Damn E-dog. You got me hooked in the first line. The sunrise pick over the Tiger was USDA Choice #1. 10 deg F???!!!???

Wooohooo!!!

WTG Rider!

Great pix and a good looking bike.
You're not missing a glove are ya?

Did you buy your bike at Foothills?

BTW I know that's the highest PAVED road in the US... is there a higher nonpaved road?

I got all my gloves. The wind blew them all over the place.

Got my bike at Erico Motorsports.

Well thanks. I tried to capture some of the subtleties that were important to me. I get lucky sometimes on the pics. I didn't plan that sunrise pic at all. I just happend to park my bike like that and when I went to take the pic, I saw the sun starting to peak up right in the middle of the screen.:):

Thanks to everyone and their nice comments. I am glad I got to share the memory with those who understand. It really feels good to contribute to the Ride Reports forum to inspire others. I know many of the reports have inspired me. I think this section more than any other on the website really captures the true spirit of Advrider. To many more rides!

It would have to be Colorado. Treeline up here isn't 10000 feet though, more like 3000. There's a quote that i learned in a Wilderness Survival class I took in high school-"from the mountain, you can see the mountain". It certainly applies here. Great work, E-dog.:): :):
