And I absolutely love the Jura Henrik. I spent a bunch of time in a small village called Viller-le-Lac just across the French border. What a great place to ride.

That is cool that you know my "backyard"! I love riding around here, and the road from St Claude, past Pontarlier to Morteau just before Villers-le-Lac is my favourite Sunday ride. To be honest, I prefer this to the Alps as the roads are less crowded and more flowing.

Beautiful alprider , your photo's are stunning.
I have had 3 Goldwings and i agree with your friend. did 120 miles yesterday on the CB with my wife and she said i was squirming in the seat the last 50

Nice little 180-mile breakfast ride today. It's been very warm in the flatlands lately and the mountains have been really comfortable (70's-80's). No summer tourist traffic yet.

Ferret and Offroad, you might recognize these vistas from your visit to Colorado last summer.

1) Guanella Pass, elev. 11,670', with a nice view of Mt. Bierstadt, elev. 14,065' in the distance. It's more dramatic in person. Nary a cloud in the sky and very little snow remaining considering it's only the second week of June! Guanella Pass Road connects Georgetown and Grant, CO, a distance of 24 miles. Until two years ago, the southern section was unpaved but now that it's been paved, it's heavenly. Anyone coming out this way for a ride should include this pass on their itinerary.




2) Entry to the Mt. Evans Scenic Road, the highest paved road in North America. Tops out at 14,260', way above treeline, and typically cold and gusty. The road opened for the summer two weeks ago and will close the day after Labor Day. I imagine the heavy equipment in the background got quite a workout clearing the snow.




3) Winding down to Evergreen, CO, from Echo Lake on CO-103. This is about 15 minutes from my front door. The peaks in the background (looking west) are about 13,000'.

i'm learning more and more that alprider has a thing for the color yellow.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice picture EOW. Love the white!

Hey Ears On Wheels welcome back! We missed you at the rally.

Love where you live LR (in the summer). Just reunited with a bow hunting buddy from Indiana that moved to near Rifle Colo. He loves it out there.

Very nice EOW. Thank you
