Route 66 is dyeing

This part of route 66 Is just dead... It's unbelievable that we are being forced to go through this horrible pavement.




Terrible road!

It would be better to be unpaved!




Leaving in the early morning

Yesterday we discovered the winds were not helping... As soon as we stepped outside we discovered the winds were still very strong and decided to stay for the night.

We're now in a local cafe having breakfast and all set to go. This time we will leave Barstow, CA no matter what!




Just woke up

After sleeping the remaining of previous night and today the whole.day I just woke up. My hncle is not here so I supposed he went out for a walk.

We will now get ready for one more nightly ride, this time towards Barstow, CA.

Hopefully the winds will be lower today and we will be able to move ahead and stay between Barstow and Mohave city. We'll see what happens!

But before we go, it's diner time!

Arrived safely in Ludlow, CA

After being awake 30 hours straight and being 26 hours in the road we finally arrived in Ludlow, CA.

Today we covered 108 miles!!!

I'll sleep now, but I will tell you this was a very unique day... You won't believe what we saw on the desert, I'm just glad to have my uncle as witness so I know I'm not getting crazy!



3000 MILES!!

Today we reached the 3000 miles mark!!



Thank you Farrell!

We'd like to register a special THANK YOU to Farrell Hastings, the owner of Roy's Motel and Cafe in Amboy, CA,

Today he let us stay there while temperatures were too high. He also provided us with coffee, water and soda, besides letting us cook our frozen food in the employee's area.

He basically saved the day!

Thank You!!
