Heading back to one of my favorite places to ride Chief Joseph and Bear Claw Hwys on the last week of August.

Will start in Boise, then off to Butte Montana via 21 and 93. Then over to Red Lodge to ride the passes there.

The worse part of the ride is traveling through Yellowstone to the Grand Tetons to Jackson

Will head from Jackson to Salt Lake through Soda Springs and Garden City.

If you see 2 RSs blasting the turns with old guys in the saddle...could be us!

Absolutely fantastic riding. I have been through bits of your route on my Guzzi and plan to go back next spring on my RS. If you have time, check out the ride from Lewiston, ID. to Missoula, MT on US12. A little over 200 miles, this will take you through the Nez Perce Reservation and over Lolo Pass...a really incredible ride. Have fun and safe travels.

Oh...and I think it's the BearTOOTH Highway. The BearCLAW Highway is littered with pastry shops.
