    In Thrust We Trust

    For a second I thought you had found a picture of me..... But then I realized she isn't in the drivers seat. And there is no trunk. Or auxiliary tank. Or touring screen. Lol.

    Here I Go Again...

    Day 14 Today was just a drive day. But it was still enjoyable! Headed out of Des Moines to the east. Eventually came across Iowa-80. The World’s Largest Truck Stop. Fuel for the bike. Lunch for me. And a quick browse of all the stuff inside. It’s pretty cool. Lol Back on the...

    Here I Go Again...

    Day 13 So I got into the hotel last night about 5:30ish. Checked in, and first off- I don’t think I’ve ever been to a hotel that has this posted on the back of the door… Then I proceeded to explode all over the room, and relax. Thought “great! I can get the ride report organized and...

    Here I Go Again...

    Day 12 Today, I made my way out of Colorado. I live east. But I headed north. Lol. Look!! A marshmallow farm!!! HAHAHA!!! Maybe I’m starting to get a little delirious… The day started overcast, cool, and moist. I must be on a major route to Sturgis. Might explain why I was passing...

    Day 11 Saturday of SW-FOG. I took the morning to hang in the hotel and catch up on “me time”. Late morning, I took off and headed west into the Rocky Mountain National Park. Headed through the beautiful canyon, once again. Started to come into some mountains… Huge shout of thanks to...

    Here I Go Again...

    Day 10 10 days on the road… starting to become redundant and exhausting. I enjoy it still- just need something to look forward to. It’s not even the miles that are long. But the days are long. Mentally filling me every day. So much to see. So much excitement occurring. I’m so happy to be...

    Here I Go Again...

    Day 9… Started the day out in Leadville, CO again. And this is what I wake up to… (actually, this was a screenshot from yesterday, but it was similar this morning!) And yes, that is Fahrenheit. So I head north and east. Make my way over Fremont Pass, rt 91, again- what a fun road!! And...

    Here I Go Again...

    The clunking is still there- even after the changing of the brake pad. I'm not sure what it is.... But the rough road of Mt Evans did not help- it definitely brought all the clunking to the surface! lol. And I don't think I could manage the winters out here. It's a beautiful place to visit...

    I rode 141 two summers ago- and enjoyed it. But not enough to make it a point to ride it again.

    Here I Go Again...

    Thanks!I'm not sure if the elevation is bothering me.... I do notice a shortness of breath when walking with a "hustle". And especially any time above treeline. Otherwise, I'm not sure if everything else I feel is just because I'm 5/6 days into a trip and my normal "routine" has been...

    Here I Go Again...

    Day 5 Only Day 5? Man, feels like more than that! Awake early, but I lounge around a bit, and then I head down for breakfast. It’s in the restaurant connected to the hotel. Delicious biscuits and gravy!! Checking the weather looks like it is going to be a decent day. Decided to head...
