Thumbs up Photos & Vids:Some stuff from recent US bike ride: More added.

As some of you know, I and 14 others went for a week ride in US.
Route as follows:
Day1: San Francisco to Oakdale (approx 150 miles) via Golden Gate Bridge
Day 2: Oakdale to Mammoth Lakes, via Yosemite and Tioga Pass (9900 feet, and yes snot on the ground in June)
Day 3:Mammoth Lakes to Death Valley (furnace creek rancy) (for some footage of the ride in death valley, follow this link YouTube - stagification's Channel

Day 4: Death Valley to Las Vegas
Day 5 Vegas to Springdale in Zion National Park via hoover dam. What a drive, and the destination is beyond words.
Day 6: Springdale to Grand Canyon
Day 7: Grand Canyon to Phoenix and end of trip.

I can only say that I would do this again in a heartbeat.

Here is a link to some photos, and will upload more as I get them..

I know what you mean, but for some reasons, when we found some bends, and there were some, I found it a little harder to hold the camera and ride the bike. hmmm, strange that.

Anyway, found some gorgeous bends in Death Valley, and Zion National park, and what a pleasure it was to be able to squirt it a bit in the knowledge that you would not find either a car or water mid bend. Glorious is a good word !!!!!!

If you seriously think about doing it again, let me know as I will move anything to do it with you.

I did Route 66 2 years ago, and I have to admit that this was a much more enjoyable trip.
