I should have some video to go along with the pics on this trip.
Registering temps over 100 in the Mojave already!!!
Jackhis - Have a safe trip!

have a good ride. It will take you forever if you try to follow the actual route. It winds off main roads a lot and some of it is gone totally, but still a fun ride.

Been watching the Weather Channel as departure time nears. After reading about the devastation caused by the tornado that came through Joplin it certainly has my attention. Keep an ear to that weather band!

I will be checking in to this site from the road and will pass along anything of interest that may assist you on your solo run.

You have a safe trip as well!
