Yet another epic day in DV. Perfect weather, and the StovePipe Wells campers met the Longstreet partiers at Dantes View, a very good turn out! Today's agenda was to meet at Dantes, ride to Badwater, continue south to Ashford ? mill ruins, then lunch at Shosone sp? where MCML & Valerie, Mr. and Mrs. Silver Penguin, and 03SilverBullet were to meet us.
Lunch was good, the waitress was excellent, she got the job done with the big crowd, and not one person was seen imbibing, a good thing for a group ride. The rabbits took off in a hurry to gain first access to Artists Pallet, the rest of ran a more comfie pace. I think the pack then took off to fuel up at Furnace creek and or return to to StovePipe, I don't know - I decided to run AP again, but to make sure no one was worried about lil old me, I went to Furnace Creek but found no one. Some worry, eh? :lol:
With the sun growing long in tooth, I had to revisit Artists Pallet, to see the red long sun wavelengths on the various rock shades of burnt amber, red, turquoise and green. I still don't get why folks head straight to the barn when the best part of the day has yet to happen? As usual, I was the last one back.
Dinner was at 7 pm, and was *very* eventful. Bunch of spoiled FJR riders, this group, sending food back for being overcooked, and then having the gall to say that the salmon wasn't really salmon? :lol: whatcha say MCML and 03SilverBullett? :rofl:
More later, time to go beat Fairlaner at another game of pool!
Video uploading from the hotel room, will try to post later...
