Ride across the USA

Day two. I was riding from Hanksville to Escalante right through the middle of Capitol Reef National Park and over the Boulder Plateau.
Got up early and was on the road by 7:30 AM after breakfast and locking up the truck and trailer.



Bike loaded, gassed and ready to go:

Prior to entering the town of Escalante I stopped by our hotel to confirm check in time. These were sitting out front. 30 something hipsters were riding them. Had the beards and Vans sneakers to match, but good on them...they're out there riding.



I stopped by the Motorcycle Doctor first to drop off the tires.





What passes for lawn ornamentation at the doctors house:



I wasn't able to get a hold of Django so I decided to ride east towards Grand Staircase Escalante and maybe meet him along the road.









Django and I met on Main street in the early afternoon and headed over to the doctor to get the new shoes put on his ride.



We had an early dinner while the tires were put on and then headed to our hotel and got comfortable for the evening. we sat out front of the room and had a couple of beers and discussed Django's ride up until today. Here ends day two.
