Wife and I both love the desert and here we are on the wet side of Washington. We head over east often though. Technically it is ?Arid Step?, but close enough. Trip looks like it is getting off to a good start! Excellent! Hope you can keep tabs on the site and send some pic?s every now and then. Sort of like a streaming documentary! Cruisers stock?

oh.. also got a nail on first day..

have to say..

I am sold on the TUBLISS setup..

if I didnt have that on there.. I would have had to be changing a rear tube in 109F weather... instead I tossed a plug in it.. .blew it up. and rode on....

also got re-routed by some fires near Young AZ....

alot of ROCKS today..   6mph crawl for 30 miles at a time..

109 might be just a tad too warm me thinks! Pretty country though. Really cool you are getting to do this with your father.

I may go get that tubless stuff before I leave,,'cept I won't have you to install it...

Unless I bring it with me...

I keep watching for your vapor trail through S.E.Idaho. You must be close.
