We stayed at the Fairbridge Inn in Dillon, right at $100 last week of July. Looks like everyone is jacking the price for Labor Day weekend.

Hope you enjoy the ride, pull in and check out the camp ground at price creek.

I'm interested in seeing how the HD PanAm looks as well. I've heard it may be a bit different than what was at the dealer show. For the better I hope.

Reference the CVO, if you really want one, find one, make the deal, fly and ride! 😎

There are a very few special roads for me that would get a 10.... The Lolo, Kootenay Lake rd, Hells Canyon, Duffy Lake Rd to name a few .... and it is time to add another.... the road that goes from Wise River on the 43 south to just below Polaris and the 278..... it has everything, 8,000 ft Mountain Pass, tight twisties, big sweepers and beautiful Mountain views. There’s even a Hot Springs to test your weary bones.... and lots of campsites that looked mostly empty, even on Labor Day weekend. Put this on on your Bucket list, it is worthy.

My favorite: a cortado with an eggie as a first breakfast. Shameless plug here for one of the coffee spots my daughter and son-in-law have, but good stuff. It’s Drum Coffee because he’s the drummer for Fitz and the Tantrums.
