From one of the bike trips on Rt66


More recent bike trip rt 66


Barstow Ca rt 66

Could find more from New Mexico--Texas- Ok-and Missouri if I searched my pics enough

Touchdown,, have fun and take lots of pics

 

Going across OK,TX,AZ I would plan on being on road by 7am and off by 3pm. Riding in the heat will take a lot out of you..

 

Rocker ran out of gas in Ohio. Put the bike and wife on his back and carried them to Missouri

 

In my younger days maybe---now only the bike just kidding--wife is the best

 

Looks like be leaving about 5/5/21 Maybe 7am to 7pm road time 8pm to 10pm or more Bar time. I should say enjoying the comments.

 

Early May you will find some cold temps, even in New Mexico and Az--the panhandle part of Texas and then Ok is hit or miss. If you start out at 7am you'll need to bundle up and then by 10 am you'll be down to a long sleeve shirt and vest or sweatshirt----have fun---kinda jealous

 

got will be taking some heated gear along. Look wear I live its cold all of the time so anything will be an improvement.

 

Why push it, you're retired, take your time. At 2,400 mi I'd plan on 4 days. Have fun.

 

I've ridden from Albuquerque to Phoenix quite a few times. The "standard" route is I-40 west to Flagstaff and then south on I-17 into Phoenix. A much more interesting route is south on I-25 from Albuquerque to Socorro. West on US-60 from Socorro all the way to Phoenix. Probably adds an hour and a half to the time, but a way more enjoyable ride.

Good luck on your trip.

 

What ever you decide ENJOY THE TRIP !!!
