    Iowa's 50 Rides 1 Nation

    Iowa = More Corn

    2021年8月11日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌧 77 °F

    Yesterday at 14:00 I stopped at a dealership hoping for a sofa. It was such a small place that they didn't have anything for tired riders. No chairs, coffee, or water. Just a toilet and 4 of those terrible wood chairs outside. So, I laid down on the sidewalk and promptly fell asleep. At 15:00 I got up, used their toilet, and went on my way. No one even acknowledged I was there 🤣.

    I hit nasty weather all day, lightning and rain, so I was pretty beat by the time I rolled into Des Moines at 20:00. 13 hours on the bike, if you take off the hour I napped 😉. I hit 13 dealerships yesterday 😳, which is probably the most in one day so far. I really don't know any more.

    I left Des Moines at 06:01 this morning. The Quality Inn actually had a hot breakfast of eggs and sausage. Not a sandwich to microwave, but real scrambled eggs and patty sausage. Nice start to the morning for a change.

    Not long after I got going, I pulled over on the side of the road to watch a magnificent red orb begin to rise over the corn fields. I really don't like waking up before the sun, but getting to see the sunrise makes it tolerable. Sort of 😉. I couldn't help but think about my friend who suddenly passed away a few days ago from COVID 😢.

    Iowa looks pretty much like Minnesota and Wisconsin, corn and soy fields with a few cows here and there. I saw a couple of pig farms--more like smelled them--but really it's just more corn.

    Did you know there is a National Balloon Museum, as in hot air balloons? It's in Indianola, IA. Near Albia, IA, I stumbled upon the Welcome Home Soldier Monument and did a u-turn to take some pictures. Very peaceful. I also hit Iowa's 50 Rides 1 Nation location, the state's oldest courthouse (1840).

    Now, I'm stopped at Sonic for a chicken sandwich, tater tots, and limeade. I hope that made you think of Ron White, but if not, then watch this: https://youtu.be/neUaSTSKFZc.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Minnesota's 50 Rides 1 Nation

    New States: Minnesota and Wisconsin

    2021年8月10日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F

    Yesterday was my longest day so far at 727.9 miles. I rode through Superior National Forest, which was a very lonely stretch of road. I hit Minnesota's 50 Rides 1 Nation stop at a lighthouse on Lake Superior. I also hit numerous dealerships; I've completely lost count.

    I got to the hotel around 20:00 (14 hours on the bike 😳) and spent the night in Wisconsin to the east of St. Paul. I was rolling at a few minutes after 06:00 again this morning with another long day planned. Unfortunately, I've been in and out of rain gear already, and it looks like I'm going to hit some worse weather this afternoon, so I might cut the day short. Maybe 😉.

    Cows, Corn, Soy, and Sunflowers

    2021年8月9日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 79 °F

    So, South Dakota is pretty boring once you get away from the Black Hills and Badlands. It's just a lot of cows, corn, soy, and sunflowers with a tiny town by the side of the road every 50 miles or so. Same for Minnesota, at least so far.

    Yesterday, I made it to Montevideo, MN, around 19:00. Not a long day, just a boring one.

    I left this morning at 06:00 in very dense fog that didn't clear until 08:30 when I neared Minneapolis. I've just been hitting dealerships, but I saw a beautiful bald eagle soaring over me and an old covered bridge slowing collapsing by the side of the road.

    Now I'm getting gas. Luckily, the Minnesota stations seem to all have 91 octane, unlike South Dakota's with only 87 at many. I had two fills with 87, but Willie chugged through it.

    Great Ride / Willie Towed! / Where Am I?

    2021年8月8日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F

    Yesterday was a fantastic ride! We finished Iron Mountain Road, then cut through Custer State Park. Then we turned up Needles Highway, which is just incredibly beautiful. George hasn't been here before, so it was a blast seeing his face when we stopped at the overlook just before threading the Eye of the Needle. We also stopped at Hole in the Wall, a small campsite and hiking area with an interesting cave. I thought it had something to do with Jesse James, and it does, just not this Hole in the Wall. That one is in Kaycee, WY. (More info: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/hole-in-the…)

    After those twisty roads and seeing some big horn sheep on the road, we stopped in Hill City for a late lunch. Then it was back north to Sturgis by way of Nemo and Vanocker Canyon Road, my favorite!! Broad, sweeping turns between vertical rock walls with pungent evergreens carpeting the canyon floor. It's the best.

    We got into Sturgis and took George down Main Street where all the bikes park. With all the traffic, it's a pain on your clutch hand, but you have to do it at least once per rally 😉. I was planning to wave at Willie as we passed him--remember, I left my bike parked in town night before last--but when we got there, he was gone! As it turns out, I unknowingly parked in a zone that is no parking between 02:00 and 06:00, so he was towed 😳. I found him while the others took George to get his picture in front of the town sign. Ben took me to get Willie and helped me come up with the cash. Thank you!!!!

    Anyway, crisis resolved fairly quickly, so Ben and I met the gang back in town for a surprise Sturgis Virgin ceremony for George consisting of a little spanking by scantily clad young women. He was a great sport 🤣🤣!! Ben and I had to cut out after that to pack and figure out our routes for today, so we said our goodbyes there.

    We left the hotel at 10:00 this morning with Ben heading southwest back to California while Im heading due east towards Minnesota. I'm stopped somewhere in South Dakota hoping I can find gas stations every 100 miles.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Iron Mountain Road

    2021年8月7日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 77 °F

    After Wall Drug yesterday, Ben and I met Dano at his campground and we rode down to Deadwood and up Spearfish Canyon. We stopped for a bite at Latchstring Restaurant in Savoy. Yummy food and great views.

    Dano cut out when we got back to Sturgis, while Ben and I met up with four friends--Lumpy, George, Chris, and Tammy--at the karaoke place Oasis then One Eyed Jacks. We had a great time, so I left Willie parked in town and rode back with Ben.

    Today, the six of us are making a loop and are now stopped in the middle of Iron Mountain Road. I love riding here!!

    Badlands & Wall Drug

    2021年8月6日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 81 °F

    Yesterday we didn't do anything but watch some movies, which was a welcome day off.

    This morning Ben and I are doing the Badlands Loop from Interior, SD, to Wall, SD. Although he's been to Sturgis before, he hasn't been out here, so it's been a nice morning watching his eyes pop and mouth drop when he sees the natural magnificence of the Badlands. We also saw a huge herd of Buffalo.

    We're at Wall Drug now for lunch. Great day so far.

    50,000-Mile Service

    2021年8月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F

    After Little Bighorn, Ben and I continued to Theodore Roosevelt National Park for North Dakota's 50 Rides 1 Nation photo. We stopped briefly in the Painted Canyon, which was beautiful but would have been stunning if the sun had been out. We then turned south to spend the night in Bowman, ND. It was a very long day with lots of very boring interstate miles.

    We left the hotel at 06:30 again still heading south. The weather held for us as we.crossed into South Dakota, but the paved roads did not. We decided to take the dirt anyway, which stayed decent for the most part. The best part about the dirt, though, was seeing so many animals so close to the road. Pronghorns, mule deer, whitetail deer, turkeys, and hawks. Amazing.

    After about 20 miles and crossing into Montana, we finally popped out on pavement before I ran out of gas. I had to fill up with 87 octane, but that's better than the alternative.

    Once in Wyoming, we beelined for Devils Tower National Monument to take a photo for the 10 Rides for 2021. Then we beelined to Gillette, WY, where we're now stopped for service at Deluxe HD. Because of the Sturgis Rally, they can't do my full 50,000-mile service, but they'll get most of it done. I'll get the rest caught up on the next service.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Little Bighorn Battlefield Natl Monument

    2021年8月3日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 77 °F

    Yesterday, Dano, Ben, and I rode towards Bozeman for a late lunch before heading into a canyon Dano wanted to show us. Unfortunately, by the time we finished lunch, a massive storm was rolling in on us, so we beelined back to Dano's house. We made it just before the pelting rain broke.

    We spent the rest of the evening chatting and watching some TV. Ben and I enjoyed comparing the 1988 movie "Young Guns" to the museum we went through in Lincoln, NM, where the Lincoln County War took place. The movie is fairly accurate for a Hollywood production.

    Ben and I left at 06:30 this morning ready for a very long day. We have already taken our photo at the Billings, MT, Harley dealership, and are now stopped at the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. What an incredible place.

    End of the Rally But Not the Ride

    2021年8月1日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 79 °F

    The last leg of the rally ended in Missoula, but we stopped for a late lunch at The Butcher's Nook in Plains. So delicious!!

    We lost our two additional riders when we stopped, but the five of us rolled into Missoula like the badasses we felt we were. We rode nearly 3,000 miles over 9 days from the Mexican border with Texas through 5 states to the Canadian border with Montana. Whew!!

    We ended the rally at Grizzly HD with a nice meal, a really nice finisher's t-shirt, and door prizes. It was truly and epic adventure with four terrific people. Thanks so very much for a great ride, Ben, Bob, Denny, and Lumpy!!! Remember, NO WHINING!!

    Today, Ben, Lumpy, and I have ridden to the Lolo Pass Visitors Center to get Idaho's 50 Rides 1 Nation photo. It is really smokey here and there are fires everywhere. We can see the pinpoints of smoke coming out of the trees. A firefighter covered in soot even took our photo!

    B2B Day 10 Hello, Canada!

    2021年7月31日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 88 °F

    After Logan Pass, the seven of us made our way into West Glacier, where Bill and Chris split off to continue while we stopped for a quick bite of huckleberry ice cream, huckleberry pie, and huckleberry flavored coffee. I miss huckleberries.

    The five of us eventually turned up I Kalispell for the night. There was a Mexican restaurant next door to our hotel, so Ben and I met Lumpy for dinner, then took a short walk to stretch our legs before crashing.

    This morning is the big day! The five of us have ridden north from Kalispell to wave at the Canadian border, completing our Border to Border Posse Ride! We're not completely done with the rally however.

    We picked up a couple of solo riders somewhere along the way, and we're now stopped in Thompson Falls for fuel. We're so close to the fires that we can see flames on the mountain side 😳, but the roads are open so we're pressing on to Missoula.

    B2B Day 9 Glacier National Park

    2021年7月30日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

    This morning, Lumpy, Ben, and I picked up Bob at his hotel, then went back to Bozeman to meet Denny. The five of us are riding with Bill, the Rally Coordinator, and Chris, the Regional Manager, just in case Ben, Lumpy, and Bob can't get through the Going to the Sun checkpoint. They weren't able to get a Timed Entry ticket. If some of us get in and some don't, then no one has to ride alone today. I think it's a great plan.

    First, we stopped at the state capitol in Helena, which was quite pretty. Then it was onto the park via US Highway 89, a lonely, almost desolate stretch of road.

    When we got to the checkpoint, Bill and Chris went ahead of us five. I then pulled up to present my ticket. When the attendant asked if the others also had tickets, I said, "Yes, we're on a Harley rally together along with the two guys just ahead of us." He said okay and we were all allowed in 😁. Yay!!

    Off we all went, squiggling up steep, twisty turns and switchbacks to reach the Visitors Center at Logan Pass. Although not very high in elevation, it marks one spot along the western Continental Divide. The sign is Montana's 50 Rides 1 Nation location, and we're getting lots of photos for each other now. Another epic day!!!

    B2B Day 8 Part 2 Yellowstone Nat'l Park

    2021年7月29日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

    ...CONTINUED FROM PART 1

    After making it through the 40-minute red light, we continued down Beartooth Highway into Cooke City, Montana, where stopped for a late lunch.

    Next stop...Yellowstone National Park! We're only going from the northeast entrance to the north entrance, but it's still very exciting for me.

    Despite the smokey haze from forest fires, the park is magnificent. Best of all, we saw a ton of buffalo. One huge male crossed the road just a few feet in front of my bike 😳. Too close for me but absolutely magnificent. We had to completely stop three times for buffalo in the road and once for a herd of young cows 🤣.

    In the distance a massive storm was rolling in on us, so we stopped to don our rain gear. And it's a really good thing we did because we got hammered! Even through jackets and leather, the rain actually hurt as it pounded us. By the time we reached Mammoth Springs, I was totally wiped out. We stopped for just a minute, but kept going because we still had quite a ways to go past Bozeman into Belgrade for the night.

    We made it to the dealership for dinner, but while we were there, another storm front blew in...literally. We chased down plates and jackets and raffle tickets, then hightailed it to the hotel one mile away. We were soaked by the time we got there and still hungry. Lumpy was in the same hotel, so we ran across the parking lot to a deli to get food and met in Lumpy's room for a picnic like dinner. It was a terrific way to end a crazy and wonderful day!

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    B2B Day 8 Part 1 Beartooth Pass

    2021年7月29日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 64 °F

    Yesterday was a terrific ride, but a very long one as we made our way through the heart of Wyoming. We passed through Rawlins up to Lander, then Shoshoni to Thermopolis to Meeteetse before finally rolling into Cody. There weren't many gas stations, and I was thankful I had my 1-gallon can with me as we stopped in the middle of nowhere so I could top up.

    We were too late for dinner at the HD, so we met at Buffalo Bill's Irma Hotel and Restaurant for a wonderful prime rib dinner. What an amazing, historical place!

    Ben and I had the Colonel Cody room with two luxurious queen beds, a horsehair settee, cut glass lamps, and completely tiled bathroom with brass fixtures. Just wow! Irma was Buffalo Bill's daughter and it was simply amazing knowing I was walking in the footsteps of such historical people.

    After dinner, Ben and I went down the street to play pool at a local hole in the wall, then crashed hard for an early morning.

    We didn't want to be late because today we're riding through Beartooth Pass and Yellowstone National Park!

    Back down to the five is is, we headed north into Montana to take the 308 across to Red Lodge. Along the 308 we passed the site of the Smith Mine, Montana's worst coal mine disaster that killed 74 men. (More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_Mine_disaster)

    Soon after we made it to Red Lodge just to find the Harley dealership was closed and the Hell's Angels were having a summer retreat 😳 🤣 😳. After stopping for gas at a Sinclair's and to ride the saddled dinosaur 🤦, we pressed on back into Wyoming along Beartooth Pass.

    We were fortunate the pass was open because there was still quite a bit of snow at the nearly 11,000-foot summit. We stopped for a photo with the sign, which is Wyoming's 50 Rides 1 Nation location.

    After coming back down, we took a breather at Long Lake with the sun shining and water rippling. It was so peaceful. We pressed on but before long came to a stop. Construction on the highway took it down to one lane, and the red light lasts about 30 minutes. So here we are next to Beartooth Lake waiting for the light to change, taking photos by the lake, and chatting with the two HAs in front of us. What a day...and it's only half way done!

    Well, Ben and I hit all nine of the area HDs yesterday, plus the Garden of the Gods photo, and we were still able to pick up my bike and get to Thunder Mountain Harley in time for the rally dinner. Winning!

    The four of us plus three others we met last night met this morning and rode to the Cheyenne HD for coffee and doughnuts and to meet up with Lumpy. He's leading us today through his old stomping grounds.

    He took us through old downtown Cheyenne, then we stopped at Interstate 80's highest elevation point at Summit Rest Area, which also has a lot of information about I-80 "Lincoln Highway," a tribute to President Lincoln, a sign about the first person to cross America on a motorcycle, and more. What a really cool rest area that even has prairie dogs almost close enough to pet.

    Lumpy then took us on Snowy Range Scenic Byway through Medicine Bow National Forest. We stopped at Snowy Range Pass at an elevation of almost 11,000 feet. Beautiful but brrr 🥶.

    We've warmed up now that we're at a lower elevation, and we're stopped for gas in Saratoga, WY. What a great day, yet again.

    B2B Day 6 New Front Tire & All the HDs

    2021年7月27日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F

    Our drive through Rocky Mountain National Park was exciting and stunning despite the heavy traffic. We didn't make any further stops in the park and continued on to our overnight stop in Loveland, CO.

    We're in Loveland for two nights which is great because I need a new front tire. So this morning, Ben and I rode to Greeley HD and dropped off my bike. Now, we're doubled up and are in the process of hitting all the Fort Collins/Denver/Colorado Springs area dealerships.

    We're stopped now at a Starbucks for a shot of energy on our way to Garden of the Gods for another 10 Rides for 2021 photo.

    B2B Day 5 Rocky Mountain National Park

    2021年7月26日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

    After lunch, we continued making our way north, passing through Grand Mesa National Forest on our way to Glenwood Springs. After settling into our hotels, we met for a "historical" drink at Doc Holliday's Saloon, then an amazing dinner at the Riviera. Best of all, Ben, Lumpy, and I climbed up to Linwood Cemetery to visit ol' Doc.

    It was quite a climb, but the view of the city was exceptional from the top. No one is quite sure where Doc lies exactly, but there is a respectable marker and memorial deep among the old tombstones. The attached photo explains more.

    We awoke to a beautifully clear morning. We split up today, so Ben, Bob, and I left Glenwood Springs excited to be heading for Rocky Mountain National Park. The National Park system has implemented a new thing this year called Timed Entry. Our tickets were for 11:00 to 13:00, which meant we could only enter the park during that window. Therefore, we decided to do a picnic lunch in the park.

    We're noshing at the Holzwarth Historic Site not too far into the park from the Grand Lake entrance. Awesome day so far!!

    2021年7月25日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F

    Well, we hit rain again after leaving Farmington, but made it to Durango just in time for the dealership-hosted dinner. Then it was crash hard at the hotel.

    We were up way too early at 06:00 to get some local grub at the Durango Diner. This place is simply amazing. They make their hash brown by grating the potatoes onto the grill 😱. The portions are huge, the cost is very low, and the green chile sauce is out of this world.

    We hit the Million Dollar Highway (US 550) at about 07:30 and slowly made our way into Silverton. We've all been there before, so we didn't stop there or anywhere else for very long.

    We're having lunch now at Butch's Cafe in Delta, CO. Breakfast all day and down home cookin'. Yum!

    B2B Day 3

    2021年7月24日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 79 °F

    When we left Fort Stanton, it was in a downpour. Lightning, lots of rain, and road spray made the afternoon unpleasant, but we had to keep rolling. We finally made it to Madrid (pronounced MAD-rid) where the movie "Wild Hogs" ended and where Maggie's Diner still stands.

    We finally made it to the Santa Fe Harley dealership, but missed dinner (we really didn't miss much though). With all the storms, we were beat and split to our hotels from there.

    This morning was beautiful and clear as we headed from Santa Fe towards Taos. Since we have all been this way before, I tried to find a different route, but missed my turn. We came out just west of the Rio Grande Gorge and headed back east to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Angel Fire so Ben could grab his 50 Rides 1 Nation photo. We doubled back through Taos and stopped for lunch at Toribios, the same little Mexican cafe we stopped at on the Old Spanish Trail rally. Still great!!

    Then we headed back west over the Gorge again, past the Earthship Biotecture community, and into Carson National Forest, which is a beautiful, twisty, sweeping ride. (More info: EarthshipBiotecture.com)

    Again, because we've all been here before, we deviated from the rally route to head further west to Farmington, home to the Four Corners dealership, where we are now. Unfortunately, the weather is not cooperating, so we're debating whether or not to put on our rain gear again ☹️.

    2021年7月23日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 72 °F

    After our stop at White Sands yesterday, we rode through some beautiful country to end the day in Ruidoso. We hadn't stopped for lunch, so we went straight to a steak house for a great meal together before splitting off to our respective hotels.

    This morning, we headed out again and our first major stop was in Lincoln, the seat of Lincoln County where the Lincoln War took place. The movie "Young Guns" immortalized the violence and is surprisingly somewhat historically accurate. We also visited Fort Stanton, where we are now, which wasn't a fort for very long, but has survived because it became a tuberculosis hospital.

    The weather is getting very bad ☹️.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Border to Border Posse Ride Day 1

    2021年7月22日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 64 °F

    After a drive-by tour of El Paso yesterday, Ben and I checked into the rally and had a nice dinner with almost 250 old and new friends. We ran into two riding buddies from the Old Spanish Trail rally, Lumpy and Bob. A friend of Ben's from San Francisco, Denny, also showed up, so the five of us are riding together today.

    So far it's a great day. We took a photo at the Big Chile Inn and stopped at White Sands National Monument for another 10 Rides for 2021 photo.

    At noon today we were just passing through Cloudcroft. What a quirky little town.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    New Rear Tire

    2021年7月20日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 72 °F

    By the time I made it to Southwest Fort Worth, I had passed through the storm. I had a couple of close calls though. First, my rear tire broke lose as I was making a right turn. I felt like a dirt track racer going sideways through a turn. But I recovered and kept going. The second time was on I-20 after passing a crash. When the traffic opened, I hit the throttle too hard and broke the rear tire loose. It squiggled but corrected and we were off again.

    I spent the night in Lubbock without further incident and was at Wild West HD at 08:00 this morning to replace that rear tire. Nice sunny skies today 😁.

    After the tire, I made it to the Yoakum County Courthouse giant arrow for a stop on the Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas. Now I'm stopped at Champion HD in Roswell, NM.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    More Rain

    2021年7月19日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌧 77 °F

    Yesterday I made it back to my barn to adjust my pack a little and see family.

    This morning I rode through another terrible storm to get to Tyler for an appointment. Now I'm getting gas before jumping on I-20 and dealing with the traffic around Dallas and Fort Worth...while still riding in the rain 😩.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Home Depot Visit

    2021年7月18日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 88 °F

    Remember how I dropped my camera? Well, I got a new one. This time the lanyard is not going to break. I've stopped at Home Depot and picked up some parts to make a metal lanyard 😁.

    So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

    Day 117-120 mileage: 20.5 🤣 (total 28563.4) [This mileage is so low it's a wonder I even started the bike. 🤣]    もっと詳しく
