Wyoming



Well 2009 and on the road again. This year we are short 2 riders, but to remain famous (just kidding) we will keep the same name.
Rose and Aldo did not come this year not sure why, but truth be told they could not get their visa's stamped, to leave Welland.
June 20 2009, 10:00am Ted and I leave Niagara falls for Wyoming.
Ted had this idea that the storm was heading east, we were heading west and if we just leave we will get through it twice as fast, damm if he was not right.
For three reasons we are heading to Dodge City Kanas first
1st we are driving 2200 kil. so that we can have a beer (or two) in the famous Long Branch Saloon,
2nd I want to be able to say "Get the hell out of Dodge" and mean it,
3rd because the open road called us.
We just happen to leave in the middle of a tropical storm. For two hours we drove in rain that was so heavy we were going to trade the bikes in for jet skis. I have to say at this point don't hesitate to buy Frogg Toggs, they are great and we did not get the least bit wet.
When we reached the Ohio border the rain stopped the sun came out the the temp jumped to 30
850 kil, later we stopped in Greenfield Indiana for the night. The Wing the Harley and the two Bushtec's ran just perfect.
End day one.
