The Geezer Riders considered their ride to Oatman, Ariz., one of the highlights of their Route 66 trip because of the rugged Black Mountains surrounding it, the semi-wild burros roaming the streets and the quaint businesses. Here's the story on it in the Mainichi Daily News of Japan.
Here is the report about the Geezers' ride through the Mojave Desert, including a stop at the Bagdad Cafe. They noted that road conditions were a bit rough, which were caused last spring by record rains.
On the final leg of their trip through the Los Angeles metro area, it sounds like the Geezer Riders bypassed the old road and went on the freeways instead. Too bad. They missed a lot of interesting things that way.
