Great fun on the tour today. Started in Healdsburg, stopped briefly at Chateu Montelena, on to the Sharpsteen Museum, then on to Brad and Anette Lusk’s niece’s winery - Brian Arden winery where we had a great tasting. Then on to the crown jewel of the tour, a private experience at Jack Sharpsteen’s shop and antique car collection. Simply amazing.
Great roads and a great time was had by all. On to Cazerdra tomorrow. More then.
Pics are In Reverse order.
Thanks to Steven Chase for putting all this together.

Re: Golden gate tour part 2 - Healdsburg to Calistoga
Today was the final day of the tour. This is the first time in over 50+ years of touring I've been able to tour in Marin County. Absolutely beautiful scenery. I've never used a Ruckstell so much. We traveled through miles of Redwood forests, and for those who wondered about the 18% grade, it was a piece of cake. I used low pedal for about 1/4 mile of it, and Ruckstell for the rest.
For those of you who didn't come, you missed a very good well planned tour.

Hey, Larry I thought I recognized that blue ball cap... I heard about and sure wanted to go but just had too much prep work going on for the Montana 500 race coming up.
Seems like that event might be interesting to you since you're the Original Model T Larry? Maybe come along sometime? You'd have to disconnect that Rux though...
