Lake Havasu,AZ?.If that's the place you guys are referring,that's some beutiful country there.Was there years ago.Would love to go back
That's the place! First time I have ever been through there. I was talking to a brother of mine about my ride when I got back. He had a pretty good story. When he got retired from the Corps, he got on his bike and rode for a year. Packed up his stuff, put it in storage, got a tent, and rode. When he was tired, he would pull over on the side of the road and sleep. He said he was going through Lake Havasu, and it was late, dark, and he was tired. So he pulled over on the side of the road near a bridge, chaining his front tire to the guard rail. He went off the road, and found some grass. (In the middle of the desert for those that don't know Lake Havasu). So he pitched his tent and went to sleep. In the morning he said someone was shaking the tent. "What the f--- do you want?" He yelled. "Nothing, but you're on a golf course, and it's gonna get busy!"

He laughed his head off when he told me the story...I thought I would share it.
