We had 24 bikes in our group as we departed Devil Mountain on Sunday. We jumped on Hwy 4 headed North to the Antioch bridge, and after a not so brief discussion with the toll taker, up Hwy 160 to Isleton. From Isleton we continued North on 160 for a few miles turning off the Hwy at Courtland and taking Netherlands Rd up to Jefferson and into West Sacramento for our comfort stop.
The weather was forecast to be mostly sunny, but our ride so far had all been under overcast skies. There were some wet spots on the road as it had rained early in the morning but aside from those few spots the roads were mostly dry.
After refueling the bikes we headed North again on Jefferson making a left on Capitol Ave and then North again onto Harbor and then Old River Rd. We followed the river up to I-5 where the road turns into County Rd 22 and paralleled I-5 to Winters and past on Hwy 16 which took us all the way to Capay and the Road Trip Bar & Grill. There was ample parking in the back and after we all got parked we stood in the parking lot for the Ride Rewards ticket drawing. Jim G. was the big winner of the McGuire's gift card. The sun had finally come out and we welcomed the warmth.
After the drawing we headed inside for some good food. The service was a little slow, but was very friendly. No one was in a big hurry so it wasn't a problem.
Once we'd all eaten we headed for home to catch the last of the Super Bowl game. We rode back on Hwy 16 to 505 to 80 to 680 and finally home.
Another great day with Mt Diablo HOG, riding and having lunch with friends.
We hope to see YOU on our next ride.
