Vegas 2017 – Day 8 – Las Vegas NV.
Today we picked up the Harley-Davidson’s we hired from Las Vegas Harley-Davidson. We then rode down to Hoover Dam and did the tour. Parking is a rip off if you’re on a bike. They charge you the came as a car yet expect you to park in a motorcycle only area. After Hoover Dam we went back …
