The Best-Laid Plans…

My intention was to provide a quick daily summary and a highlight image each day. FAIL!

I am SO sorry about my failure to provide ride updates here. We are well into our 2014 Northwest Adventure, and are having the time of our lives. But the pace is grueling. We ride more miles in a day on this trip than we have ever attempted. When we arrive at our hotel each evening, we unload, clean up, eat.. Next, I have to get back to the room, confirm our route for the next day, and email the route to the other riders. At that point, I'm done. And I know I must sleep. Hence the failure to update.

We have seen so much of what this great country offers! Everyone who calls America home should see as much of this country as possible. From the mountains to the prairies to the oceans white with foam… we've been privileged to see all of these already on this adventure of a lifetime.

Each year, the trip has a focal destination. In 2012, it was The Grand Canyon. In 2013, Niagara Falls was "the prize". This year, it's Yellowstone. Our sights our set on that destination now. We leave Pocatello, Idaho this morning and make our way to Jackson Hole for lunch. Then we head north into the Grand Tetons. If time allows, we'll venture into Yellowstone late this afternoon. If not - tomorrow is the day!

Yesterday, we rode motorcycle roller coasters in Hell's Canyon and The Devil's Tail, carving canyons along the Snake River. You'll see video soon!

Here are a few pictures of things we've experienced so far. More pics and video to come!
