Earache

Today was day one on my ride through Canada and to New Hampshire. Had to ride the flats of Eastern Colorado and Nebraska today, so not a lot of fun. YUp and riding at 0330 in order to beat the heat in Nebraska...

Wish I had a pic of Pete - but alas. One from last week....

Looks loverly!

That looks fantastic - I'd love to do some of the TET.

I dunno - it's not even my dog! He belongs to the neighbor at my shop and wanders in when the door is open to make himself at home. Fucker acts like he owns the place.

Oil change day today. My assistant thinks he can do a better job than I can. He's probably not wrong...

Installing some new tires today in preparation for next week's trip. I should own stock in Dunlop...

Same here - smoky as fuck from Canadian wildfires. Normally, you can see great detail in the mountain by my house. Not today......

Marcel sent me a pic of the rocks outside of his house.....

$33,500+ though - yikes! Bikes are getting sooo expensive.

Yes - the Sun hitting the redness of the sandstone. Almost makes it glow.

Damn - that ain't good! Have much smoke from Canada? Really smoky here. 48F this morning though.

Oh I see the similarities now - we have stupid cunts climbing all over our rocks as well.

I've never been - have any pics? Quick google search didn't show a lot

I'll still take the heat over cold riding, but you're absolutely right.

That hasn't stopped Marcel.

But I made it to the highway and then railed for home. Nice weekend jaunt completed...

Had to endure 50 miles of this crap in order to get to the interstate...

Views miles outside of the Park are better. So much fun ripping along here at 80 mph as the sun cuts through the canyons...

But I did catch the Sun coming up across the desert floor...

Shooting landscape pics in the dark isn't the smartest idea ...

Up at 0400 again on Sunday and leaving the hotel. Did a speed lap of Arches Park in the dark ...

Didn't really want Mexican again, but this place was close to the hotel and was open. Beef burrito this time and a few more Negras. They had a cheese dip that left a lot to be desired and the burrito was kinda lame as well. But the beers were super frosty and I was more interested in them after a hot day on the bike....

Back into Moab for the night and I wandered the streets looking for some place to eat. This place was selected due to the mural on the front.

Thousands of square miles of nothing in southern Utah....
