Welcome to the California chapter of the Honda Sport Touring Association (HSTA)

California HSTA is a motorcycle Sport-Touring club open to all brands (despite the historical reference to Honda in our name).  Our emphasis is on responsible, safe, sport-touring -- regardless of the type of bike you own.  Responsible means wearing appropriate safety gear, keeping your bike in good running condition, riding courteously around other vehicles, and maintaining reasonable speed (taking into account traffic, weather, road conditions, and especially, rider ability).  We may ride briskly at times, but have no illusions about what's appropriate for public roadways versus the track...

We host a variety of rides through the year, including day trips, weekend trips, and participating in national events with our parent HSTA.  Our rides typically focus on twisty, fun roads with freeways and major highways simply being a means to get to the good twisty roads.  While we typically stop for breaks and perhaps meals, we endeavor to demonstrate a good image and safe riding habits by discouraging consumption of any alcohol while riding (bars are typically NOT our destination).

If you'd like more information about CalHSTA, please see "About CalHSTA."  Additional information about HSTA benefits in general can be found in our Library section.  Joining is as simple as filling out the Application Form.  additional details and information can be found at our national HSTA website.
