We left out of Idaho Falls and hit some great roads for motorcycles, smooth sailing and pleasant weather.

We did a quick stop at Jackson to get Dirtball a new phone. This is getting to be a habit with him. Last year he lost his phone on the way to New York and this year he drowned it with water.

A little farther down the road we turned into the mountains and ran alongside the Grand Tetons for a while.
The roads were good for 35 miles or so, and then we came around a corner and saw a sign for road construction. Not a big deal... Then another sign saying motorcycles use extreme caution. Again, not a big deal. then another sign saying pavement ends... Problem... Lori does not like gravel.

Next up another sign saying prepare to stop. A flagman stopped us and told us to go to the front of the line. We had to go right behind the flag car. The problem is the driver of the flag car must have never ridden a motorcycle. He crawled us for 3 1/2 miles at speeds from 5 to 12 miles an hour. It would have been a lot easier if he had gone a bit faster. Driving a motorcycle on loose muddy gravel is not fun on crawling speeds.

We finally got out of there and it was smooth riding all the way to the motel.

Iceman beat us to the hotel and got a free hat for being the first. He also got to get the first beer :)
Everybody is here that I can tell, and most are out having dinner right now.

The fun begins!
