Getting ready

In the beginning, "She" needs a facelift.  Here is the before;

Being stripped;

Bits and pieces being added back;

Re-assembly begins;

Not so bare any more;

We have wheels, new tires;

Bags are back, painted;

Bags are mounted, stronger brackets this time;

Ready to test ride;

Test ride to Petite Jean mountain, all systems go;

Packing the pantry;

Took time off for St. Paddy's;

First stop, Pikes Peak CO.

On the way up..

Got up to 13,000ft, last 1,000ft of road was closed, still too much snow.

Had lunch at 10,000ft..

Which I got to share with an amazing bird. He flew down, sat on the branch next to me, I could touch him. Gave him some hummus on the branch.  Sure likes hummus!

Back down from Pike's Peak, stop at Manitou Springs for a beer;

Riding through Zion

Gate at Zion, clouds are gathering. Forecast says 5-12" of snow tomorrow, no ways!

And then, this morning, at Bryce Canyon, a surprise;

Snow in Bryce Canyon is an amazing site;

 And now, in storage at Las Vegas airport, waiting for the next trip, starting May 24th, the rest of Utah including Bonneville salt flats. 140mph should do it..
