My latest ride
It all started with a friend asking me to throw together a ride at the end of July.
It started out we would ride to Thermopolis, up to Kirby and the Wyoming Whisky distillery, from there on to Mt Rushmore and the surrounding sights, Sturgis, Deadwood and such, then back West stopping by Little Big Horn. But he had to return home sooner than originally planned, so we had to cut the trip shorter. So it became a ride to Rushmore, made it there by Wednesday of last week, rode over to Deadwood had lunch and a drink, rode over to Sturgis and stayed the night at the Best Western there. First time ever and it was just a bit over $125 for the night. The next morning we rode to Spearfish and rode the Spearfish canyon, some paving going on there and they must have just oiled the road surface in preparation of laying asphalt, but the rain had started and we had to ride that sloppy surface. Rained from Spearfish all the way to just North of Lusk WY. Now I have to get that gunk off the pipes. Route back was via Laramie to Steamboat Springs and US 40 to Salt lake. Just rolled back into home yesterday afternoon. What a ride! And he likes to ride everywhere side by side, even on the narrower two lane back roads. That can get pretty exciting with some larger oncoming vehicles, I would try to tuck closer to his bike as best as I could to give a bit more space to my left. Ex motor officer...

He needed both hands to keep that iron butt from falling off.

Here's a few...
One is all that is left of Full Throttle, The bar maid said they were rebuilding it (moving it?) to where the Broken Spoke is located further outside of town.

I did like 25 miles a few weeks ago. It was awesome.
In short, I'm jealous.
