    Beartooth Pass as mentioned is one of the best rides around. It all depends on how much time a person has.
    If you have more time go a little more West into Idaho, beautiful riding.
    Go back south into Colorado, there are so many great roads and routes, would need to know how much time you have. We have followed our son all over Colorado, you can spend a lot of time there.
    From Colorado going down into Utah and the National Parks are really nice.
    We even went all the way out to northern California a couple years ago and rode through the Red Woods and south along the coast and over to Yosemite.
    It is absolutely endless.
    We will be out there again in July this year for 3 weeks. Trying to figure out what we are doing this year and which bikes to take.
    You can contact us anytime for questions.
    Yup, excellent riding out that way. If the crazy Canucks open up the border, thinking about doing Alaska (artic ocean) from Los Angeles. Be my 50th state on a bike. (rented one in Hawaii years ago for a few days. Rode that 2 lane hwy around the entire island.)

    Minnesota, not Maine. :-) I am a couple years away from riding up to the northeast. That ride takes me past my parents, so I often do not get north of Maryland.

In Jackson, Bunnery Bakery for breakfast - and coffee at Jackson Hole Roasters (they also have xclnt breakfast as well).
    I have decided to make Red Lodge a three day stop to just enjoy the area.
