Sorry for the delay. Got home last Sunday, and have been playing catchup with work and life ever since.
Here are a few pics from my two-wheeled Colorado Adventure:

The whole trip started with a vivid dream I had back in late May about Highway 50 between Gunnison and Monarch Pass.
I know it's not Colorado's most spectacular road by a longshot, but it's always been a special one for me.



Jul 24, My trusty old Kawasaki (Gold Wing )needed a little TLC before the trip, and my garage dog was on hand to help.


Jul 26: Loading up the Goldwing prior to embarking. It was 104 at midnight in Las Vegas that night. Well, got to go through hell before we get to heaven.


Sat, Jul 27: Kiva Koffee in Utah, in the Escalante Petrified Forest National Park. Didn't take many pics through Zion & Bryce. It was hot as hell, and I just wanted to get across the desert to Colorado's cool greenery. There was some old car rally, and the traffic on the highway through Bryce & Zion was stopped for nearly an hour while a helicopter landed. Sadly a woman died when the 100-year-old car lost a front wheel and careened off the road and flipped.


Passing through the land of Wile E. Coyote & the Roadrunner
