ROLLING INTO RACHEL<br />

We leave Vegas at lunchtime and head back<br />

into the searing Nevada desert. An hour into<br />

the ride it becomes obvious that riding in this<br />

kind of heat is suicide and detour into a<br />

place called Glendale, where we spend the<br />

next four hours drinking iced tea in a roadhouse.<br />

Before we leave, the man at the<br />

counter warns us that this is open-range<br />

country with black cows roaming freely.<br />

In Alamo, where we fuel up just before dark,<br />

we’re warned again of the black cows.<br />

“You kill it, you buy it. And they ain’t cheap,”<br />

advises Candy while Dixie jokes that the<br />

ranchers get them black so they’re harder to<br />

see at night. Despite the extreme bovine<br />

hazard we decide to push on to Rachel.
