There are many more pictures of the rally start at the Smugmug link.
We finished packing our bike and had a nice long chat with another couple from Seattle who were also heading home.We then departed around 10am on a route that would take us west on I-70 to Salina, UT and then a short jog up to Delta, UT where we ended up spending the night.
It was a nice ride up and over the Rocky Mountains through Vail (lunch break)
At Palisade, CO we experienced a severe electrical storm, so we elected to get off the bike and wait out the storm in the local park. It was a wise choice as the storm was quite powerful. When a clearing in the clouds occurred, we continued our ride west.
The scenery on I-70 was terrific and we enjoyed it immensely.
Pulling into Salina, we stopped for a milk shake to combat the temperatures.
Continuing on we arrived in Delta, UT and found a motel (Diamond D - Family owned and clean and neat). A terriyaki dinner from the restaurant across the street was then was consumed. (Sorry, Mr. Cow was left at the motel).
