    Did you know that there is a rail line from LA through Death Valley and back to LA that is for the exclusive use of motorcycles?
    At least that's the way it seemed riding my SuperGlide with the Sputhe chassis stabilizers on it.
    You couldn't ask for better performance from my new T-max. at the fuel stop in baker I calculated my mileage at just over 45 MPG, that's cruising at 70-75 or better and the power curve is way improved.
    this was my route;
    Google Maps
    These were the photos I took;

    Nice pics and nice route. I never thought about taking the 127 out of baker. I will have to try that soon.
