The End is Here

The last day of my route 66 adventure was just as exciting as the start.  Great weather to start the day in the High Desert of southern  California .  Leaving Needles on 66 to the lost town of Amboy CA.  Thanks to the owner of Juan Pollo restaurants this town is being resurrected.  He purchased the town form the estate of the original owners and in the process to restoring services and the buildings.  the ride on 66 in the desert is a bit tricky with the heat and the road isn't in the best shape in some places.  Right outside Catiz I had to detour to I 40 as the road was closed.  However I was able to rejoin before Amboy.












 
Once leaving Amboy I headed towards Barstow the view didn't change much till I reached my home town of Fontana Ca.  As I got to the inland empire and LA traffic was crazy and no way I could take any pictures as it wasn't too safe to do so.  The route takes you thru Fontana to the end of the route thru endless city's like Pomona, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills and of course Santa Monica.
 




Well that's it what a great ride so worth it, now im on my way to Vegas and then taking the long way home Via Evel Knievel Days.
