That's right, I'm on the Historic 66 and loving it. There is so much to see and it is plenty challenging. Continues rolling hills and inconsistent road shoulders with plenty of traffic make for alert riding conditions. Oklahoma City was plenty hectic and entertaining and I meet up with my friend, Mike. This episode is one of three covering Route 66 from Tulsa, Oklahoma to Santa Rosa, New Mexico. So buckle up and get ready to experience a bit of American history on two wheels.
