Great roads today! The roads were nice and curvey most of the day and there were very few people to spoil the experience. This morning we rode through forests and mountains and the afternoon we curved through Gila national forest. There were bikes going the opposite direction, a lot more we usually see. That’s a good indication you’ve found someplace special.
We ended the day in a town called Truth or Consequences. It’s hot here, hot like the sun. Both of us are tired from working the bikes through all those turns. When we got here we wanted to stay at this sweet motel we checked out last night, the guy said it would be an hour before we could check in. That was cool with us, out of the ordinary, but cool. They had chairs and some shady areas to sit so I figured we sit, chill, and I write. Nope, the guy wants us to come back in an hour. Our response, fuck him. We found a place down the road that’ll work and settled in to the routine. I’m a bit concerned about Logan at this place, there is high random traffic. We’ll see if I fold and bring him inside.
So, how do you think a town gets a name like Truth or Consequences?
I figured old westy type name, like deadwood or something like that.
Swampkat figured it was a bible type thing.
What do you think?
The town used to be called Hot Springs, because it has some. ToC comes from a game show. There was some sort of April fools thing back in 1950 and this town changed it’s name to the name of the show, Truth or Consequences. Sounds pretty desperate huh?
One really cool thing they have here is a space port, yes that space. It’s definitely on my list, but we’ve got shit to do. We have to get into Texas tomorrow for bike maintenance. There may be a post, maybe not.
Trip started his ride today, soon we will be three.

Awesome!!!!
