We got started a little later than planned as we were almost to the park and realized that we took our helmets out of the truck on the day we went to Idaho Falls, so we went back to the fifth wheel and picked those up before finally getting to our starting point at 11 AM. The mountains were clearly visible as the haze from the wildfires has disappeared - at least for now:
The bikes were removed from the back of the truck and we got everything ready to go:
The ride is a fairly level one as we traveled from the Gros Ventre Junction:
along the main highway past the airport:
and finally to the tunnel that takes us under the highway at Moose Junction:
We arrived at Dornan's and took a break to walk around the stores, relax:
and then order some lunch in this beautiful area:
Josie took a couple shots while waiting for our sandwich, and caught these shots of me sipping a beer:
and of the beautiful hanging baskets at Dornan's:
Our ride back to Gros Ventre Junction was smooth this time as we didn't have the head winds that we had on our last trip. We rode a total of about 13 miles round trip and enjoyed the exercise on this day that was beautiful in the morning, but became cloudy in the afternoon:
We eventually got some rain shortly after we arrived home, and we were sure happy that we timed it right this time.
Even though the forecast is for clear skies today, we half expect another storm later in the day. It seems to be the pattern lately.
We were happy to hear yesterday that Austin will be traveling with the team on all away games as a true freshman. I will watch the game against Michigan State and also record it on the Big Ten Network as the game will be televised nationally at 6 PM today. Watch for number 47 who will be a back-up fullback, and play on special teams. Good luck Austin!!
