We're halfway. The Italian group is off alone down through Colorado to
Moab, UT. I'm resting in Denver playing golf with my brother. I'll catch
up. I needed a break from the very intensive babysitting. We've already
had 5 police incidents (full reports to follow later). The Italian style
driving is making me nuts. I had to serve as translator at the Harley
motor factory outside Milwaukee. I had to escort a group into downtown
Sturgis at the height of the trailer festival. We've only had a few
breakdowns. Fixed most. One old BMW with a dead starter will require push
starts for the second half of the trip. Not a show stopper. One minor
parking lot crash to a Triumph Speed Triple. Weather reports have been
rediculous. We had an "occasional" shower report for Minnesota and drove
250 miles in the rain, some of it quite intense. We had a "steady rain"
tapering to "frequent showers" report in Rapid City. Drove two miles in a
mist and then never saw another drop. I've stopped looking at forecasts.
I'm riding up to Wyoming tomorrow to visit my horse wrangler son and then
down to re-join the tour in southern Utah on Friday. Home in San Francisco
the following Wednesday.
