    Around 300 miles today, we settled down in the town park(called Schnack Park, lol). Hopefully we aren't booted from this pavilion, but there are sprinklers hidden everywhere but here. Tomorrow should bring us Colorado! Tired and missing my family, but it's been a great ride so far.Læs mere

    Camped for free in the local park. We're under a solid roof as you can see, next to the pool which is unfortunately closed. Hoping to make the mountains tomorrow.

    Sleeping in the park turned out to be a terrible idea last night. Lots of loud cars with louder stereos made for a terrible sleep. We really hit some pavement today and made it to BLM land outside of Walsenburg, CO. Very secluded with a great view of St. Charles peak. (The last pic is David's tent blowing away for the second time, lol)Læs mere

    A beautiful day of riding through the mountains! Unfortunately with my bike only being 400cc's, I slowed to nearly 45 mph at times, lol. People either love or hate us on these machines I've noticed. I earned the respect of a fellow riding here from New Zealand today at least. Only 88 miles from my original destination of Four Corners.Læs mere

  • Grand Canyon!...(almost)

    We stopped about 20 minutes short of the Canyon in the National Park. It was an excruciating 250 mile day of 50 mph cross winds at the New Mexico border. Sand hitting you like a sand blaster made for a long painful ride. We did hit several states and I'm proud of David for being a trooper. Tomorrow we will see the canyon, then off to our next adventure!Læs mere

    Found our way to camp ground outside of Monument Valley. Made some four legged friends then visited the road Forrest Gump ran on. Our day ended with riding through freezing rain. Down a mountain with, you guessed it,wind! Staying at a hostel in Durango for a warm, dry night.Læs mere

    Left Durango this morning around 0800. Temp was around 45 degrees, so not the worst. As we approached Wolf Creek Summit, temps dropped to nearly 35. Snow mist was blowing across wet roads. Terrifying experience to say the least. I'd say we averaged 300 miles before stopping at a motel so my ridin buddy can get real sleep. Neither of us are feeling great, hopefully feeling better tomorrow.Læs mere

    Unfortunately David came down with an illness, and I wasn't far behind. We decided to part ways this morning and I cannonballed 600 miles back home today. It was an incredible journey and I was honored to get to take the trip with David. Now to plan the next big adventure.Læs mere
