Motorrad:
And Being that I have been camping etc... I didnt even have the stash up in its normal handlebar...
Hmmm profile is supposed to say im 13... need to roll it back a year...
Was a pleasure and an honor to hook up with ID... and also a fluke.. Must have been ment to be.. as We slept in, late... and he happend to read the post that I was in pocotello.. he was on "big butte" and watched us ride through the desert, then caught up with us as we ate a sandwich in the ARCO park....
Lets see... last few days...
lots of Morrell Mushroom hunters.. kind of strange..
today we got rained and hailed on. first weather of the trip. the Mcgruder coridore was snowed in.. we worked our way around most of it... as well as downed tree's... hopping over them, going under them... riding down 10" embankments and back up to go around them... through snow banks (leaving foot peg drag marks as you go through from the tires cutting down in) made it all the way to the peak of the cooridore... to hit one down tree we couldnt get around... not without a chainsaw... so had to come back... No pictures of any of this of course.. as it was raining the entire time... re-routed to fuel (was 200 miles in at that point since last fuel in shoup ID) and pops only has a 250 range unlike my 350 tanker truck bike)...
Currently sitting in Hamilton MT.. going to head to Lowell ID tomarrow.. and do a big ZIG ZAG just so we can do the LOLO motorway... worth it since we are this far...
Watching Colorado close... rumor of them going to stage 3 fire restrictions... (no travel except on highways).... if thats the case... .Im going around it....

Motorrad:
PS... USMC issued shovels work great as ax's... better than I ever would have imagined...
Motorrad:
PS... Keystone light isnt beer... this is beer
ID KX500:
d**n Motorrad, it really became an adventure. I wondered about the Magruder, I always like a full tank for any reason heading across there, kinda the outback of Idaho. My first time from the Elk City side to Darby was in the rain. You hit Shoup right, they are closed sometimes. Well enjoy the beers, I did upgrade to Corona tonight.
