        Trevor and Glenn have asked me to post a few pictures for them as apparently it "cuts into their drinking time"


        There hotel. Personally I'd rather see a pic of The Prodigal Son Pub

        Stevens Pass

          Awesome, thanks Garth, I will keep them coming and they should get more interesting. By the way the gps must be broken as there is no way we had a top speed of 108 mph!

                It will be a great trip. Spent a lot of time in Moab and surrounding area over the years. You have to hit Eddie McStiff's Brew Pub just for the gong show. Beer and food is probably a bit better at the Moab Brewery though.

                  Well, so far so good! We achieved our goal of getting to Sandy, Utah today. Tomorrow morning we get some servicing done to the bikes and we'll be good to go. Tentatively thinking about going to Panguitch or Tropic tomorrow where we'll check out Bryce Canyon. Then maybe taking Hwy12 to Moab to see Arches NP, then down to Mexican Hat for Monument Valley and across to Zion NP. After that Nevada and Northern California, I know Hwy36 and Hwy3 are awesome, plus we happen to know someone who lives in the area. (Hi Charlie)

                  Oh, here's the record from the GPS for today, I don't know what's wrong with those satellites, we couldn't have been doing those speeds! Good averages too!

                    Flanigans Inn in Panguitch isn't a brew pub but has micro brew beer. Grumpy Troll in Tropic looks interesting. Where's the beer reviews? You two on the wagon ?

                          Good to see the snow is melting.

                          New bike and the brakes are shot already? WTF?

                            Hey Tom, the new brake pads went on my 2011 Concours with 14,000 miles. Trevor got the new tires, he wore out the originals due to hooliganism!

                            We got a late start today as we got the work done first thing this morning, a shorter day but certainly the most interesting!



                            Our digs in Moab for tonight. Tomorrow we'll head for Arches NP, then head south to see Newspaper Rock, and hopefully Monument Valley.

                              Hey Garth, we're in Utah. I ordered a Moab Brewery IPA, it's only 4%! Gnats pee!

                              At the summit of Wolf Creek Pass, Trevor took a panorama shot with his new Asian phone. It was strange being amongst all of that snow, yet the temperature was relatively mild and the road was dry and clear. Perfect for Trevor to scuff in his new tires!

                                Ah well, all is good then. Hooliganism lives.
