For years my old man and I used to go to the Redwood Run up by Garberville, CA on the 47 Knucklehead. We started in 1985 and the last time we went was about 1997. Most of the time after the run was over we went to Shelter Cove to camp for a couple of days. Here are some photos of those old times.

Knucklehead Lineup - Many of these bikes rode up to the Redwood Run
from southern California.

There was always great music at the Redwood Run
It reminded me of the Hippie Music festivals back in the '60s.
