".......and the relationship between you two is??????????????"

:P

The TMIC after day one.

I think bugs help boost as my ECU recorder shows a peak speed of 229km/hr, the true speed may have been more as I burried the needle (230 max). Not bad for the altitude, hot ambiant temperatures, two occupants, luggage, full tank of gas and a stock ride.

Yes it was a fun trip in many ways. B)

Well BF&GF is easier to pronounce than those fancy french words those destined to be together often use. We still got in (to the US) didn't we? I seem to remember the customs agent shaking my hand and saying "way to go sir, carry on and have a safe ride" just before he saluted me?

Glad you had a great time. Looks like you saw some pretty amazing stuff!
WELCOME HOME YOU TWO.

^^^^

:lol: No. There was a cliff passed that rock and I was holding on the rock so I wouldn't fall down. However, since Andrew likes taking a lot of pictures of me... I turned around to get a picture!

Sounds like it was fun!

We Did It! - dBlast - 06-19-2006

The pictures remind me of my trip. I have some identical shots.

I also went in June many, many years ago. It was not surprising to see snow in the mountains in AB one day and desert heat a few days later in SD.
