Just come back from a holiday in the States last week. We were driving from Scottsdale AZ to San Diego CA when we pulled over to get fuel near Yuma, as I was filling the car a bike came pulled up next to me. The rider told me he was on his way back from Dallas Texas! He told me it took him 4 days, was wondering if he was a member on here or if anyone knew him?

The temp in Yuma that day was 120 degress!!

 

I guess not then......

 

Guess not. Alot of members on here. Alot of bikers out there. I would've asked him if I wanted to know.

 

Damn! Four days w/ a back pack that big on your back! I think I'd have stopped by the UPS store. lol

 

Get this man a beer...........

 

wow, god blass his back. 4 days..... Four hours and im hurting

 

it's one of those camping/sport backpacks and has straps that go around by your waist so it's not THAT bad on the shoulders and back, but still not something i'd wana do.

toothbrush, 2 t shirts, 3 pairs of socks rolled up in a towel bungeed to the bars and the rest sent home via ups.

 

Retiring my hello kitty backpack and buying saddlebags was one of the smartest things I've done. That dude is tough!

 

There's a saying here in AZ: People that move from Yuma to Phoenix always need to buy sweaters.

In summer, Yuma is usually the hottest part of a hot state.
