Hey man I use Anytime Fitness, not only more locations than planet.. but your own personal bathroom just like those. I pay $35 a month but it’s totally worth it on the road. I think there’s 5k+ locations worldwide and you get access to any of them 24/7. They’re in small little towns along the road and also every major city, can’t be a better Vanlife gym imo. Thanks for video, I’ve also passed that sign a lot and never went down. Cheers

Who else gets happy when they see Ryan has uploaded? 😁 Love from Australia mate 🇦🇺❤️

Yeah bro I'm in Australia 🇦🇺 and love these videos. Makes me want to travel around aus in a van.

Thank you for going up Zzzyzx rd , I always wondered what was back there when I use to Live in Las Vegas and would drive to Oakland CA. 👍🏾

Me too! Had the 'desert run' Vegas to LA and always wondered about it!

My friend was in a band in the 90’s called Zzyzx. They ROCKED. 😁🤘

[@Railer61]

The sunglasses are still available I found. And lil fact, Mr. Love who founded Loves passes away within the past month. And I am a trucker, local now but had been OTR at one point. But the showers in truck stops are usually deemed "hospital clean" since they wipe and sanitize them after each use with fresh towels. The best for our drivers moving America.

[@jodischoolcraft9188]

I would definitely watch a clean and organize the van video

[@jdoe5277]

Thanks Ryan for traveling down Zzyzx Road. I always passed that sign and never had the nerve to drive down it. Thanks for the history lesson. And happy travels to Alaska. Something I always wanted to do. Stay safe.

[@rebm7505]

I love me some driving videos (especially in the US): Ryan provides them I love getting to know about US culture and seeing the overall infrastructure: Ryan provides them I love watching cooking videos: Ryan provides them I love watching vlogs and listening to people talking - Ryan does them and on top of that has a great voice Can't get enough of this channel!!

Pretty cool. Like most here mentioned, I have driven by that sign so many times (actually use it as a mental checkpoint) and was always curious where it ended. Hope you enjoy CA.

[@orapronobis2149]

So ttypical there are so many places such as that within the state. Some even had hotels that the water ran through and all the professed healing process. Look at the palm trees you can imagine there may have been lovely staying places. The salt water is like an exfoliant also so it makes sense that when a person gets out of it their body is smooth and the dead layer of skin has been removed. Interesting if you go on a search for other places like this. Oh, yes cool shades. I need to look them up. Your Maryland neighbor.

[@ckallen1546]

That is so cool. I’ve passed that road. And always wondered. But was too scared to explore!

[@Johnny_Kanuk]

The Flying J on the other side of I15 just remodeled and they currently are pretty good showers. I do agree that Loves has the best showers out there. Been by that Zzyzx Rd at least twice a month for 6 years and I always wanted to see what was down there. Thanks for for showing it.

[@Mattdrg_]

I ll be in your country this summer for vacation, great content really keep up the good work cheers from Italy

[@thoughtzbytreee]

We enjoy your videos. Please feel free not to rush through the scenery as you are driving. It makes us feel like we are traveling and seeing the road with you. Thanks

I think it's an interesting place - Calico is a desert ghost town, theme-park style. Just outside of Barstow in the Mojave Desert-designated the state of California's official “silver rush ghost town” in 2005-Calico started its life as a lawless 19th-century mining camp.

[@Ninjaplease636]

Right over in that area is the musical road. It plays a song when you drive down it. Its near lancaster CA.

[@roadbiker1590]

You should stop by and visit Hearst Castle in San Simeon, CA

[@saltywalt57]

Lol, the Chevron station at Baker, I can't believe how many times I filled up at that exact station.

[@vanessahenry7238]

Anyone who has lived in San Bernardino or Riverside County in California, has gone past this road on the way to Vegas! There even is a band named after it! I know Calico isn't far from it and yet to go there!

A couple of California suggestions. Calico Ghost town in Yermo is pretty cool. Ventura (where I live) is a little surfer town with quiet beaches. Solvang is a dutch town alittle bit north of Santa Barbara. A little farther north from there is Los Alamos which is a small historic town. It's really only open from Thursday - Sunday though.

[@garyburnett7378]

Get a Loves loyalty card and fill up on gas there when you can. Most of the truck stop chains have them. They usually have cheap gas. With every 100 gallons purchased you get a free shower or at least you used to. And don’t forget to leave a buck or two for the attendant if the place is clean. They work hard.

Zzyzx Road mystery solved! I took a photo of that sign, but didn’t venture down that road. In July, I had the entire month off and drove coast to coast covering 48 states in 24 days. Some of the highlights include, Henry Ford Museum, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, NFL Hall Of Fame, all 9/11 crash site memorials, National Corvette Museum, Florida Keys, New Orleans, Four Corners, Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Golden Gate Bridge, Multnomah Falls, Seattle Space Needle and Devil’s Tower. 13,482 miles in a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan. Also prefer Loves for showering, except Tacoma, Washington, Locked down overnight with armed guard in the morning!!! Averaged over 500 miles a day and 27 mpg’s for the entire trip. I only had a month, so I had to keep moving. Safe Travels my friend

[@yacobmyers]

I’ve lived in California my whole life and am currently residing in Santa Cruz, California where I went to school. Originally from Riverside I’ve made the drive up and down multiple times and completely agree that Loves is the best! Also I’ve done the drive to Vegas multiple times as a kid and now and I would recommend stopping at the BARSTOW DEL TACO. They basically do everything Barstow style and they are basically double meat for free. Only del taco to do that.

[@glogloe1797]

I stop at original Del Taco in YERMO (Not Barstow)every time on my way to Vegas. This is the exit near the tallest Thermometer. Yes, the original Del Taco is a larger version of their taco.
