I am in Shawnee, OK. I learned a lot about long distance riding and the faults of my gear. This is going to be a long hard trip. I am over 10% done as far as mileage though.

Have you heard about the weather out west? We had hardly any snow this winter in Denver, but the mountains got hit hard all over the western US. 50 feet of snow at one ski area. They usually have Mount Evans road and Trail Ridge road open for Memorial Day. Not this year. Although Independence Pass is open. We had one of the coldest and wettest May's ever, so none of the snow melted. I don't know the current status of Pike's Peak road, but you can try 1-800-318-9505.

What's wrong with the gear?
I know that gear is where it's at when you hit non-sunshine weather. |

You're in some beautiful country right now, riding through Gunnison area. I hope to move back out that way at some point, either to Colorado or Utah. Hope the ride is going well!!

Staying at the Grand Canyon Lodge on the North Rim. Watched the sunset off by myself on a little rock ledge. One of the most amazing sites I will ever witness. Definitely was right for having it in the top ten of my bucket list. Check out my blog for pics. I have a ton more pics I will post when I get home.
