242 miles...Cody, Wyoming to Red Lodge, Montana, the Beartooth Hwy.

Absolutely the best ride I've ever taken.

Only about 55 miles as the rain moved in and rained hard all day. However, I enjoyed every one of those 55 miles!

Pretty spectacular scenery. I always feel like I'm on top of the world riding Beartooth Pass.

Default HOG Chapter Ride

Heat - Hot - Heat
Rain - Thunder - Rain

That is all we have been dealing with for weeks now.


Our HOG chapter met at Smokin HD at 7am this morning. We rode west to Advance and had a breakfast meeting at 801 Southern. There were 10 bikes, one trike and four vehicles. I rode Belinda solo and the Caroline Girl drove. She had errands to run following and did not want to get wet.

All together we had 23 people at breakfast. Good turn out and nice fellowship.

There was a lot of moisture in the air and a large storm on the radar about 30 miles north of us.

The group was going to do the best to dodge Rain and get a 100+ mile ride in. I rode with them a while and leaned right as we went by the road I live on. I forgot a jacket and it was beginning to rain lightly. They knew I would be cutting off.

32.9 miles and a great breakfast with friends.

That sound nice, breakfast and a good ride with good friends.
I was recently on vacation and hit Asheville NC HD on its "party" day, Fantastic free hotdogs, nice dealership too and very nice people! The couple sitting at my table were part of the local HOG and we talked about the rides and such and he welcomed me to join them but I live at the coast!
All my years of owning many Harleys I have never been active in HOG but now that "all my rowdy friends have settled down" and ALL sold their Harleys, I need to get involved with HOG, I have settled down too but I still ride...

I cleaned Belinda up and the weather turned off nice. I told the Carolina Girl I was going for another ride. We are getting a new round about "tornado maker" at Hwy 158 and Farmington Rd. I wanted to check out the progress. They have 158 blocked which is major. I stopped by Victory Arms and checked out some firearms. Man inventory is big now. All I could do to not bring home a Ruger/Marlin lever action today.

I rode through the country back toward our house and stopped for a bike photo in front of Clint Bowyer's ranch.







Round #2 was 25.9 miles.

383km ( 240 miles) The wife and I took the soft tails today and headed north, all two lane roads and very few towns to ride thru, so very little stopping and going.
The day was a beauty, sunny and nice temps.
