    Default Unbelievable

    So we finished Nevada today and into Utah! Overnighting in Salt Lake City! I think the most unbelievable part of the trip so far was how beautiful and Green Nevada was. The tumbleweeds haven't begun to tumble yet. Turns out that there was a motorcycle rally in Winnemucca and we saw a real three wheeler there!IMG_0088.jpgtoday we were forced to ryde in low 70 degree weather with sunshine and soft fluffy clouds floating by all day.IMG_0090.jpgTommorrow we meet up with a group from the San Diego SRA chapter for the continuation of our epic journey!

    This is an epic trip!
    My wife and I are living EVERY mile....
    I also can't tell you how GREAT our riding companions are... There are 8 of us total and things couldn't be smoother.

    We are averaging 600 miles a day to make it to Valcourt, and that alone is no small task in and of itselve. This is the best group I have ever ridden long distance with....hands down.

    Pyr8gal and HELLON3 are having a blast too (and they are covered with bugs from 6 states to prove it)

    Tomorrow Illinois, Indiana and Michigan....

    Let's ryde!

    Darn..... Looked at the pic of the two mugs of beer, now I want a juicy burger and wash it down with an ice cold beer. But I'm working.

    I know exactly how you felt. We try to drive (SUV not Spyder) through Utah every year.

    A friend once went & I asked how they liked it: 'We got fed up with all the red rocks' was the response. Have you no soul I thought.
