| An Oasis! |
 |
| Late Afternoon miles on the sands of Joshua Tree |
 |
| View from The road |
 |
| Bivouacked on picnic table to keep away from the creepies! |
 |
| In digging out my tools from under my seat (which required taking ALL my bags off) to help these guys fix a broken alternator belt on their car... |
 |
| ...I knocked the bike over and scarred my helmet! At least my head wasn't in it...Moral of story: don't leave your helmet sitting on the bike! |
 |
| Former home of famous airplane and spaceship designer Burt Rutan... but they say after 3 of his employees died testing the rocket motor for Spaceship one (that won the Ansari X Prize) he has given it up and moved to Wyoming... |
 |
| Rotary Rocket VTOL experimental prototype on display...NOT on display was Virgin Galactic's Spaceship Two and Mothership Eve, tho I actually got to see both in their hangar after talking with Rex, the only guy working there on this Saturday. They were mated and Rex was getting them ready for a drop test flight scheduled for next week. It was an impressive and beautiful sight -- they are BIG -- and I wish I could have taken photos, but that was prohibited. |
