Would be an incredible journey. There are still many sites to explore. Much of the road is on maintained 2 and 4 lane highway, but plenty of stretches (here in California that I've seen) are side-road forgotten sun beaten pot-holed asphalt. These might be the best parts with all the abandoned buildings and a few ghost towns. This pic I took in '09 near Barstow California. I think we were going to Laughlin Nevada for a couple days with the kids.[GALLERY=media, 91][/GALLERY]Choose the timing carefully, it has gotten to 115+ degrees in some parts. It also gets below freezing in the winter. Very windy some months also. These winds are brutal in the hot dry 0-1% humidity summers with high gusts. I have seen a web site that shows average temps. There is probably one for winds too. A medium tall windscreen would be a priority for me, as well as tinted face shield.Your route to PCH is not far from me to meet up. I'll buy the beer.</blockquote>
