Road trip over the Sierras in my Mineral Grey X1
So I had the day off, two cameras with fully charged batteries and a full tank in the X1. Time to hit one of my more favorite highways in California, Highway 70, which follows the Feather River through the mountains. It was the Western Pacific Railroads competing route against the Southern Pacific Donner Pass. I used to hit this all the time on my motorbike, but those days are long passed. Enjoy the pics and consider the road if you are ever out this way.

Still more spectacular pictures--thanks for posting them.
Your pictures helped sustain me through the long wait for my own mineral gray X1. Now that it's here, your pictures are making me feel guilty that I don't have anything more exciting to offer it than the mostly flat, straight roads of central Indiana! |
