Some day! (12-9) I got up real early
and left Pearblossom at 7:15am, just as soon as it was light enough to safely ride. I was pretty well committed to reaching Yucca
Valley right from the start, but realized that I might have to camp along the road if it
got dark before I got close to town. I was
therefore mindful of good places to pull over for the night, and I found one, but it was
too early in the day to stop.
It turned out that I had just enough
daylight, as I took three short stops, and snuck into Yucca Valley under the cover of real
heavy twilight at about 5:00pm. The
accomplishment of the day was that I managed to get back on schedule after two straight
days of stopping short of where I was supposed to be.
Oh yeah, I also rode 103 miles today, which is a new all-time personal best. If you’re looking for something funny today
– forget it!
