Day 6 Complete in Mesa, Az

After 90 miles to Mesa and doing the river trail in Phoenix for miles, Duffy and I found Jake, a local biker passing through. He lead us through Scottsdale and Tempe, and then directed us on the trails to take to the Mesa Residence inn on grove Street. Because of Jake’s help, we were able to get to Post 26 in time to meet some new Legion friends.

We did have to spray down and wipe down our bikes from all the red Arizona mud collected from the river trail this night before the start of day 7. In order to stay safe on the roadway we Opted to take a roadway that adds 50 miles to our trip. On Day 7 we will go to a place called Punkin Center in the Tonto Basin Area.
