Moab is awesome thumb

Can't wait to get back there again next spring. With bigger tanks on the WRs! Very happy

Glad you made it out of your stuck-ness without injury!!!

I just realized I rode for as much as the Earth's Diameter at Equator. And a little over a 1/3 rougly of the Earth's Circumference when i'll be home :O

No wifi tonight so just a quick note to say I'm in topeko and one of my side bag caught on fire today, and my camelback double up'd as a fire extinguisher. There is now a hole in it I'm attempting to repair with tie wraps and ducktape. Only one of my shoes burned on the side inside so it's not too bad...

Hi Medski:

Sorry for not keeping up but I had my own little ride to finish. Great to see you made it home and I hope you enjoyed it to its fullest.

There is something about hitting the road on bike with the power and utility to do anything and go anywhere while at the same time costing just pennies by comparison to the big adventure bikes... And they simply wear you out more than anything else.
