I'm not sure I have the words to describe today's ride. In fact, I know I don't. Simply the best day of riding yet, maybe ever. The trip from Las Vegas to Lone Pine, CA is just staggeringly beautiful. Mountains, desert, canyons, mountain roads, joshua trees, creosote bushes, dry lake beds, expansive valleys, 5000 ft to -200 ft. Over mountains, thru passes, across deserts and dry lakes, back up into the mountains and more valleys. To have done this trip on a motorcycle is beyond my comprehension. Everyone who rides a motorcycle needs to do this at least once in their lives. That's all I can say. I have a few pictures, but I don't think they do justice to the beauty. I am gobsmacked.
