Ed left the tour the following day making his own memorable solo ride back to Southern Utah with a promise that we’d ride together again, soon. Brian and I rode the Million Dollar Highway through Southwestern Colorado’s spectacular land. Not sure what it is about human nature that gets us to...

I'm blushing. Thanks. Looking forward to meeting up in Moab.

I'll be sure to post about its performance. I do post on ADVRider as imnost62.

Always, back on two wheels. Safe travels to you.

They're on ExPo, that's how they found it. Great thanks to Jack Mac for the feature classified.

It did. Always great to create new connections and friendships through this lifestyle.
