Still in the shop.....

Sadly Cherry is still in the shop after two weeks. We're hoping she'll be out and raring to go today. I stopped by yesterday, the bars are on but she was still in a thousand pieces. I need to get a few days of ride time to adjust everything for the new set up.

I promised photos for this update, but it will now be the next update.

Preliminary weather forecast looks good, but cold. I hope I have everything I need to handle the cold weather. I have been pretty much a fair weather rider, so this is going to be pretty new for me.

Hotel reservations are made, 3 of my outgoing stops are classic Route 66 hotels.

The Blue Swallow in Tucumcari, NM. http://blueswallowmotel.com/

The El Rancho Hotel in Gallup, NM. http://route66hotels.org/

El Trovatore in Kingman, AZ. http://eltrovatoremotel.com/

For my other westbound nights, I will be using points (thanks IHG rewards!). Then when I'm slabbing back on the southern eastbound route, I'll use points again. No history, just making quick time.

Hopefully, photos tonight or tomorrow.
