I wish I would have taken a real camera.
It was a beautiful day. Near Yellowstone park, Just outside Ashton Idaho. Snapped some photos with my phone ,one turned out good enough. I saw a fair number of bikes many coming from Yellowstone Park. This bike is nearly ready to ride out far away from home. What a great time of year to go riding, Light traffic and Perfect temps.

If you look in the far distant, you can see the west side view of the Grand Tetons. near Ashton Idaho.

Wow, I'm jealous. Gorgeous scenery. I have to be content riding my XS hundreds of miles through flat cornfields most of the time...

I'm just a bit north of you near Bozeman, MT. Lots of beautiful scenery to ride through in these parts. Been buzzing about on my TX650 lately. Seems to have taken precedence over my '46 Indian for a while. Either way, it's a beautiful part of the world for motorcycle riding..........Enjoy. With tourist season nearing an end, traffic has lessened here as well. An added bonus to this time of year..............Wes
