Sick Puppy Tuesday was a non-ride day due to the very long and hard day yesterday. Danny’s chest cold contributed to today’s postponement. When we arrived in Williams, Az., he went to see Dr. Yard. The result was an order that Danny is not to ride for 3 days until his bronchitis clears. It is interesting that we had allowed 3 days in the Grand Canyon. Tomorrow Roman and Charles will ride from Williams to the Grand Canyon. Danny plans to add 5-6 miles to each day’s trek, once he is 110% to cover the distance missed. Since we did not ride today, we had lots of time to sightsee. Williams was the last town to allow the interstate to cross through its city. Their stand in court and face to face with the Federal Gov. was a long fight. Once the interstate cut through, Route 66 was doomed. The town of Williams has many wonderful shops and sights. We each visited many while Danny rested. The most interesting and fun place was our evening meal at Cruiser’s, a restaurant who’s original building was constructed in 1910. The bathroom has an old 60’s VW bus door that separates the stalls and a pair of truck tailgates that provide the same separation. The walls provide an interesting gallery of old road and service station signs and the dining rooms have a variety of old gasoline pumps for décor. Since Danny could not walk the 5 blocks in the cold from the motel to the restaurant, the Cruiser’s staff (Kevin) was kind enough to come gather us. He drove up in the restaurant’s '51 Suburban and provided transportation to and from the restaurant. We had 3 orders of beef ribs and a wonderful dessert of ice cream over a hot brownie with lots and lots of whip cream and cherries. Roman gave up his bike today to ride the buffalo outside of Cruiser’s. The saddle was much more comfortable. We suggest you click here for further information on Cruiser’s.
