Day 5 Rest Day

Day 5 Rest Day, Blythe, CA

Bikers' day off! We assembled at 9am for a training session on bike cleaning. After our ride in the desert, this was crucial. It took a lot longer than we anticipated, but we all feel confident that our machines are ready for another 50 more days of riding.

It was a fine day in Blythe. The temperature was about 72 degrees and the sky was a deep blue without a hint of a cloud. We all feel more organized, having repacked clean clothes, arranging things to be more accessible, and helping us to be ready for the next day with little fanfare. I enjoyed getting caught up with friends and family.

We move on to Arizona tomorrow!

  2. It sounds like a perfect rest day - even though cleaning and repacking, etc. isn't most people's idea of resting. But then you all are not "most" people.
