To all who took time from your life to follow us we hope you enjoyed ..... We had fun doing it an hope you will follow us some day .... God bless you all

Pro Football Hall of Fame. Cool place. Headed home tomorrow.

In Canton, Ohio at the pro football Hall of Fame. Probably stuck here for the day because of the rain all across PA. Welcome back to the east. Basically the only rain we have experienced for last four weeks. Go figure.

If you like corn and soy beans, you will love riding thru Iowa and Illinois. It goes for miles. No wonder they put in their gas. So much of it. Actually it's in lots of gas if u get my drift.

Illinois street bike .... Going to Indianapolis speedway tomorrow maybe they would be ok if we took it on a test ride ...

When on interstates, u need to watch for those big trucks. They hurt if they run over u. Especially at 75 mph. OUCH!!!!

After a long, long, long day in the saddle you need to take a break .

Lower left corner. Tragedy on I-80 at 80mph. Last thing to thru iits mind was his left wing. Now that'sfunny, I don't care who u r. Get'r done!

Another hot day. Long beautiful day ride in Upper Rocky Mountain NP. We r officially headed towards home. As we got out on what I call the corn belt highway ( because we will see corn 4 the next two to three days) we decided to get off the road because of the ugly clouds. As the pictures will show, the man up above was looking over us. Comments accepted.

In Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Long day. Rode on 50 to 70 miles of unpaved road. Very bad experience. One that Weill not be repeated. Pictures of bike do not do justice to the dust I ate.

My beautiful daughter relaxing. Montana fits her well.

Daughter and grand daughter taking over for me from Montana.

Bet u can't guess where we r? Only one guess allowed.

Well yesterday was a day of riding through scenic Idaho then into Wyoming. Lots of open space, no cars (yahoo), wildlife, and hot sun. Temperatures still in or close to above 100. HOT!! Even though the one sign says welcome to Idaho it was across the street from the Wyoming sign. The other photo is of the wide open fields and the hundreds of baled hay. Interesting HUH???

Great Falls, Montana to Missoula, MT. to Salmon, Idaho. Great ride but hot as hell. Temperatures ranged from 101to 107 depending on where we were in the valley. So of u Ron these back roads and have no watering holes u improvise. Somewhere on rte. 93 in Idaho. If Lewis & Clark can do, so can we.

Jim played golf, his bike was fixed and Eddie road up in the mountains and along the Missouri River

Often been asked what I do when my bike might need to b repaired. I carry golf stuff with me and so today I went golfing. Played with two teenagers. They rode on a cart. I walked. What's wrong with that picture? Oh well, I'm healthier?? Shot a score lower than today's temperature 86 vs. 92. Eddie took a tour of nearby canyons and valleys. Bike is fixed so we will b back on the road tomorrow.

New blip on our radar screen. This time my bike has a problem. We r still in Great Falls, Montana. I have a crack in my back exhaust pipe that hopefully will be corrects tomorrow. This will alter some of our travel destinations but not our adventuresome spirit. Tomorrow will b a down day for us. Eddie has his bike to do some tooling around. I carry my golf shoes just in case. But should that not do us there is a swimming pool, casinos, and of course bars and beer. You just need to stay creative. Stay tuned. Don't leave us yet.

In Great Falls getting tires put on bikes. Little over4,000 miles on bike so far on this trip. Photo of Olivia and I at the outhouse on the ranch.

Here's what we do when not riding the bikes.

Sunday. Day of rest. At Jim and Marsha's ( Nicole's mother) ranch in Helena, Montana.

Meet my new friends. The bull was ten feet in front of me and blocking the road until his family crossed. He eyed me very intensely. I decided not to argue. In yellowstone NP. Part of a herd 500 or more.

Bear Tooth mountain is easily id'ed. Also little town Of Cooke City near entrance of Yellowstone.

Rode over Bear Tooth Pass near Yellowstone NP. A must see of out here. Also some very angry skiies.

Sorry for break in blogging. We have been in the boonies for a couple of days. No cell service for two days. We r presently in Helena, Montana. Visiting with my daughter and grand daughter at her mothers ranch. Beautiful place.

In red Lodge, Montana. About to tackle Beartooth Pass. Cold and Rainy 10,272 foot on elevation, one beer for the road.

Sometimes it just gets ugly stormy in the Bighorn Mountains. Close enough to grab a lightening strike should u care to.

The sky's r angry on I-90 in Wyoming. Headed to Sheridan,WY. Plan to head off to Cook City outside of Yellowstone NP tomorrow.

Sturgis in the morning. Bikers and cold beer.

Crazy Horse monument in Custer. SD. The sky in the Black Hills looks angry.
