This summer I am pointing my F6B West through St. Louis, on to OK City, then Gallup NM, Flagstaff AZ, Barstow CA and then on to LA.

Planning on about 600 miles a day. Any suggestions of "Don't Miss this on the way"?

I enjoy the local diners and eateries and the small locally owned motels from days gone by, any suggestions? I may ride on old HY 66 if it looks interesting.

Weather wise, is early July a good time frame for the Canyon?

Depending on how my ass feels when reaching LA, I may store the bike someplace, fly back to Cleveland and then fly back for the ride home in early September. Any one have any experience storing a bike for a month in the LA area?

I will be coming back the Northern route through Vegas, Grand Junction CO, Colby KS, and on to Cleveland.

Thanks for any input.
