Summer Vacation 2016

Grant (Blueverclear) met me at Dot's Diner in Kenner (HMMOG-stop there if you're in the area). We met up with another riding buddy of his-a super cool HD guy named Gus. (Yes, there are super cool HD guys)

We rode miles of backroads in the bayou at extremely high speeds. Canals on both sides of the road. What a blast. They dropped me off just east of the Atchafalaya Basin.

I had a big time riding with these guys in South Louisiana. In this pic, we are waiting on a swinging bridge. Got around the pickup in a hurry.

Couple of observations:
I thought canals on both sides of the road was kind of scary until Grant explained to me why it wasn't. "Yeah, you get wet. But it's a lot softer than pavement or ground." Lol

I thought Louisiana had a lot of gravel on the roads. They don't. Colorado and Pennsylvania have a lot of gravel on the road.

Everyone in the rest of the country must come dump their trash on the side of the road in LA. What the hell, people?


Grant told his buddy, Gus, to take the lead and kick it. Gus said, "Kick it? What about her?" Grant said, "Don't you worry about her, buddy, she'll keep up." Lol too much fun

Out of order but this is what I looked like when I left. Everything in the bags, including leather jacket, chaps, heated gear, and modular helmet.

I ended up shipping the leather/heated gear to Monument, CO once I got to Mobile and then shipped it home when I left Colorado.

But that's it. A backpack and a small pocketbook.

I wore the modular helmet once. That was about six miles up the base of Pike's Peak when it was pouring rain and pea-sized hail. Dear lord.

I was rained on a grand total of about fifteen minutes the whole trip.

And then it's welcome to Texas, where people know how to drive.

This is in Huntsville TX. I met my friend from The Woodlands here for lunch. Great riding in the Sam Houston State Forest. It's beautiful in Texas. What a great state. I loved every mile.

The place is Zams Swamp tours off of LA 307 (Kraemer Bayou Rd). Really cool place on a great road out in the middle of nowhere.

I spent a week riding in Colorado. If you've never ridden out there, I highly recommend. I have never seen anything like it. Mile after mile of stunning vistas with very little traffic.
