We completed out trip and had a great time. For the most part weather was pretty good. Second day we rode from Cody up the Chief Joseph's highway and over the Beartooth to Red Lodge. Then that afternoon back over the Beartooth to Cooke City. Doing the Beartooth twice in one day gets to be a bit much. Especially in the rain. We just pulled out of Red Lodge heading to Cooke City when it began to rain. Rained the whole way. All those switchbacks and hairpins in the rain made for a real "pucker upper" ride. But we made it without incident.

I've done this ride around Wyoming a couple of times so anyone looking for some advice or assistance in planning such a trip can shoot me a PM. I'd be glad to help you out.

Ride Safe!
