    West Meets East Posse Ride Day 1

    2022年9月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 59 °F

    Today was the first day of the West Meets East Posse Ride, the 25th Anniversary ride! We had a great dinner at Emerald City HD and I got to see lots of folks from last year's Posse Ride and from other rallies. Great start!

    2022年9月5日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌙 68 °F

    Today was the first riding day of the rally, from Lynnwood WA to Spokane WA. John, Donna, and I rode through North Cascades National Park where I got my last passport stamp (MISSION COMPLETE!) and they got their 50 Rides 1 Nation photos for Washington. We also stopped at a great overlook at Grand Coulee Dam, the largest concrete structure in the world. Great day!!

    Posse Ride Day 3

    2022年9月6日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F

    Great day down US95 and ID55 through Lewiston, Grangeville, Riggins, and McCall. Tom joined us today!

    Saw a hawk carrying a snake! Rode down Old Spiral Highway! Had lunch in Grangeville. Went past the fire camp battling the forest fires. Breathed a lot of smoke. Very frustrated over the Class A motorhome with dinghy who wouldn't pull over in the twisties, but made it through over 100°F temps into Boise just in time for dinner and the raffle. Awesome ride!!!

    Posse Ride Day 4

    2022年9月7日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌙 84 °F

    Left Boise bound for Salt Lake City. The four of us stopped for great BBQ at Piggy Sue's food truck in Albion, UT. Then we stopped at Golden Spike National Historic Park. Unfortunately, the real spikes are at Stanford University (2 of them), 1 is in New York, and 1 is gone. But it was a great place to visit anyway. We arrived in Ogden, UT, pretty early, but we're really beat up from the over 100°F heat. We went to our hotels first, then John and I decided to forego dinner at the dealership and just hang out in the air conditioning with a couple of beers. Worked out great!

    Posse Ride Day 5

    2022年9月8日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    John and I left Ogden at 06:15 this morning 😴😴😴. But it was worth it. We hit three dealers in Salt Lake City, then hightailed it to Moab. We picked up a picnic lunch at a grocery store and rode to the entrance of Arches National Park! Woohoo! We got to the gate at exactly 12:00, which was the beginning of our timed entry ticket. Perfect!

    After a stop at the visitor center, we rode through the park, stopping at just about every pulloff and viewpoint. We had lunch at Panorama Point, which was incredibly beautiful, but so very hot. 103°F 🥵🥵🥵. By the time we made it back to the entrance, we had drunk all of our Gatorade and water. Luckily we were able to refill all of our bottle and take a break in the shade before riding out.

    Somewhat cooler, we left the park and took UT128 north along the Colorado River. This is one of my favorite roads, and I enjoyed watching John's head turn on a swivel as he tried to take in the scenery.

    Despite the heat, we had a wonderful day that ended with dinner at the Grand Junction HD. Winning!!!

    Back to Georgia

    2022年9月19日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌙 77 °F

    Today was bittersweet. After a wonderful month of traveling with John, I had to say goodbye, but I got to say hello to my best friend Micki in Georgia. It's great to see her again, as always.

    This Is The End--Part 1

    2022年9月22日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F

    With over 137,000 miles on the odometer and over 60,000 on the trip, Willie's belt gave out on me today only 250 miles from home. So close! Luckily, I was very close to Warhawk HD in Monroe, AL, and was able to make it to them before it completely broke.

    Because I am so close to home, I decided to leave the bike with them--they'll get the belt and pulley parts on Saturday--and take an early morning Greyhound to Tyler, TX, where my awesome uncle is going to pick me up.

    Every day is an adventure!

    I suppose I'll call this the end of the trip, although I still have a couple thousand miles to ride in order to complete the Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas.

    Final stats and a wrap up will be in Part 2 later this month.

    Not Quite The End After All

    2022年10月2日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F

    Well, my last post was a touch premature on the The End bit. After over a week off the bike and doing a whole bunch of adulting stuff, today I got back on the road to hit some dealerships and grab a few Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas pics. Even on a Saturday, Dallas traffic is abominable, but I survived.

    Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas

    2022年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌙 68 °F

    Today I began a route in Texas to pick up the remaining MCGTTX stops and dealership photos. I didn't leave the barn until 09:00 this morning, so it's been a long day. Now, I've pitched my tent at a Shell station and hope to get some rest.

    Another Afternoon At Service

    2022年10月5日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 77 °F

    I actually had a decent rest last night in my tent at the Shell station. I woke at 06:00, got some coffee and breakfast, packed up, and rolled by 07:00.

    Watching the sunrise while riding a motorcycle has become one of the most enjoyable part of my days. Sunsets on the warm beach with a cold beer are better, but I digress 😉.

    Anyway, I checked off three more MCGTTX stops before heading to the Odessa HD, where I hoped to have my 140,000-mile service done and get a leak fixed. Long story short: They were able to fix me today. Yippee! Also, the dealership in Monroe, LA, who recently replaced my belt and pulley paid $150 to fix the leak that was coming from the crankcase. Yippee again!

    After a free Chick-fil-A salad, five hours of waiting, and $500 out of my own pocket, I had Willie back and decently cleaned. But when I went outside, the sky was rolling with clouds. Instead of riding in the rain while both the sun and the temperature dropped, I decided to grab a hotel for the night. Luckily, I found a Travelodge for barely over $50. Yippee! Pretty good day.

    Oh! And I got to see the new Low Rider ST El Diablo in person today! There are only 1500 😱. The photos don't do it justice. Absolutely gorgeous!!!! I ❤️❤️❤️❤️ this bike!!!

    Rain Delay

    2022年10月7日, アメリカ ⋅ ☁️ 81 °F

    Last night I pitched my tent next to the bike under cover at the HD. At 04:00, it began to rain. "No problem," I thought, and I turned over to go back to sleep. Then I got water in my face. Turns out, the top of the "cover" wasn't solid, so I began packing up hoping it would stay a sprinkle until I could get to the gas station. I got lucky and was only slightly damp by the time I made it to real cover.

    The storm was moving slowly northeast, so I waited until after 09:00 to let it get well in front of me. Despite going under the speed limit and hanging.out at a Whataburger for a two-hour lunch, I caught the rain, so I decided to call it a day by cashing in some hotel points.

    I found a great historic hotel in old downtown McAllen (the one near Brownsville, not Dallas). They even let me park on the sidewalk by the front walk!

    Now I'm having a Netflix night and staying dry. Winning!

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