Washington State to MidWest…

I’ve been a little lazy the last couple weeks and I haven’t posted for a while….To tell you the truth, it takes a little time to update this blog and we have been putting on a lot of miles lately, so I’ll try to summarize what we’ve been doing this past week. After Colville Washington, the four of us made our way into Idaho and ended a full day of riding in a quaint little town named Orofino which started out as a little gold mining town…the goal was to make our way to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming…still a long ways away!!! Over the next couple of days we hit the asphalt and packed on the miles to Yellowstone, nothing too much to report other than the fact that we ran into one of the worst rain/hail storms I’ve ever been through, cars were pulling over but we pushed on to at least the closest motel we could find….maybe not the smartest thing, but it sounded much better than getting pummeled by hail at the side of the road…Anyhow, we did eventually make Yellowstone safe and sound and experienced Old Faithful (even though it was pouring rain at the time)…

The crazy twisty "Spiral Highway" in Idaho on our way to Yellowstone....

"Thar she blows!!!!"...Bill and Liz are posing....a little hard to see cause of the weather...

In the visitor center drying off and warming up......Adam, Liz and Bill

Leavin Yellowstone, we run into a few of these guys....they were all over the place!!

It had been several days into our trip and it was time for Bill and Liz to start making their way back to Vancouver (they had to get back for work) and Adam and I to start making our way to Mt Rushmore in South Dakota….We spent part of the day making our way out of Yellowstone (and running into a lot of buffalo) and by mid day, we hit a fork in the road….Bill and Liz continued on north towards the Canada/US border, Adam and I headed east to make our way towards South Dakota…..

Road work delay on hwy 212....notice all the bikes on the road.....

Hwy 212 criss crosses the Montana/Wyoming State line climbing to over 10,000 ft...hence the snow...it was a little chilly, but the views were incredible!!

More snow heading east on Hwy 212.......

We were hoping to make Spearfish South Dakota that day, about 400 miles, but once again we ran in some bad Wyoming weather….lightning, thundershowers and hail…once again the crappy Wyoming weather cuts our riding day short…we veer off to a town called Sheridan and booked into the Best Western for the night….Next day it’s into Spearfish, Sturgis and Mt Rushmore in South Dakota…All of these stops are relatively close together and make up an incredible area of small western towns, beautiful motorcycle roads and incredible scenery (this is probably one of the reasons why Sturgis is home to one of the largest motorcycle rallies in North America)….definite deserves a return visit!!!

 

Riding thru "Main Street USA".....

Mt Rushmore....here's the boys....most common comment "I thought it was bigger"

Us with the boys in the background.....

Riding around Mt Rushmore....some of the roads/tunnels were barely big enough for car to get through....

So after touring around South Dakota for a couple of days, it was time to start heading back west towards Monterey CA for the races at Laguna Seca…….
