Beartooth

We left Dubois this morning and had a great ride. We went down through Thermopolis and the wind river and up the Chief Joseph Hwy to Beartooth Hwy.

We had a stop along the way about 30 miles north of Thermopolis for an accident. It did not appear to be too good as there was a priest giving last rite's. The whole road was blocked for over an hour. They had 4 ambulances and brought in a helicopter. It looked like a Toyota tried to drive through a motorhome (from the front) and only made it to the dining table. I hope everyone makes it through ok

Lori (S.) went straight through to Red Lodge and Mark, Lori and I took the bikes over Beartooth. What a great ride. Lori hooked up with a group of riders that wanted to sightsee and Dirtball and I did a speed run. 50 miles from the Chief Joseph to red lodge in 47 minutes. It was great. I think Dirtball ground off at least an inch of his running boards. (And people say darkside tires can't corner... Hah!)

We all regrouped in Red Lodge and caravan'd up to Billings for the night. We just finished dinner at a local Cracker Barrel (yummm.) and are now relaxing.

Tomorrow we head to the East side of Glacier before going over the Going to the sun Hwy.
