Made it home safely today, enjoyed the ride of a lifetime. The people I met made the ride relaxing and informative, from Germany, France, Italy, Mexico, Lafayette, La., and Bandera, Tx., just to name a few. Met a gentleman in Monument Valley from France, who now lives in Lafayette, his son attended Texas A&M ag center just a few miles from me. He was leading a group of French men and ladies around the West. He drove the van with all the luggage, they rode Harleys. The lady from Bandera was traveling with her grandson and great grand children, told me not to go to Glacier National Park, it was getting cold. Her grandson lives in Missoula, I cut that part of the trip. Here's a few pics.

Canyon De Chelly, Chinle, Az.

Rafting on the Snake river, got to go back there.

Visited this Mormon Tabernacle in Paris, Idaho.

Long road home from North Dakota.


There's lots more, but hate to bore you.



If you are riding  and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast.

(Not boring at all...)

The highlight of the whole trip was a stay with MP and Ms CP in North Dakota, hospitality beyond belief. If you've never eaten North Dakota farm raised and farm fed beef, you'd better make that trip.

If you are riding  and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast.

Glad you are home safe and had an awesome trip.

How many miles and how long on the road?

Glad you made it home safe.
