So first big day was today. We went from Clark Fork to Pierce. Left around 700am, arrived here around 5:15. Fuel stop was just in Wallace.
Leaving Clark Fork was a lot of narrow overgrown trails which made us go a lot slower to try and retain some safety coming around blind turns. Had some...
We are in Clark Fork. Very short day today but a nice ‘break in’.
We had a great ride, nice trails but quite a bit of asphalt. Tomorrow will be about double the ride.
After Pen Oreille, ran by lunchbox point.
The people at Clark Fork Lodge are amazing. Super nice people.
Chase guys are...
Day 1 🤙
Kootenai Inn was awesome. Very nice, updated rooms, good restaurant and bar and free breakfast at the restaurant. Plan is to leave this morning and head to border and then down to Clark Fork Lodge. Short day so we’ve got a couple loops planned if we decide we want to in the afternoon.
That really sucks. I know there are good remote workers, but Unfortunately I think that’s the exception and not the rule and as usual the bad people screw it up for everyone else.
Wheels down the whole way. 👍 Should be ~95% dirt
My cousin had them made. I’ll try to remember to ask him.
So today was prep and shakedown. A quick 50 mile loop from Bonners Ferry up to ~6k ft to a rad little lake. Chase guys got some dirt time too, which was nice 😁👍
Super cool cop stopped...
Haha, we definitely all know guys that go for the drinking more than the riding 😁
That’s right, I forgot about that! That’s still a fun ride down the East side of the river but it’s gotten rough. I’ll have to shoot you our path down the West side sometime 👍
We talked about it and went back and forth but decided that not having any reliance or responsibility to anyone else was the more prudent choice for us.
That is our old house, we actually sold it recently and are renting it back through the end of the month as we are building up in Alpine...
