Far end of Oklahoma panhandle

Panhandle

On to New Mexico

We are heading east out of the panhandle of Oklahoma and heading to
New Mexico. A short trip through the upper corner of the state and
into Colorado.

I love road food

This is a HALF order of something called an Indian Taco at the White
Buffalo in a small tat town in Oklahoma. It cost $3.50 and was
Fantastic. The proprietor makes the frybread fresh and the taco
filling was
Really fresh. I haven't eaten since I ha this today..... I may not
eat again until tomorrow! ( who the hell eats a Full
Order ? )

Mt60's on the Ulysses

On a bridge over a river in west Oklahoma:
Here are the mt-60 corsa's on the Ulysses after 650 hard miles mostly
off road on gravel and rocks. Probably 100 or so on pavement. I'm
running the tires at 25- 27 psi all the time. They are providing
excellent traction on and off road. We have been lucky and have had
zero mud or sand to deal with. The mt-60's tear up the street just
like the stock syncs but require a little more input to the bars.
Off road they handle dirt perfectly as well as gravel of every kind
imagineable. We all compare notes after any particularly difficult
section like sections of large fresh gravel or uphills with many sharp
loose stones. Both the other riders report the same handling
characteristics. This really surprised me
As I thought the tkc'80s on the bmw's would be vastly different/ better.

More Oklahoma

Outside it's America

Camels by the roadside in Oklahoma.
The roads and conditions are perfect
Thanks to the rains that passed thru
Last night. Bikes and gear are doing great. Full gear report
coming soon.

Man down story

So I was heading down a steep wide gravel road and heading into a
corner that was tightening as it went. I was coming in too fast and
instinctively hit the front brake. When the front wheel started to
slide I released the fromt brake and hit the back brake. I fishtailed
toward the edge of the road, almost made it when the back wheel
slipped off the edge of the road and I went down.

Slow speed fall and no damage to me or the bike.

What a day....

This a picture of Greg after a really really fun and fast ride through
an AMAZING 30 mile section of the TAT in the Ozarks near Oark AR. I
love this picture because Greg looks exactly like I
felt....exhilarated, spent, satisfied, surprised, triumphant,
challenged....... And ready to do it again asap.

Man down

Story to follow, but bike is fine and Greg is fine.
