I rode up to Vegas for the holiday weekend with 4 others, thought I'd share some photos of some of the eerie places in between.

Gotta love the California deserts:

What do you call a dry lake bed that isn't dry? This would be a fun spot for going muddin'.

This is Amboy, CA, along the old route 66. Time stopped here in 1963.

Riding through Joshua Tree National Preserve....

Stopped by to visit CFI's house but he wasn't home. I guess you can't call it a roof leak if it never rains...

Also rented a boat and cruised up the Colorado river and hiked up to some of the hot springs below the Hoover Dam.

700 miles total, 12 hours of riding, damn my butt is sore.

Looks like a nice ride. And your pink jacket in the second photo really suits you well.

Nice ride.

Crusin' the Colorado is better than being in the casinos.

Always liked the desert.

Yeah, I was more impressed by the ride out to Vegas, than Vegas itself.
