Death Valley Road Trip
April 30, 2008
My first long trip was at the end of March to Death Valley. I rode a different bike (which had a handlebar I had to reach for - agony) on Friday to Ridgecrest - 380 miles. I was in pain so Bob offered to take me 2 up on Saturday. It was a new experience to ride 2-up!

I didn't handle left turns particularly well; I would whine and turn into "The Human Clamp." Poor Bob...he was great though, patting me reassugingly on the leg. He can do a pretty good imitation of my whine...
It was a fun trip and you really get to know people on a different level on an 'overnighter' vs. a regular Chapter Run.
