The typical HUB breakfast ! YUM !



Here is the little girl who was so kind and gentle.. She just wanted a treat from everyone... The "HUB" dog..




Everyone around the camp fire each night !



Tallgears out on the trail.



A little fog each morning !






SUPER COOL Rally plaque...



Getting ready for meet and greet... Here are some custom name tags that YAMAHA printed up for us..




Here is my Kenda Big Block Gen II after 1595 miles of hard on and off road.






And last but not least, World Famous hard to find, and ever elusive, the Snake..



And the HUB,

Here are some pics of our trip:



Good food.

Hey friends, finally made it home! Las Vegas never looked so good! Three 500 mile days and home at last! Starting in June, my big blue has been 9,584.4 miles from garage to garage. By far, the best riding was the wonderful roads of Arkansas. Thanks to Karson and Jaxon for setting up another great rally! It was nice seeing all the fellow riders but my two highlights were having my brother along and seeing my old friend Snakebitten! The talks around the "teardrop" we're the best!
It was my honor to get to ride and see you all at the rally. Can't wait till next year!!!!

Three more days for us to get home. Trying to beat a cold front heading towards PNW this weekend, calling for mixed rain and snow in higher areas. The weather in our travels has so far been near perfect.

Thanks for the update. I was wondering how your trip home was going.

Nice picture Steve.
A cold front dropped down onto us forcing a re route to avoid below freezing temps in the mornings. Heading up I5 and then over to 101 for the final run up the coast.
California drivers are nuts
Thanks for following along
Doug, Bernie and Ron

Hey Doug, Bernie, & Ron - great to hear your progress to PNW. I know you wanted to avoid I5 but better to stay off possible ice! Here's some geology for ya: don't trust the side stand at campsite in the loess bluffs of western Iowa; all silt, no rock for 200' down. Adrenalin got her up, no damage. Good riding, guys.
