Due to the passes over the mountains being blocked with snow, we started this morning contemplating a 340 mile detour.
After a long and thorough search of my luggage and room, I had to accept that I had lost my glasses. So 340 miles of scenic roads and freeways ably assisted by Obe Wan.
The mountains as seen from my room in the hotel. Never did find the Lone Pine or my glasses.
If this is the Lone Pine, it was a long way from home.
Don't know where this is - somewhere on a southern pass over the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
The sign in this picture had been used for target practice and was full of buckshot.
This is the pass coming out of the mountain before we turned north on the freeway. There are no pictures of the freeways as they makes the M25 look interesting.
Bike is going well, but have to stop every 70-90 miles to give the bum a rest.
This is the view from our overnight stop in Yosemite. The road coming in was quite good with lots of sweeping bends. But after 300 miles, I was not in the mood to really enjoy it.
2610 miles so far
Sounds like it was not a good day. How can you lose your glasses, I thought you wore them all the time? Shame you missed the mountains, sounds like it would have been a much nicer ride than the freeway. Enjoy your last few days, you'll be able to see it in focus when you look at the photos on your return.
