First stop: Barstow, California. 100 miles from Monrovia, our departure point.

We met 2 couples on 2 big Harleys here, wearing leather jackets and vests. They came over and talked to us and we found out that they are British and came over from London, England, rented 2 Harleys and tour Route 66.


Then a gentleman riding a Harley walked over and chat. He is a solo rider riding from San Diego to Kingman, Arizona to visit his brother, riding route 66.


Cars can never connect people like a motorcycle does...
