Today is the day we started riding Hwy 89, which we will be riding until at least the south end of Lake Tahoe.
While we were in Mt. Shasta, we had at least six people tell us to be careful on this road...
Often, the white line on the edge of the road is the shoulder, about 6 inches wide!
Other times, there is plenty of room. We had about a twenty mile section that had loose gravel to the right of the white line and abraded road surface on the left, so the only safe, smooth place to ride was on the line... It was fun in an odd way. Vehicles have given us plenty of room when they were able to.
We stopped in McCloud for treats and to check out the town. We visited with a couple of locals while we had coffee / tea and thought it was a really nice town.
We took a side route along the McCloud River that took us away from the highway.
