Like the title said, I'm bored to death at Yuma.
I've got a day off. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Go to prison, no really, the tour of the old prison is quite interesting. I don't know if they have it in the billion degree summer though.
driving out toward Glamis and the sand dunes is nice too.
or go to Mexico!

Whew, not a lot of interesting options for a day ride, but try riding to Brawley(I-8 to 111 then west on 86S), then SR 78 through Julian to Escondido and loop back though Lakeside (SR67) to I-8 and back to Yuma.

Lol. Are you riding or driving? It's gotta be god-aweful hot there now. I've only been there in the winter.
Other ideas not mentioned already.
* Go to the Bard museum. Get a date shake or three on the way.
* Kofa NWR (maybe too hot...)
* Go up to the river and hang out.
* Go to Algodones again...

Good point. Skip San Diego- it'll only make you feel worse in the long run, because after Yuma, you still have to go back to Jersey City!

I think I'd rather be part of a large lawn dart into the earth than be hanging out in Yuma in July.

I'm bored at work. I WANT TO RIDE.
the only good thing is that i have to pick up parts for work and that means ROAD TRIP.
BTW it's only 74 deg. out
