Congrats!!
PP is a Great ride!
I did it several years ago (once on a C-10, and once in a Model T Ford)...
(When I did it, it was gravel roads on the upper sections. Is it all blacktop now?)
If I get a chance, I may do it again someday! (C-14 or Model T)
PS: Try Mt Evans. It is a bit higher than PP....
Ride safe, Ted
Has anyone else (reading this discussion), rode up PP?
I can't imagine doing the gravel part on a Goldwing. Tight corners and loose/deep pockets of gravel on such a big bike would induce major pucker factors. I had a 1800 GL for a couple of years, great over the road bike that handled better than any bike it's size has the right to! At the time I only had one bike and it just didn't fit my needs for a daily bike. Should have kept it and added a sport or naked for the day to day stuff.
I did it in 2000 on my 1982 GPz1100 and 2 more times on my 2006 C10. The last time, they were paving the road to the top. We were following the pilot truck, I missed a shift and managed to drop the bike on a hairpin, tying up traffic for at least 15 minutes. Broke my right footpeg mount and had to ride back to NY with an 8mm bolt for a footpeg. Talk about being embarrassed!
