    No blog of yours is complete without the usual cock-ups associated with your presence, it is reassuring to know that you are over in the States, inflicting them with your unique brand of gremlin conditions!

    I'm not seeing it too often, only when up in the mountain passes. My highest temperature so far has been 36.5, but that should be surpassed in the next few days.

    Dang, I thought something nefarious had befelled the Gremlinator! As usual, the local people have to put up with this moving black spot. Quite a few days missing, the usual sprinkling of Harley jokes, dirty bike, sleeping in ... I daresay that this is all par for the course!

    Now, when are you really going to write about the entertaining stuff?

    Great pics again. Wish I had the time + money. Thanks for sharing. Harley riders hassling you about a dirty bike. Oh, my. Ironic, considering they need a parts store and an oil catch to keep moving. I hear 98% of all American made bikes are still on the road................................. the rest made it home.

    High beam light. I can still see the edges of it, but it drove me nuts on the KTM when I did all the night riding, so now I cover all my high beam indicator lights. You can still see its on, but it's just not quite as bright, which helps night vision.

    South east of USA (not where I'm going) has definitely been in a heat wave, setting a record of more than 30 days over 100F.

    I would say it depends on length, but I'm also doing it with a group. 11 bikes were shipped over, so used up most of a container, and about $3k to ship. I was told hiring a bike for 6 weeks would be about $7500, so if you can do without your bike, then it works.

    I also had no need for another bike (buy in USA and ship back) and the timeframe was far too tight to buy and then try to sell. I also have the perfect bike for the trip, it appears in my photos etc, so I definitely think taking my own was the best for me.

    Others couldn't do without their bikes, apparently servicing is thrown in as part of hire etc. I service mine so often (plus tyres) it doesn't really bother me.

    tourons? Yes, I believe one was eaten within a week or two of us being there... loving the warnings like stay in your car...

    Montana is like a little country of it's own. That is why I am here. Few people ( less than a million) and lots of roads to travel. Very independent people. It is just "one big dysfunctional family." The scenery and sky effects are incredible. Not much into staring at the bike during the LONG winters, though. Gonna consider some dirt and snowmobile fun. Come visit- I'll buy the first round!
