An Even Cooler Day to Ride!

Today, was an even better day for riding! We left Grand Junction, CO, continuing our journey on Rte 50. The weather was great, low 60's. As we journeyed east, the weather never warmed up! In fact, it got cooler, as we journeyed through the mountains! The riding was great, and the scenery, spectacular! Below, are several examples of the terrific riding!

The lake, just outside of Gunnison, CO.


The ride, up Monarch Pass.

This view, is atop Monarch Pass, 11,400 feet!

As we rode through Salida, we decided to eat lunch. We  found Wallbanger's Sports Bar & Grille. Great food! Anyone traveling through Salida, should stop in and refresh! Definitely worth a stop!

More great scenery!







Our ride, today, was great! As we traveled from Raton, to Clayton, NM, we saw several large herds of antelope! One herd, was close to 100 antelope! We saw several large bulls! Tomorrow, brings another day of riding. Planning to ride to Dallas.
