Welcome, and thanks for clicking. :beerchug:

Im off on an epic adventure through New Mexico.:cheerleader:
I am headed out of Casper Wyo. To Albuquerque NM. For an National Coalition Of Motorcyclist (NCOM) national convention. After im done with the convention, I am going to go check out some Billy the kid history. Meet up with a few friends, and in general, Have a good ol time!

DAY 1

I left out a little later than I wanted. That’s normal for me. I got up and changed the oil. i was on the road by about 10am.
Wait!
Had to stop by my buddy Mileage Mike’s house, he was printing me out some ABATE business cards. Finally leave town about 11am. It was a little windy.
The further south I got in Wyoming the colder I got. It was overcast and cold. I never did get rained or snowed on, but it was chilly. I put on my blizard proof overalls in Cheyenne. Sky was gloomy.

I stopped at the Colorado border for a pic, and put the hammer down. Ran 15 over for the rest of the afternoon. Traffic starts about FT. Collins, and lets up after you get past Colorado Springs. I caught a couple fellas on an R1 and some kind of Duc. sleepin, as I zipped past them in Co. Springs. They tried to catch back up, but I was too far ahead by the time they knew what happened. He he he.

I rolled into Pueblo late 6ish, and after a little tour around town I found my self at the sunset motel watching the sun set. Sitting in a metal lawn chair out front of my room, staring at the bike, drinkin a beer, and enjoyin life!
420.7miles today:laugh: i kinda feel like a wuss. but i have learned to enjoy and not push it.
Had some good Mexican food for dinner, and a BLANCA beer!:beerchug: Aww, fond thoughts of my friends.

Well I have most of my NCOM report written and my travel log started.
Think I’ll relax and watch some TV.

Going to Madrid in the morning. (where Wild Hogs was filmed!) :rofl:
Looking forward to carvin some corners in the mountains of New Mexico Tomorrow!:thumbsup:

well until the next installment.
Ride fast, Ride smart, Ride Often!
