Friday morning events, 6/25

Since last posted, we've traveled US50 from Colorado Springs to Montrose, CO then finished the day (Thursday) at Ridgeway State Park campground on US550. First time camping on this trip. Got to the site late so we had to hustle to get set up before nightfall but made it. Good experience.

Today, started with breakfast in Ridgeway @ Kate's Place. Great local restaurant. Then started our ride south thru Red Mountain, Coal Bank Pass and Windom Peak with elevation @ 14K. Not a ride for the inexperienced motorcycle rider at all. In some places it rivals the Tail of the Dragon at the south end of the Smokey Mountains. Currently taking a break in Durango, CO before we head southwest to reach the Four Corners. Then to Monument Valley at the Utah/Arizona boarder before day's end.
It's a miserable life but someone has to live it!
