Day 12
Day off of riding.
Chore day, shipping some things home and one load of laundry.
Wish list for bike:
Risers to bring the handlebars back to relieve shoulder pain
Cut windshield down 2-3 inches
Articulated highway pegs that I can reach
Shields for the hands
Sat at registration table for the afternoon, great way to see people and visit.
No miles for the day

Day 9
South Las Vegas - Hoover Dam - Filmore, Ut
Very bad pain day, I'm cutting the trip short and heading for Deadwood. Hoping to arrive on Monday.
Excruciating pain shooting up and down both arms, plus left leg having cramps. How do you long distance riders stand it?

Hoover Dam showing the Memorial Bridge, Visitors Center and drive over Dam
Oh, yea, I ran out of gas right before the junction of I-15 and I-70. Honda VTX rider stopped and had a quart bottle on him. Wasn't enough, but I was able to coast to a stop right behind a State Patrol. Honda took off and Statie took me to the next gas station, filled the donated quart bottle, and brought me back to the bike. THEN followed me back to the station! Amazing!
Miles for the day = 340 Total for trip = 2108
