ATL to Idaho and Everywhere Else

[ricks.06]

OK- so I wrote a lengthy report on my adventures and then promptly erased them before I saved. Out of pure frustration, here is a shorter post with some pics and a link to a map of our entire route. The pics are in chronological order based on our route. Awesome roads, good times.

Link to map

Hauled *** to St Louis on day 1.

Fine dining in Kansas

The Kansas Hilton

The only destination for the trip through Kansas- the geographical center of the lower 48

On the the Black Hills

Got Bugs?

Taming the wild beast at Wall Drug Store

Some cool bikes at the Motorcycle museum in Sturgis

High Mileage Harley???

Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse

The bike at Devil's Tower

Cheif Joseph Highway. Saw a grizzly near the road. No pics

Beartooth Pass- I never get sick of going over this road!

Sunrise in Hamilton MT

Glacier- workin some weird part in my hair after a week without my bathing!

Going to the sun highway

At the top

So sad- Great bars in White Fish

Kooks in Idaho

Rain in Idaho- This explains the lack of pics. If you're going to piss on me for 2 days, I'm not going to take pics of your state

Well, I did get one outside of Sun Valley

A bird knocked the vent cover off of my helmet. I think he got the worst of it. This goofy patch worked all the way back to the ATL!

Somewhere outside of Moab

Same area

Snow in the Rockies- 550 to Durango was awesome!

Continental Divide on thw way back

Nothing to see after Eastern Colorado

...If I had a friggin' nickel.

Taming the wild beast at Wall Drug Store

Dude, I hope you used a tripod for this one, 'cause it seems it would've been awfully humbling giving your camera to

a bystander and then climbing up on a giant rabbit.

Nice report & entertaining captions, ricks.06.

I think it went something like this, "Excuse me Mam. Would you mind taking a picture of me mounting this large Jackelope? I'm going to approach it from the rear so please stand back a bit."

Nice report. It seems that that the work is going very very slowly at lazy horse. It was that way when I was there several years ago.

Did you stay for the show that is shown in the evenning at Mt. Rushmore?

 

[dcarver]

Fun read -you covered some miles too.

We didn't. We were just passing through for the day. To be honest the crowds/traffic really had us wanting to get moving. Plus, we have a laser show at Stone Mountain here in GA and Rushmore reminded me of a larger version

I hear ya. When I looked at the proposed finished model of the monument, I was shocked at how much work was still needed. I'll bet the crew that cuts my lawn could finish it in a weekend

Great report! Was just out by Badlands and Blackhills, two weeks ago, in the cage. Thanks for sharing.

 

[UHOH]

good report on your trip.

see you did a zig zag in Idaho; hope it added to the trip.

 

[Dr. Bones]

Very nice pics and ride report, even though it's the condensed version!

Quite alot of miles!

Just running from the rain. It caught me! Other than the rain, Idaho was great. I'm goint back next year to ride 21 and 24. Cool roads but too wet to rip
