Home / Mojave Preserve and Desert bikepacking trips / Fall 2011: Route 66 bicycle-camping—Cady Mountains, Sleeping Beauty and Kelso Dunes Wilderness / Day 1: Route 66 bicycle ride from Barstow to Sleeping Beauty Mountains foothills near Ludlow, CA /
It's almost 2 pm; I've just passed under I-40 again on Rte 66 near Newberry Springs and here's a gas station
After 20 miles on the bicycle, I stop in for a quick Subway meatball sandwich and a can of Mountain Dew for some additional caffeine at the gas station by the freeway. With 25 miles ahead of me and a strong wind, it's a very slow ride.
