Thanks all for the kind words. I really enjoy this ride, I hope the report conveys that. Griff, I followed your scoring progress on the BMR leader board. All I can say is there isn't any "give up" in your makeup. Nice riding! I'm sure MoBob would have liked to take a few days off before it...

May 3, 2017 Day 3 On the road south by 03:00 and I get a little surprise. US 90 is under construction almost all the way from Van Horn to Marfa. About 75 miles worth. We are riding on one lane of the original road and the other lane that I’m in going south is actually the shoulder of the...

Ride Around Texas - 3100 + miles, under 70 hours. April, 30, 2017 10:00 The bike is loaded except for my 1 gallon water jug, which is iced down and spent the night in the fridge. Now it’s installed and that leaves a last minute tire pressure check, on the new skins, before we roll towards...

Earth to Moon was my brain child. I'm glad it made the "list". Be aware the map is wrong on the IBA site. It doesn't make the 1500 mile minimum. I originally routed through Springfield, IL. from St. Louis, then due east for a total of 1516 miles. The anniversary date for Apollo 11 is...

Mothers R3. Spray on wipe off. Rich

Wow these guys are not letting up with only a couple of weeks to go! Griff is hanging in there, hoping for a top 10 finish, but like I told him the competition is relentless! I'm still thinking about making another pass to pick up a few more sites, but I don't hold a candle to Griff's...

Hey don't thank me I just tagged along. Enjoyed the ride, especially after you turned down those flame throwers. I think they actually faded the back of my jacket a little. I've got plenty of good memories from the ride, but I'll let your ride report tell the story. I do have one question...

I'm heading out at 2 pm, for Midlothian to meet up with Craig. If we are lucky I think we will be good to go until tomorrow morning, well that and this afternoon for me. Ok truth is, we are going to ride in some rain, no question about it. Should be a fun ride. Craig's first BBG, and my...

Well Tony, the certs say I've been there, but that's the beauty of old age, and senility. Every ride is new to me. Rich

If you want some company, I'll tag along. I've done that triangle a few times. Rich

I've got a few pictures from that ride. Nice meeting and riding with you guys. I finished up over a month on the road, and just got my paperwork done and mailed off today,,,,for 6 more rides. Everybody busy at the top. A few sunrise shots on the way down. No rain in Nevada, but the...

Sorry I don't have any experience with the hotels in the area. I'm going to ride out from Denver that morning.

Hi Tony, I was just up on Mt. Evans last Wednesday. I did the ride from Pikes Peak last year and have been thinking about doing it from Mt. Evans this year. Mind if I join you? What time are you planning on gas in Idaho Springs Tuesday morning? I met you at Hoagy's SS2k ride in Texas a...
