LA Canyons to Selma

We finally hit the road after packing what we could in to the panniers and leaving the rest in our suitcases at our hotel until we get back. The first part of the trip out of LA was just freeways and in LA there are plenty of them, even when the traffic is really thick they are still doing 70MPH.

We did the Canyons heading out and before we knew it we were climbing to over 3,000 feet out of the LA smog in to the clear sunny skies. There were plenty of twisty corners to get the adrenalin going and get us back in to the swing of things after such a long wait to get here.

As we got further north the weather got warmer until finally it peaked at 102F (32C).

The last two hours of the ride was on the freeway heading north and we can't believe how many trucks there were. Trucks of all sizes are screaming along at 110kph and it gets quite noisy passing them.

3.30pm saw us checking in to our motel and kicking back with a couple of beers.

Here are some photo's of today.
