips people do with you you must be doing it right!

RE: Pashnit Rides the Sierra Nevada - Pics - BikerBoy - 18-06-2012
Hey Tim, great shots mate!! Don't bother sending my order.....after seeing these shots I'll come and pick it up and take the long way home

RE: Pashnit Rides the Sierra Nevada - Pics - pan - 19-06-2012
Tim, can you put together a "package" for people from Australia to come for a week or two?
RE: Pashnit Rides the Sierra Nevada - Pics - garbo - 19-06-2012
G'day Tim, I will be in Yosemite next month for a few days in a caddy between Las Vegas and San Fran. Maybe I should have hired a bike instead
. Great photos mate. Will be in contact soon to order a set of throttlemeisters. Mark
