This state is ridiculous. Again we were granted a day of friggin amazing riding. Forget going to a national park and just follow our tracks through the state. I promise you will be blown away.
Massive terrain changes throughout the day and the roads were pretty much empty in the best sections. The canyons we ended the day in yesterday were amazing this morning.  The motel we stayed in last night was fantastic. A little place called the Rimrock Hotel, in Naturita. We chilled outside next to our bikes, watched the sunset, and did as we pleased. It was an awesome experience.
We have a couple 360s for you guys but the internet is usually an issue. The file sizes are just too large. Speaking of large, today I had a dark passenger that I want to talk about. We had just summited a mountain and were twisting our way back down the other side when suddenly I realized I had a guest. There was a little foreplay at first, but not the usual kind. There wasn’t biting or the typical stuff, this little bastard seemed to be climbing off my ear, on to the helmet, then back to my ear. I remember saying, “Get it over with!” (phrasing) And I violently shook my head. Well that didn’t sit well with the little monster and it began trying to fly in the small inescapable place between my ear and helmet. I told the guys we need to stop, ain’t no way I can concentrate anymore. We pull off into soft dirt, I gave Orion way too much front brake and almost dumped the bike. I didn’t drop the bike but the force of stopping racked me against the tank. I ripped my helmet off and inside was a big ass bee. Not cool, but way better than any day at work.
