North Bend lined us out on the Logan Pass ride in Glacier National Park that me and my friend Tim took the day after Cino:

Fantastic experience. The riders rose to the level of the landscape.
I rode with folks from a wide range of experience and backgrounds and they all brought something to Cino that made it a full experience.
A couple with strong natural science backgrounds were calling out plants and geology along the way, locals were giving heads ups about landmarks and sharing stories about the surrounding towns and side trips, and as always people were ready to talk bikes and help fix them if necessary.
And most riders new when to be quiet and just be in Montana on a beautiful road on a beautiful day sharing all of this.
The view from lunch first day:

I had a lot of fun meeting and riding with you guys! Unfortunately Cino Heroica somehow killed my computer's logic board and I am without a laptop. I'll try to get my pics scanned on a borrowed computer sooner rather than later.
Let's do the same kind of ride but in California next.

Great photos, djkashuba! They really display the cornucopia that is Cino - brought back good memories 
Thanks for everyone's input; looks like another fun time was had by all!

I should say yours are, too - just realized I can see them today! More beautiful photos - thanks!
Can anyone give names left to right on that BF C&V shot from Northbend? I recognize a couple, but not all. Thanks in advance

I'm interested in doing this next year. How does one sign up? It's a lottery, right?

Awesome photos and reports! I'd love to do this sometime, but at my age, things are starting to compress in terms of infinite possibilities.
Did any of you travel through the town of Polson on your way to Kalispell? That's where I was born and raised - still have a cabin on Flathead Lake.
Maybe next year?

Here's some quickly (badly) scanned shots from a disposable camera:
@northbend at the start
Bob Freeman (posing) before the sketchy descent on the first day
Lunch waterfall
Riders going down to the valley
Thumbs up
Gravel rollers are fun
The best part of the ride for me was all the double track through the forest
No flats!
