On the road this morning at 6 am, rode to Yermo, Ca., had breakfast at Peggy Sue's diner, back up CA Hwy 127 through Shoshone, CA., then Amargosa Valley, NV. and home. 405 miles for breakfast. Just a "perfect" day for it!

Sorry, no pictures, it didn't happen, here's a random unchosen sample of Stevens pics over the last year or so....totally random remember, I didn't specifically choose them at all.....:-
These guys even stopped Steven until they'd straightened out the road for him!

Beauty Drikko, I don't think our north american cousins are fully conversant with all our fine traditions, ie "taking the piss'
