Description: |
This is the sequel to “Into The Desert”. After a few days in the heat of the deserts of Southern California and Nevada, I worked my way back towards more...San Diego, by motorcycling up into the mountains, to ride by Lake Arrowhead, Silverwood Lake, Lake Gregory, and along the beautiful “Rim of the World Drive” to Big Bear Lake. Rim of the World Drive is the two lane Highway 18, located northeast of San Bernardino, and, as I found out, FILLED with OTHER motorcyclists on weekends! It was QUITE a change bein’ around so many other motorcyclists again, after bein’ in the solitude of the deserts on my own. And once I got FURTHER back into civilization, it was even MORE of a change, havin’ to be impacted by damned TRAFFIC LIGHTS again!!, after ridin’ for DAYS without seein’ even ONE of those truly annoying inventions from Hell! LOL I wonder how many YEARS are wasted out of people’s lives by havin’ to sit still at traffic lights? . . . . but I digress LOL . . .
On Memorial Day I head out from San Diego again on the motorcycle for a few weeks, and ride up the Pacific Coast Highway to the San Francisco Bay Area, then east through Yosemite National Park, then by Mono Lake and east on the wonderful two old U.S. 50 through Nevada, which is a GREAT motorcycling road that I’ve loved bein’ on many times over the decades. U.S. 50 was part of the old 3,400 mile long Lincoln Highway, which was a famed transcontinental highway, and the first practical automobile road to link the East and West coasts of the United States. The Nevada portion of U.S. 50 is rarely used any more, with most travelers opting to use 4 lane Interstate 80 to the north, which is fine by ME! since they leave U.S. 50 to the bikers and people in enclosed vehicles who have more time on their hands to enjoy the incredible vistas :) :)
Once out of Nevada, I’ll wander around Utah and Arizona for a while, then spend a few days in Las Vegas, before headin’ back to San Diego.
The song I used for this video is “Let It Ride” by Ryan Adams & The Cardinals. less
