    I had to look it up... http://www.beartoothhighway.com/ The Beartooth Highway (US212) is open for the 2010 season. The Beartooth Pass area of the Highway may close periodically when it snows and blows too much.

    ... its quite nimble with the windshield removed and new Avon Venoms on it. I was very happy with the way my 08 RSTD handled Saturday on the ride to NE TN. I replaced the rear Bridgestone just after Vogel last fall with a Venom. The handling was a bit better but not as good as I would have liked. Just replaced the front BS with a 130 width H rated Avon Venom and the bike handles noticeably better. Its certainly not as nimble as my Triumph, which is 300lbs lighter, but its pretty good. fyi. I mistakenly ordered a V-rated rear Venom. Avon customer support says that the V-rated is intended for the V-Max, and has a softer rubber compound than the recommended H-rated rear. So, I probably won't get as much mileage from it, but it feels good on the road.

    You might want to get on these people's mailing list. They had the best prices I could find last year when I bought a crossbow. http://northwoodsoutlet.com/

    Dennis, quite a ride... for those thinking about this ride. An alternate route is US 6 over the peaks instead of I-70 thru the tunnel, another spectacular view.

    I've been on T-Mobile for a number of years, but am going to switch to another carrier. Too many dead spots with T-Mobile.

    Earl (skydoc) recently upgraded Jonas's Tour Classic with a substantial HP increase. I think there's already a thread somewhere about what he did and the results.

    I wanted to post a good comment about dealer Turn1 in Plymouth, Indiana. They are a dealer for Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, and Victory (and Polaris). I had tire troubles with my old Bushtec trailer on the trip to Potato Creek. After several stops and tele calls elsewhere trying to find new tires and tubes, Turn1 took care of me. They had tubes in stock, and ordered a pair of new tires for me which they installed on Thursday as I was leaving the International Rally. They were knowledgeable, and good to work with, and made time for me while I was on the road. And their prices seemed quite fair. I'll point out that they have a pair of new-old stock Ventures on the floor. A 2009 Red/Black, and a 2008 Silver S model. And a used 2009 Seashell/Raven. Also having a Victory factory truck demo days on July 30-31 which I wish I was nearby to take advantage of. http://turn1.com/

    Just got home here in Georgia. Beat the rain by about 30 minutes it would seem. Stopped at Turn1 Motorsports in Plymouth Indiana, about 15 miles south of Potato Creek. They mounted a new set of tires on my trailer to replace the old ones that came with it when I bought it in April (had ordered the tires on Monday thru them). Then had a 2 hour ride accross US 30 to Southbend, IN where one of my brothers lives. Visited the Cord, Auburn, and Duesenberg car museum in Auburn, IN on Friday. That museum is a must-see for anyone even vaguely interested in automotive history and classic old cars. http://www.automobilemuseum.org/Pages/default.aspx
