U.S. Rides
We are spending the winter of 2000 in the SW of
the USA. The first month in Rockport, Texas was pretty uneventful,
partly due to the cool, wet weather but mainly due to the uninspiring straight
roads and no off-roading, except for Padre Island Beach. We visited
Hal and Gwen (Hal had got me started biking again after a 30 year layoff
when he let me ride his Yamaha TW200 in Tucson last winter) and he had
his Yamaha Virago with him - I got to ride in on Christmas Day!

Moved on to Tucson on New Years Day, 2001
and planned to stay for 2 months and then head up the California coast
from San Diego to San Francisco, before heading cross-country through Nevada,
Utah, Colorado, etc, spreading that part of the trip over as further 6
weeks. The area around Tucson is very mountainous and vast areas
are open for all sorts of off-road activities. Last year I did it
on a mountain bike, but this year was going to be power-assisted!
