Today I rode from Stalton Sea to Las Vegas. The ride was pretty boring
and uneventful except for Joshua Tree National Park. It was beautiful,
and probably the best sport-riding of the trip. Good pavement and turns
that I can see all the way through. My only concern was that they might
scrutinize my pass when I left and compute my average speed - surely
above the posted limit!

This picture truely does say a thousand words. Las Vegas is lush with plants foreign to the desert, kept alive by a civilization with resources to spare. The extravagence is a stark comparison with the ruggendess of the rest of my trip. However, the soft bed and delicious home-made food were certainly welcome :-)
