Day 6


Here are pictures from today's ride from Cody over Beartooth Pass and then wide open prairies in The Big Sky state on our way to Great Falls. Nice weather and traffic on the pass wasn’t bad as long as you were cruising and enjoying the scenery which Frank and I did. Steve and Jerry were a little more spirited.

Day 5

 Sort of a down day, as far as riding. Three of us spent the day in the Buffalo Bill museum. Jerry did laundry and washed his motorcycle. The museum was great and well worth the time it takes to see it all.

Day 4

 Kick stands up at 7:30. Had a nice breakfast and conversation with a life long Wyoming waitress. Then we “head out on the highway looking for adventure, in anything that comes our way”. Rode East on highway 16 to Buffalo then North past Sheridan where we caught highway 14 back West to Cody. A very nice ride with a light shower in the morning then dry skies the rest of the day. We arrived at the A Wyoming Inn at 3:30. A low budget motel but good enough for motorcycle guys. There was a noticeable lack of other folks staying here. 😟

Now comes the question “where are we going to go for supper”

Pictures: not a lot of scenery shots but maybe something that will entice you to come out here yourselves.

The one with the 3 boys was in Sheridan for a gas stop and ice cream.

Day 3

 Another great day. We had breakfast in Dubois. The cafe we wanted to eat at is closed on Wednesdays so drat. It’s a small town so not much to chose from so we had a burrito at a coffee shop. You can see the guys on their phones like a bunch of teenage girls.

Then we drove to a look out point to see The Tetons. That was after enduring a couple road construction stops. We made an easy decision not to continue on to Jackson and mingle with 100s of tourists. We rode back to Dubois and went to the new National Museum of Military Vehicles. It was awesome and I don’t use that word very often. I posted just a few pictures which is “ maybe 1/20 of what they had on display. We had a young tour guide who majored in modern history and was extremely knowledgeable on the Korean War and the Viet Nam conflict. My feet hurt when we were done.

Back to the motel in Riverton and ready for supper.

Day 2

A lot cooler today, in the 70s and mid 80s, until the last hour then in the 90s. We did have a couple light rain showers but they felt good to ride through with our mesh gear. 

Some nice roads with long sweepers and up and down elevations. Traffic was sparce with lots of passing zones. It was a fairly long day. We satarted after breakfast at a local cafe in Richfield, UT at 8:00 and stopped at our motel in Riverton, WY at 4:30. Steve arrived a few minutes later.

First day

Can you say HOT? 105F a couple times, 198-100 most of the time. the 3 of us are from Arizon so no big deal. I haven't heard from Steve but I can imagine he had a warm ride too. We arrived at our motel at 3:40 local time so not too long of a day.

Guy Trip 2023

Another trip with brother Steve and friends Jerry and Frank along with visits from John Parry and Tom Ness is in the works. We leave on July 17th for 15 days and 4,700 miles making a big loop around the Northwest quandrant of America. I'll try and post pictures and write up as we go along.
