You may notice that this year's adventures are focused on the west coast
ocean states. We have designed the Lewis & Clark tour so that you may enjoy
each day's riding and then return to the comfort of the same hotel room each
day. For those guests that would like to fly in and rent a bike, this is the
ideal adventure package.

News from the Yellowstone
Tour: |
| "Paradise on wheels" is how the guests describe their time together on this trip.
While many motorcycle enthusiasts were heading to Sturgis, this tour spent time
enjoying the route traveled by Lewis and Clark on the way to Salmon, Idaho, and the white
water thrills of the “River of no Return.” |
 |
After enjoying the white water of the
Salmon River and the great hospitality of the Grey House Inn, the tour
continued on to Virginia
City, Montana, where they learned about the history of the gold mining days in
the west. After dinner the guests enjoyed an evening of laughter and fun at the Brewery Follies
before retiring for the night.
|
With
a good nights rest and breakfast completed, we traveled on to Yellowstone, with
stops along the way to take in the breathtaking views of the western side of the
Rocky Mountains. As we passed Quake Lake they learned about the August 17, 1959,
earthquake that took the lives of 29 campers and just how quickly the landscape
can be rearranged by the forces of nature.
|
| After settling into our hotel
rooms at the Yellowstone Lake Lodge, we enjoyed an evening of fine food in the
restaurant followed by drinks and music in the lounge. We relaxed and made friends with
other lodge guests and watched the moon slide across the sky and Lake
Yellowstone. |

The next day was spent traveling the park
roads and observing the many wonders that Yellowstone provides for its
visitors each season. Numerous stops were made along the way, capturing
image after image of Bison, Elk, Eagles, Bear, and scenic vistas, as
well as the many fumaroles and geysers for which the park is so famous.
After another relaxing dinner where the guests had the chance to partake
of a delightfully lean bison sirloin and an evening with the new friends made from
the previous evening, a well earned sleep was in order before continuing on to
Cody, Wyoming, via Chief Joseph Pass. |
 |
 |
On our eighth day we traveled to Red Lodge,
Montana,
for lunch and a tee shirt from Bone Daddy’s Motorcycle Shop. Then it was up and
over Bear Tooth Pass with a second chance to enjoy Chief Joseph Pass as we
returned to Cody. After a terrific dinner at the Irma Hotel, the guests enjoyed
an evening at the Cody Rodeo Stampede, where some took the opportunity to test
their nerve on the back of a bull. |
 |
 |
Now it was off to Jackson,
Wyoming, and the Teton National Park for two nights and a
full day in the park. Breakfast was at
the Teton Village and then the cable car to the top of the Jackson Hole skiing
facility. After acquiring many more images, they returned to their bikes and into
the park where they were treated to moose grazing in the shallow lakes at the
south end of the park. On to Jenny Lake and the base of the Tetons
where we spent the day, with many stops for pictures and memory moments captured
in pixels.

 |
|
Finally, it was time to begin
the return trip home but not before stopping at the Craters of the Moon
National Monument in Idaho where we learned more about the geology of the land
that we had just spent the last ten days traveling across.
The guests seemed to agree that this trip
was one they would keep in their memories for years to come
and that this part of our nation is truly an area of paradise carved out of the
landscape for all to enjoy. |
