This is a year-round weather sensitive tour. If the weather forecast is over 100 degrees, we'll need to look for a cooler trip like Mount Charleston.

 

The Rider/The Tour: The participant of this motorcycle tour should be at least an intermediate rider, with a few thousand miles under his/her belt. More ....

We're going to have a nice time, we'd like to have friendly riders join us. "You'll be happier than itchy pig rubbing up against a rail fence."

This guided motorcycle road trip starts off from Las Vegas and will visit historical older roads of Arizona. Historical Rt. 66 is described below or see the video.

VIDEO BELOW - 5.21 Minutes - Ride into Oatman - Twisties on Historical Route 66
 
We'll truck south for Oatman and have a blast where donkey's and gunfighters roam the streets. We'll catch a cowboy shoot-out featured by the American Red Cross, browse a few shops, then head back to Vegas.
 

Below is a topographical image of historical road route 66 near Oatman that travels across parts of the Black Mountains, which is mostly desert. It would be nice to see them fix this road instead of filling in the cracks, sometimes it makes me angrier than mud wasp in a dry gourd. It requires much caution due to the hairpin turns AND switchbacks. So, this is the little road that will get us warmed up as we get ready to explore every type of road condition, every curve, every twisted hairpin switch back. Is there such a thing as a twisted hairpin switchback? We'll I'm afraid to say, yes, and it's not pretty but you'll find every bit of a statement like that and more in a little town called, "Oatman" that is located on historical route 66 just outside of Laughlin Nevada.

Drive into Oatman

Oatman - Aside from the aesthetics when driving into Oatman, Oatman is a lot of fun.

Oatman's Wild Wild West Gun Slingers

Ania about dropped over as they started firing blanks into the air as part of the wild west gun show, as you can see by the expression on her face, it was loud! Off to the distance you can see the small hotel and restaurant. We'll definitely want to hit that before leaving town, not for the food, but for the pictures.

BLASTED!

Great little shops to browse and pick-up a few small gifts like Route 66 souvenirs, leather goods, t-shirts, belts, hats, key-chains and so forth. I got a great XXL t-shirt for only $4.75! We picked up a nice pair of suspenders for about $9 as you can see hanging up behind Ania. It's just a fun little town that we'll enjoy for a bit on day 1 of our guided tour.

Route 66

ALL DAY LONG! - Isn't that right squinty eyes?

El Donkeys combing the streets looking for hand-outs. Vendors sell carrots to feed them. They were warning folks not to get to close to the back legs as they kick and not to feed the baby donkeys carrots, as they choke.

This mighty stead looks proud to be in Oatman.

The picture is a bit blurry below because I was being chewed out for taking photos in the small gift shop by Bob's employee... Anyways,

(Below) Bob from Tama's Rt 66 Biker Den, tells some interesting stories about the hwy we were about to traverse. He said, "Last month, 5 motorcycles went over the edge. People just get to looking at the sites and not paying attention to the road. There are 2" rocks on the road and different types of gravel that cause riders to loose their grip. Last Sunday 3 motorcycles in one day went over the edge including one Honda Trike. One motorcycle tour operator just got done talking to the group before the Honda Trike went over the edge. We've come to call this the Oh-My-God Road," instead of something with a term of blood in it.

Tama's RT 66 - Biker Den - (928) 768-9841

Past Lives In Oatman - Olive Oatman part of the Royce Oatman family members killed by raiding Indians of the past.

Oatman Hotel
Oldest 2 story adobe building in Mohave County that still reflects the good-ole-days of Oatman, built inn 1912. I do have to wonder if Clark Gable was the last recent Hollywood star to visit the Oatman Hotel?

This hotel has thousands of dollars bills stapled on every single wall.

Oatman is just out-side of Laughlin, Nevada and a real joy to visit.
As you can see, some nice Hardware was setting around town.

Lets take a look at Historic Route 66 out of Oatman.

As you can see, the road is in need of repairs but not to bumpy. Below is a nice attempt of a wall to keep people from taking the plunge. Bob from Bikers Den, said "You have the mountain on your side headed from West to East". I really didn't know what he meant until we started down the road and noticed that instead of hugging the shoulder, we had the mountain to hug, which definitely made us feel a little safer.

Ok, Bob got us a little nervous, nevertheless, we enjoy the ride.

Here's a few more photos of the trip from Oatman.
