View from the cockpit this morning (3:30 a.m. where she is, 6:30 east coast): joshua trees, desert boulders, a shooting star, and lots of lightning. She's about 80 miles outside of Phoenix, and less than 400 from San Diego. Seems like a really small number now to the half-way point! Started out Monday night at 15,999 on her odometer, now rolling over 18,000 (on this 4 month old bike that's just getting started!). Took a break last night for an hour or so and is looking forward to some sleep to reset the clock for the trip back. Thanks to Leslie and waiting friends in CA! She'll probably roll in around 10-noon CA time.
You Go Kirsten!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy !!!
Have a Safe Ride !!!
I want to hear ALL about it.
Love ya,
Dianne Gardner
I think she's on record pace. Prolly under 40 hours for her 50CC. I am very impressed. I hope to see her on her second leg. She will prolly be able to get a good long nap before the return leg.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job!!!
Way to go Kirsten!!!! You're doing great!
ReplyDeleteBe safe!

We're following along and pulling for you, girl! Like LuAnn and Patti said - stay safe and awake!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you are already in CA or almost in CA! The one time I drove across country, I think it took me 10 days. Well, I did not actually drive, I strolled - stopping every time I felt like it. But still! How long do you rest in CA? When do you return to FL?
ReplyDeleteWay to go!!! WOO HOO!!
ReplyDeleteHeh there, Kirsten :) I am curious of what make of bike are you riding ?
ReplyDeleteGod speed my friend.

About now you would expect two comments from a father figure who you impressed in Mexico: (1) "You're going great; with you in spirit. (2) Be sure to get enough rest."
ReplyDeleteHeidi - the bike is a BMW 1200 RT. She bought it end of April this year. I think at this point she's become one with the bike.
