94. Linda Leary Taylor, sister of BMX legend Harry Leary, shares that for a relatively low cost, you can ride the casino boat. It takes you across to the casino on the California side. It is about a 10- or 15-minute ride. It drops you off and you can gamble or do whatever and it goes every 20 minutes. You can also take it back and it runs throughout the day. It’s great in the winter to take the casino boat over for dinner.

We invite you to listen to our conversation about BMX legend Harry Leary, with his sister Linda Leary Taylor and Kyle A. Huffman while walking over the London Bridge in Lake Havasu City, AZ.
