Greetings from Eldorado County. I have left the Ride for the Day. Time to head home and check my Emails and the Web, and prepare for the Arrival Ceremony in Old Sacramento.

I noticed the Banner on the Ride Web Page…..Rider arrived Kyburz Dump 4:42- Departed 4:44. The site is off HWY 50 this side of the community of Kyburz. Actually a former Dump buried under landfill from the one of the landslides on the highway, and surrounded by cedars and pines. The north canyon wall overshadows it. A nice shaded glade. In the late afternoon it was transformed into a Ride Relay Station.

Donnie set up a BBQ and Incoming and Outgoing Riders and Radio Net people showed up and enjoyed a meal before taking off. A nice treat. After meals and experiences were exchanged, the mail arrived and then departed and the Ride Captain Rich Tatman, Riders, Trucks, trailers and horses disappeared on the road and Donnie was left with the leftovers and the dishes to clean. Thank you Donnie. California has a long way to go to catch up with Nebraska, even Nevada, on Ride Camps, but we are working at it.
