Day 17 Las Vegas, Nv to Santa Monica, CA

Holy chit we made it, and all in two peices, both of us. 

Its been a hell of a long ride, we estimate about 5000Klm have been riden. A few close encounters here & there, however, we have arrived un scathed.

Today we rode through the Mojave Desert, to arrive at Los Angeles. Apart from the LA section, we rode in 40+ celcius, it was stinkin hot. Luckily we used a wet silica gel neck thingy, they worked a treat and helped us keep cool.

Riding into LA is hectic to put it mildly, trucks, cars, over passes, under passes.

We dropped off the bikes as planned, all went smoothly, untill we were in the cab half way to the hotel and Dave realises he has the keys to his bike in his pocket! An expensive mistake.

We spent the night in Santa Monica at our favorite Mexican Cantina, its allways fun in there. Diablo (buffalo) wings & Corona is a good combination

So, the journey ends, we are now at LAX, back where it all started, back in the Lounge writing the blog. We are waiting for our flight to Honolulu. It wont be route 66, though we will continue to blog our travels.


Adios Amigos, Dave & Mick
