Riding up to Laughlin

On Thursday we rode up to Laughlin.
It was cool when we set out but that's OK for riding.
Richard got his introduction to SOCAL freeways, the 605 was bumper to bumper. Just as well we can use the carpool lane.
When we got to the Cajon pass it went from cool to cold and it stayed cold all the way to Peggy Sue's in Yermo.








We gassed up in Yermo where I helped two young German girls at the gas station and fell in love again.
From Peggy Sue's we rode on to Goffs Road so that we could pay $5.50 a gallon for gas. That made Richard feel quite at home! It made Jeff and me feel hot under the collar. Well it would have if we had been wearing collars.




This just next to the gas station at Goffs Road, a part of Old Route 66, the road is so rough that it shakes bits off your bike.
There was a motor home with some bicyclists who were doing some kind of Route 66 challenge, note the flag.




We rode on from here to Laughlin using the NV 163 route over Christmas Tree Pass, now that is a really fun road for riding.
Finally we made it to Laughlin.




The winning money plan did not work as designed!
Today we will meet up with Barb and Leon and then take a ride over to Oatman.
