Route 50 follows the route of the Pony Express. AT&T have this mural on the wall of their exchange in Ely. It celebrates the replacement of riders by the first telegraph across the country.
Shame there is no AT&T mobile signal in this town ;-)
On the 31st March 2009 I set off for a 2 month tour of the USA on a Harley Davidson, hoping to discover the 'real' America. I planned to finish the trip on Memorial Day, joining 12 thousand other Harleys riding into Washington DC. Sadly my journey ended on Route 50 just outside Garden City in Kansas. On the 12th May 2013 I complete the journey in the good company of Rachael, Mark, Jayne and Jeremy.
