While planning my trip to Colorado for this summer, I got out the maps 
I used for the first Sprint rallye we had in Colorado. I was marking 
the route through Utah on this old set of maps and a new set, and one 
hwy I just couldn't find on the old set. After studying both for 
awhile, I finally noticed that it used to be called Hwy 666. I guess 
that was just to politically incorrect for the Mormons so they changed 
it.

I guess the Amish are more tolerant.

If there's any Hwy that deserves the 666 moniker, it is Hwy 50 through 
Nevada. Straight, flat, and hotter than hell.

  '79 KZ400 - just because it was the first vehicle I ever owned
