A COLD day of riding in the High Uintas of Utah

Took the machines out today and had a problem free day of riding! I like it when that happens. We were up around 8000-9000 feet elevation in these pics. It was a whopping 5 degrees today up there. But we had loads of fun.

Looks like a fun time! It's helpful that it's cold for you guys, the dang weather sure isn't cooperating west of you

Oh well, maybe I should hook my trailer up and head to Utah!

Nice! It was -27C (-17F) this morning before we headed out for a quick 40 mile run for lunch. It quickly warmed to -18C (0F) by our return though.

Here's a pic of my wife and middle son enjoying the Ultra. I was allowed to drive the Grand Touring on my own for a while as Brennen gave it up to drive his mom around for a bit. Got it up to around 130 km/hr (80 mph) before the twisties reappeared.
