No Thru Traffic

We awoke from our slumber at another awesome KOA in Fillmore really early to try and make it to Zion in time to get a first-come, first-served camping spot. But as is typical of my packing, it took me an hour to put the mountain of crap back onto my bike. After another terrible freeway [...]

If I had to name three things I learned from popular music they would be, that you can’t always get what you want,  that all we are is dust in the wind and that Heaven is a halfpipe. If I had to name three things I learned from this trip so far, they would be, [...]

Ryan being deep

Yesterday was the first day of our tour and it went really well. We put on over 350 miles and took it pretty easy as we snaked through the gorge and some back roads to Wallowa Lake State Park. We definitely enjoyed the smaller roads way more than I-84 and will be avoiding [...]
