This will be a nice, easy-paced ride to the Kelso Depot, which is about 40 miles south of the Nipton exit on the 15. We will grab a bite to eat at the Beanery and check out the other attractions. The ride will be about 211 miles total, using the meetup spot as the start/end. This will be an early morning start so were not in the heat too much.

Meet-up 6:30AM
Location Terrible Herbst at Russell and I-15 (North Side) - MAP
Kickstands up 7:00AM

Should be back around Noon

We are meeting up at the same spot for our ride out to Cali for the funeral. Who knows, maybe we can ride down together for part of the trip. Just depends on what time we roll out.

Thanks to Buck. Stacy and Susan for riding today. Those that didn' go missed out again it was just a little warm from Stateline to Vegas but not too bad. Won't do this again this time of year will wait till Fall. Winter or Early Spring.
