Camping photos

Was getting older and had not slept in a tent for 30 years!

Cambria California 2013 at Horizons Unlimited event.

As a kid, camped with family, the "Y" and with friends. There were times the campout was a result of wanting to go dirt biking away from the crowd.

When in my 20's sometimes backpacked into the wilderness to get away from the noise.

Did not ride a motorcycle or camp in a tent for 25 years.

In 2007 bought another bike after working with people that are Motorcyclists. (some rode dirt, street, & even a Harley or 2)

I was looking for a Honda XR400, but this was available.

A friend talked me into attending the "event" in Cambria.

After digging out old camp gear, I figured a room at a local hotel would be my failsafe.

The first night with the old tent and bag wasn't too bad, so I stayed and had a good time.

Learned some things about tires, modern camping gear, and most importantly myself.

Still enjoy riding to get out of town and spend time outdoors under the stars.
