    FB I made it home last week. No longer in CA. I came home the long way I-40, 287 down to 380 around Denton then 69 south to I-20 over to I-55. 1st day did a little look and see. Went thru Oatman, AZ.

    Spent the night just west of Flagstaff, AZ Left Flagstaff and figured I try for the Saddle Sore 1000 made it to just north of Tyler, TX, 1,051 miles. Caught some rest. Then I went figuring again hmm Let's try for the Butt Burn ride 1,500 in 36 hours. Well I was going to be shy a few miles so I had to pass up the house and loop back to it but I made it! Just got to get the paper work turned in.
    Map below shows all of the stops. ( Need bigger fuel tank for these runs!)

    Smile Good run

    Dar I liked the pics and was interested in the camera on the helmet. I live in Deridder La so if you head this way give me a call maybe I could take a short run with you.
    I have a 2011 RTSSe5 Red.

    Yep, Hot and high humidity as usual.
    It is hurricane season, but nothing in the gulf as we speak. Has been raining about everyday. Which is about right.
    Here is a link for some good eats. It is off of I-49 north east side of town. http://www.prejeans.com/
