Death Valley Ride October 22 - 23, 2018

I needed to get some miles in and had a couple free days so I decided to high tail it down to Death Valley for an overnight trip. I left around 8:00 in the morning and headed over Sonora Pass and down the 395. I arrived at Furnace Creek around 3:30. It was about 50 degrees and sunny at the pass and was nice down the 395 as well. Death Valley was around 85 degrees when I got there. No way I am spending $300 for a hotel room just to sleep so good thing I had my camping gear.

The next day I packed up and did the ride in reverse. I left around 7:00 in the morning and was a beautiful ride through Death Valley as the sun was coming up. Was pretty cold until I got to the west side of the Sierras. Got home around 4:00.
