Some friends and I went on a Yosemite camping adventure this last weekend. We did our research and mapped it such that we hit one awesome motorcycle road after another (for the most part). Here is a map: Yosemite Adventure
Day 1
Lefty was with us for the first day, to point E on the map. Again, really fun riding with him, John is a great guy and a great rider.
Overlooking the bay area from Mount Hamilton. You can see the valley is covered in fog. The first several miles of our trip were wet and foggy, but then when we gained altitude, we found ourselves above it all, dry and warm, with great roads ahead of us.
Stopping to take a drink and get our bearings on HWY 130

Day 2
We stayed at my in-laws' cabin near point E on the map. This is us packing up for the next leg and camping in Yosemite.
The very first road we took, Ward's Ferry, was originally just a way to get from the cabin to our first planned road, but it turned out to be an unexpected gem! Very nice for a goat trail, all but deserted, fun, and amazing views. There is a bridge in the middle with this view.
Apparently the bridge is a party spot. I felt a bond with a fellow Suicidal Tendencies fan who had been here.
After some great roads, we ate lunch here at Cherry Lake, point G on the map
