Easy one for me, our Rodriguez tandem. Exactly 38 years ago today, my wife and I set out on our honeymoon ride (yesterday was our anniversary) which covered the length of State Route 49 through California’s Gold Country. We had front lowriders with panniers and a rack top bag for our clothes and essentials as we stayed entirely within historic hotels and inns….the numerous deep river canyons we bisected on the route each day left us in want of hot tubs and saunas!

A few updates and touch ups over the years but this beauty is still a gem to ride. We have also taken the Rodriguez on a couple California Eroicas, Pacific Northwest Tandem Rally, camping trips, and some centuries as well.
