This was on the door to the Rock Cafe in Oklahoma...they were expecting us and closed down to all locals...BIKERS ONLY!!!
The Mother Road as it exists today.
This is the whole road...not just one lane. How was this even possible? Can you imagine two big rigs meeting each other on this road during a rain storm?
It used to go on, but nature has taken its course.
Today was a great day. We broke away from the main group and tagged along with a group known as the "explorers" of the group. Legend has it that they have ridden 95% of the Route 66 that is still in existence. Quite a bit of that includes dirt roads, old concrete with plants growing up through the cracks, trees hanging over the road...all sorts of cool stuff. They're a lot of fun and it was nice to see the other side of the road. The main group stays on the well known sections of the Route 66, and the freeway/highway. That was good for two days and now we're trying to explore a bit more. It takes a bit longer, but we see a lot of stuff that you don't see on the beaten path.
I've got to get to sleep. More tomorrow.

Here's a video that I think is pretty cool...
