    As people around the world watch this, take note. This too is California. This is the Sierra Nevada mountain range. Not the biggest in North America, but many of us feel it is the geandest. Thank you for visiting my home.

    Now you're in my neck of the woods, Juan. I go target shooting in the woods just around the bend from that first pullout at Yuba pass. If you saw the yellow diamond sign, "beware of Dead Man's Curves" sign near Bassetts or over near Satley, those were put up by my dad and his friends years back, after too many bikers were dying there every year.
    The Buckhorn is back in business again, after being closed a couple years when the owner passed away. Sierra City has been changing these last years, as too many older residents have passed on. We lost a historical building to fire on 49 a couple years back as well.
    But the river abides, and the seasons continue. Loved the video.

Kinda eerie your motorcycle ride was on the same day that journalist Davey Johnson was last heard from during his ride to the south, after he stopped along the Mokulumne River. It has been reported he was in the river. Your comment at 6:04 was absolutely spot on. "Stay out of the water here in the mountains".

    Beautiful filming. Thanks, Juan. Showing us where this water comes from is excellent;I, like many others, really don't realize where our water really comes from. Perhaps, it is sad to realize that most of this water eventually winds up in the Sacramento Delta, where it is divied-up, with some going through the pumping system to be sent to Southern California via canal. The water is pumped out of the Delta, goes by canal to the San Luis Dam , then sent onwards to Southern California, again via canal. When the canal reaches the Grapevine, large pipes are used to pump the water up and over the GGrapevine. Once on top, the gravity again takes hold and the water continues its journey to water SoCal's green lawns. It's a sad fact, but true, some of the beautiful water seen in the Yuba watershed will eventually make it to SoCal, to be used for ?
    Thanks again, Juan. Your videos are always appreciated for their objectivity, as well as their artistry.

    Your bike reminds me of my old '94 CBR600F2, because of the colors - it was white, black with a little bit of red in it. Loved that bike. Owned it a bit over 7 years after buying it brand new (first new machine I had ever bought before). Put 13k miles on it the 1st 5 years in MA ... then when I moved out West and lived in Phoenix and Livermore for 2 years, I put 25k on it! Had a lot more favorable weather to ride out there than back here, that's for sure! I could never put those kinds of miles on a bike that style today - even in my 20's, that thing would make me stop and take many breaks, and that was considered a comfy bike as far as sport bikes go.😊

    I like it. Break out the road tyres for a change. The roads look sweet and the scenery sweeter. Reminds me of the kawarau river here in nz although it’s in a deeper gorge, but road follows it for a while. Same gold mining country and snow melt and pines mixed with our native beach. You’d enjoy a tour around our South Island. Be like a home away from home without the big open spaces or deserts. Pity American don’t fly LA to AK? Family holiday must see. ANZ orders for 787-10 to replace their 777-200s. Aiming to fly direct to NY from AK. 14200k non stop. Makes the pacific crossing to California seem like a short hop! Nice rendition of a LZ classic.

      I disagree about the singer being off key. There were a couple of very brief and minor "pitchy" moments, but he was almost note for note with Robert Plant's original recording. I know because I have everything Led Zeppelin ever recorded, including interviews. I think that this is the prettiest cover version of "Goin' to California" that I've ever heard.
