Re: Dang its early!! Or.. Why we do it

Dalhart construction is slated to last another year. I was just through there, and it was about a 15 minute ordeal is all.
 
Re: Dang its early!! Or.. Why we do it

Can someone tell me... Was road const in Dalhart...or Dumas???

Sent from my A450TL using Tapatalk

Dumas is fine, Dalhart is a mess. I've been through 3 times this year - in fact, this past Thursday. Westbound has never been bad, but coming home, I've seen 30-minute waits getting through the light at the railroad bridge. I was lucky on Thursday and got through in under 10.

Rod, lovin' the trip and your pictures. I see you found all the cooler spots. I was just up there, taking my grandson to scout camp near Colorado Springs, and it was HOT HOT HOT.

Re: Dang its early!! Or.. Why we do it

Dalhart mess can be easily skirted with side streets if you'll plan it on Google maps. Bikes and cars, not trucks.

My nod to gimmicky goodies from historic locations

I hava ton of pics from the motorcycle museum in Sturgis.... But those really need a separate thread.

The roads up north in the Black Hills were much less crowded so we took advantage..... But didnt take pics
