Medicine Bow National Forest in southern Wyoming is beautiful this time of year. Go the Snowy Range portion of the park, use the entrance just outside of Centennial WY. If you go, be sure to get the bacon burger at the Old Corral in Centennial. Best damn burger I've had in years.
You've got another month before it starts to get snowed out. Its every bit as spectacular as Rocky Mountain National Park, but there are no huge crowds because the tourist infrastructure isn't there like it is in the Denver-Ft. Collins corridor; although, you will see a fair number of hunters right now.
I have 70,000 miles on my Road King. It is great. That said, you can put the same miles on most Japanese big cruisers for about 2/3 the purchase price (used to be 1/2 till the Japanese bike makers started making them look like Harley's, now most people can't tell the difference and they can charge more). I also put 170,000 miles on a Fatboy but I was younger and believe me, that makes a difference.
Where is that fish fossil stand? That looks fun to browse...
ReplyDeleteLove those wide open vistas.
ReplyDeleteWhat is your opinion on the Kawasaki Vulcan S? I don't like sport bikes, but boy do cruisers look great.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Harley's Road King as well.
Stay safe Captain.
Enjoy your ride Captain!
