Day 4 2014

Day 4 Looking at the length of ride home Sunday and the fact that the weather called for more thunders storms, we decided to break camp early. We would do more dirt and interesting small side roads to fill both days. Our ride took us from Nakusp via the little cable ferry to Spences Bridge. […]

Day 3 2014

Day 3. (Third person perspective) A night of ants playing hopscotch over Marty’s body and his mind adding more numbers to what was actually there made for a tough night. Morning came early and hard. Camping his first night in years drove back why He stopped camping that many years ago. Rain, wind and ants. […]

Day 2 2014 Later that day

Day two ended with a brilliant ride up into the alpine behind Nakusp. Was all great until the first thunder and lighting flashed across the sky. Turned and headed back down. The rain began in torrents. Sexy rain, like in the movies. Raindrops the size of golfballs. I’m not a camper at the best if […]

Yellowstone. A day that saw everything….

Well…..Yellowstone National Park. Home of yogi bear and the picnic basket bandit. Weather again started out absolutely “gorgeous” with a few puffy clouds to add contrast to the deep blue sky (I don’t like contrast anymore). Missed most of breakfast cause I wrote yesterdays blog and got to sleep far too late. Oh well, life […]

Blog went down….

Blog went down. Lost all my writing and pictures so I’m upset. Oh well…. Life goes on. We rode on some great trails into high passes (6450ft). Almost got lost. End on a trail that had this red clay … Which looked awesome until it got really wet. 10 miles in 1 hour seems like […]
