Hi Ox, jstrode, Del, Jerry, Stephen and all - I had an awesome ride, just got back to Australia. All your tips came in handy... West Wendover didn't trip me up, cash at fuel stops came in super handy when my card didn't work at the pump, and I wore a hydration water backpack to keep my fluids up. It was nice and hot starting in Vegas, but turned cold and stormy once I reached Wendover Will - all the way to Reno.
I've got a ride report ready to publish, which I'll place in the main Ride Reports section. I hope it's ok to also share a link in our Aussie section's report area, to the single ride report I publish.
The ride left me with need for more riding in the USA. So many positives, so many nice people and scenery.
Yes, I'm also quite sad to come back to Australia's slow speed limits
