  • I'm calling Day 3 of the 2021 Cross Country Motorcycle Trip "The REDEMPTION Ride" for one simple reason. Those of you who followed along in 2020, know I had to have my bike trailered into Pueblo, Co due to a failed fuel pump. In 2021, my sister and I left Topeka, KS visiting Garden of the Gods along the way, and I made it into Pueblo under the bike's own power this year; hence "The REDEMPTION Ride." Hope you enjoy it!

    Another great video! I am blessed living and riding in the Pacific Northwest! So many great roads, great scenery and great people from the west coast to the Black Hills. These videos get me through the dreary winter and make me chomp at the bit to plan my next trip! Thanks for sharing your adventures!

    Since I live in the Midwest going west is a 1000 miles of boring, before you get to the good roads . However once you get to the good roads you forget about the flat crappy parts. We as motorcyclist enjoy cool roads with cool scenery. Always remember, The only bad motorcycle trip is the one you don't come home from.

    If you want a picture with the real Dorothy, her house is at the bottom of Kansas in Liberal. Munchkins and presidents have visited the museum there. A little way north of there is Dodge City where Marshall Dillon and Festus kept the law (at least on TV).

    Going west out of Pueblo not far past the last traffic light, maybe a mile, is a "hog back" one lane and one way road on top of a pretty tall, narrow rock formation. There's dinosaur foot prints on top. It's paved all the way. Comes out back in Pueblo. About a 2 mile ride, if you're ever back there.

    Salina, KS is my hometown. I hope everyone was nice to you. Also, loved the line "this room doesn't smell like gasoline" as you entered your room. You also re-discovered the unusual reality that the Eastern part of "Colorful" Colorado looks exactly like Kansas, just with worse roads.

    • @2WR
      @2WR  2 роки тому +1

      Mere, I hope at least a few people got the "gasoline smell" reference. Everyone in KS was super friendly. I still remember the first time I got to Colorado and thought "damn place looks the same as Kansas...WTF?"

    Nothing like a bit of highway hypnosis and missing the exit, eh? Such exciting scenery going across Kansas. I actually started to fall asleep on the bike once, going across I10 in southern NM, but that was after riding all night coming out of LA. Pulled into a rest area, put the bike up on the centerstand, laid back on the seat and closed my eyes for a bit of rest, opened them and found the sun had moved quite a bit! The things you get away with when you're young and don't know better (I'd just turned 21)! After that trip I worked with a guy who tried to tell me it never gets cold in the desert; I told him to ride a bike through Wilcox, AZ around 5am in early Nov. and then tell me it isn't cold! Nice drone footage, haven't been to Garden of the Gods myself.

      Well, that's different! I've seen a "bear crossing" sign (on US58 near Lover's Leap, southern VA), and saw one go tearing through the trees while on Skyline Drive one night, but never saw one while on a bike!
