If Lance Amstrong can do it . . .

Yesterday, we rode from Santa Clarita to Lancaster.  I rode the first 8 or so miles with Jody, out of the city and toward Bouquet Canyon.  Jody rode 40 hard miles in the hills.

On the road to Lancaster.  Jody in the distance.

 

Donkeys, longhorns and buffalo.

Still on the road to Lancaster.

Today, we rode from Lancaster to Victorville.  Long flat road with a few rises.  Cool when we started about 5:20.  In the high 90's when we finished.  I rode the first 17 miles with Jody.  Stronger every day.

Desert, desert and more desert.  Beautiful.

 

Includes wild-assed bikers.

Yosemite Sam, in the desert.

Tomorrow we ride to the western edge of the Mojave Desert.  Tomorrow night is a blue moon.  We'll either be out in the desert howling at it . . . or in the motel, already asleep!
