Heading North out of Sandy Valley on Day 2 of the LA to Barstow to Vegas ride. You will see right off that I had to stop. ...I forgot to buckle the waist strap on my backpack, and it got snagged preventing me from standing up.

My fellow sweep rider, Frank Filips didn't see me stop, so I had some catching up to do. :)

There were a couple big hits taken, the second (and worst of the two) bent my rear rim, but the bead held and I had zero problems all the way into Vegas!

More to come!
