Yuma, Arizona to Calexico, California

Finally in California! In CA you can’t ride the freeway if there is a frontage road. The frontage road was the worst road I have ridden on the trip. It probably hasn’t been paved in 20 years. The weather started out ok but about 2:30PM a huge thunder storm rolled in and it started to rain, not just a little rain but in was cats and dogs.

Travel Time: 3 Hours 44 Minutes 40 Seconds

Each and every one of you who visits this blog makes an extraordinary difference to me as I undertake this ride. I could not do it without your support – in fact, if it was all about me, I would have quit a long time ago.

PLEASE forward this link to EVERYONE on your contact list and request that they visit the blog. Please support me in having 10,000 people visit this site by December.
