What a trip! Enjoyed pics- tho' I shudder to think how you shot most. Haven't been to Laughlin in many moons- Is Ramada Inn still there? (it has a train that runs thru the hotel)- I could make out Kokopelly in one of nite shots- did you stop there? (Oatman looks like a wild west town!) Although you were actually DEAF on Monday (d/t swelling from beesting)- am glad that's the only affliction you suffered. (Was afraid your grp would be mistaken for "Angels" grp).

It was a fun trip. 340 miles each way. Ramada is still there. Did not stop at Kokopelly, what is that, a casino? Oatman IS an 1800's wild west ghost town. It was cool to see the burro's cruising around. They have free run of the place and are supposedly descended from the ones used to settle Oatman during the mining days. There are a LOT more bike groups out there that more closely resemble "Angles" I did not see any of their presence there. I DID however see a few of them chatting with the La Mesa PD a couple of weeks ago during the weekly car cruise. The trip was pretty uneventful with exception of one of our group running out of gas in the fast lane outside of Blythe. Since I was riding drag (at the back of the pack), I had to put myself between the cars and her to divert traffic around until we could get her bike fired again. The shoulder was only 2 feet wide and the cars were whizzing by at about 90mph not more than 5 feet away. We got her bike fired and then I had to break traffic again so she could pull back out onto the highway. That was a little unnerving. It's one thing doing it in a car but totally different when there is nothing between you and these huge masses of metal flying by.
