Flagstaff to Holbrook, AZ


Today began with a speedy 55 miles from Flagstaff to Winslow Arizona of Eagles' song fame. The second half to Holbrook, just 32 miles was a slight climb and much warmer. 87.5 miles is nothing to scoff at though. Lots of long flat vistas with the San Francisco peaks, behind us.

Here is Winslow Az and with the famous statue connoting "standing on the Corner in Winslow AZ." There is a whole mural painted there that is pretty cool. As you can see Dave and I seized the newly remodelled town center spot to park our bikes.

Tomorrow is another 90 mile day since there are no hotels between Holbrook and Gallup New Mexico. That however will put us into a new state on a Monday again, so we will see how often we can cross a state in a week. On the level we can do pretty well, so we are hoping for a good, if pushed ride tomorrow to get to Gallup.
