Summary:
Started off the day driving through cool, clear air up through the mountains east of San Diego. The weather turned hot though once the sun came up and I dropped down into the desert plains. Wide open spaces, cactus, hawks soaring above, trains that stretch for a mile, fast food truck stops. The bike handled the heat beautifully. Ended the day with an evening skate session at one of Scottdale’s local skateparks. The park was fun: a good pool and fun street course. A quick Wal-Mart dinner now it’s off to bed. Tomorrow I hope to go north up in elevation and out of the heat. Destination: Albequerque.
Friends, can you maybe asssit me? A friend of mine is considering buying themselves a new Honda CBR 1000 as their first new bike! Never rode much of anything else before! I did say this is probably not a good idea for the first one, but they are adamant! What do you rekon, is this ok and would u then just recommend proper lessons?
Looks like a nice ride! I live right around the corner to that skate park, awesome place. I need to pick myself up a bagger, carrying a backpak sure is getting old on those long rides!
