Our route will follow I10 to Chiriaco Summit and the Museum which is about 115 miles from our starting point. We plan to ride as a group to the Museum. Return choices for individuals or small groups are described below. The entrance fee to the museum is $4.00 for Adults and $3.50 for seniors 62 and older. There is a very nice cafe next to the Museum or you can choose a fast food establisment close by for lunch. Fuel is available. After the tour of the museum and lunch we have a couple of choices for our return trip home. The Cottonwood entrance to Joshua Tree National Park (Entrance fee) is just a few miles West of Chiriaco Summit off of I10. You can choose to take a ride through the park and rejoin I10 just North of Palm Springs. This adds about 60 miles to the trip. Some riders may choose to take I10 and head straight for home. Both routes will take you past the Outlet Stores, Hadley's Date's and the Morongo Casino at Cabazon. This should be a fun ride with lots of options. We hope to see you there.
