Stage 6
We meet up with "TwoTailDog" and "Dusty Tucker"--then on over Marshall Pass
|
Kevin Naser (TwoTailDog) on his mighty
green tiger. Kevin had pondered riding with me on this ride---but things
came up and he and his riding buddy rode from the North. I knew I'd run
into them at some point and was so glad to meet them. His triumph was
extremely well set up. Kevin put a lot of time and work into his ride
and I understand he made it all the way to the border--the last part alone.

This guy riding tail to the TwoTailDog I know as "Dusty Tucker". Kevin said he was riding behind him always tucked down trying not to eat too much dust. His DRZ400S was let up so nice----made me think I might ride mine if I did it again and was able to haul it to and from the start and finish. I can't wait to read a report of their adventure !!! |

We are riding up the old railroad bed towards Marshall Pass in this picture. I think some riders last year had to by-pass this as there was a bridge out somewhere. |

|
From time to time on this ride, Monty would pull up--shut his bike off--and ask--"Do you notice anything different about my bike" ?? We got use to this--as something had been broken (not fallen) off of Monty's mighty BMW--they just don't make them like they use to--huh Monty ?? His front fender had actually fell off this time---it broke off later on.

We ended up in Kremmling, Colorado for the day.
 |
No Comment !! Oh I can't help myself--the bungy cords are the only things holding the bag on. |
|
No Comment-either !!

And speaking of our sponser---"Anti-Monkey
Butt Powder" from "Grassroots BMW"
It was doing a beautiful job of keeping my rear end pretty and pink--a monumental
task in itself.
I also found if did an admirable job of keeping skid marks out of the white
padding in my riding shorts--nothing short of a miracle----really good stuff
!!
Benefits for psoriasis, nasty nose hairs and in-grown toe-nails are still in
the testing stages.
We also went over Boreas Pass today and went thru the town of Breckenridge---I had been thru here before and had forgotton the horror of the traffic thru here. Wish we could have went around this way too busy town.
Stage 7 Thru
Steamboat Springs and over the border into Wyoming
