2009 Bike Trip

2009 Bike Trip

I took the back roads from home and through Texas,sorry no pics there.

Just getting into New Mexico,a beautiful day for a ride! You can click any pic
for a larger version,then use the back button.

9am and 71 in august was comfy!

Looking NW near Clayton,NM

Coming into Raton,NM

63% at 2:15PM,in August,I was really enjoying the cooler climate after
a pretty darn hot summer in La.

The weather was threatening,but I was able to outrun it and stayed dry.

Colorado view from behind my room,this place had a drive in movie screen and you could watch it from your room
Naturally,the smoking rooms were far away from all that.

See how far my smoking room was from the main motel? The movie screen was beyond that.
BTW,thats how far the vending and ice machines were!

This is where I was,and next was the RV parking.....this place has it all!Look for it in Monte Vista,Co

NOT a sign I wanted to see on a heavy bike that I can't pick back up if I fall over!

That's the Durango and Silverton Narrow gauge Railroad leaving Durango.

One of the many streams I saw along the way.

The ski lift above Monarch Pass.

A lake near Aspen.
