Hey y'all we're still on the road. We only made it to Cheyenne yesterday but , it took us 11 hours of riding. We did some serious meandering. Today will find us in Rapid City. Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse.

Lot's of wildlife at NAFO

Great meeting you Rob. I look forward to more pics and stories about your adventure.
Hey Mike it was great to meet you too. Now when you make your smartass coments on my pics I know who it's coming from. (lol). There is something to be said for being unemployed as I'm still on the road. No job to rush home to yet.

Stay tuned.

 
Just to remind you that Wyomming is a very flat place too. We passed through Wyomming didn't see much. Lot's of trains though.

Mt Rushmore was a great ride up with a great backdrop.

Thanks for the pictures. :clapping:

It was nice seeing you again Rob and meeting your daughter. Hope she wasn't too bored with all the old people.

Looks like Tom Cale has got a new fancier riding jacket now. Hi Tom!

 
Very cool that you & your daughter will have this adventure to share forever.

Way to go Rob!

:clapping:

 
Hey 7xray I've never seen this critter before in my life. Is it a deer or an antilope?

 
MMMM Mitchy is not as focused as I am on the trip.

Cooollll!

Passing across the yellow line on a curve across a side intersection. Do you get extra points for that? :clapping:

And Smitty complains about my passes. :D

j/k...I'm sure the telephoto has something to do with that shot. ;)

When we came across the states there was something missing .... I just couldn't put my finger on it. Then as we were entering Ontario it hit me.TREES! there's no trees in the prairies. Also in the pic on the horizon was 8 Hells Angels from Quebec.

What a great ride! Thanks for sharing. As a father of a 24-year-old daughter, I envy you this time with her. Daughters are so special!! I'm glad she got to experience this time with you. Years later she will treasure this adventure more than you ever expected. What a blessing...

 
Hey gang it's not over yet. We are still 2 days away from home and some of the most beautiful roads and landscape are ahead. Wait and see. We are leaving Kenora and will ride to about ThunderBay today maybe a little farther.

Later.

If you don't hear from us it's because we will be wilderness camping and I don't think we will have Internet.

This is where I should put in a plug in for newenough.....good service and shipping to Canada! And it was a jacket that is tough to find in Canada (Cortech)
