Colorado via Mexico or...

A quick pit stop in Austin to drop off the GS and pick up the DR and we were off and headed to the mountains with the cool Kendon trailer I picked up from Kurt. Thanks, Kurt.

We ran into this couple in Lake City. They were riding from Delaware to Oregon via the TAT on an F650 and a stripped down 2008 R12GS. They had just performed a cannisterectomy on the F bike in the motel parking lot. They had GREAT attitudes. I sure hope I run across their ride report when they finish...

The only casualty of the trip...a flat rear. Scott rode on it all day all day long on day 1 and it only gave up the ghost on the last downhill stretch coming into Ouray. It's better to be lucky than good sometimes.

What a GREAT time you had! Thanks for sharing. :mrgreen:
 
Great pics, great story, great trips. We talked about going to Guanajuato while we were in Leon, but we couldn't get the time with all the work we were doing. Next time for sure. It's a beautiful city, judging from your pictures.

We all loved the Mexican roof dogs. The ones on either side of us loved us, too, because they got leftover hot dogs.
 
WOW!!!

<<<envious.

i have been waiting for the last installment of this rr...awesome stuff!!!
 
Wow, it's been almost a year since I've been to Mexico.... That might explain the tremors I've been having in my throttle (and beer) hand. July, perhaps...
