Warm Lake Run


View Larger Map


What a great place to visit! Today, the weather was perfect. There was still plenty of snow on the sides of the road after leaving Cascade, but the roads were in great condition. As you can see from the image, the lake was absolutely beautiful. We took a picnic and dined with several of our Boise Valley Rider friends. Warm Lake Road was very twisty, newly paved, and a delight to ride. But beware the local police - since the economy is down, the police seem to be stopping and citing more traffic offenders, so watch your speed!

Pack a lunch, gas up the bike, and experience one of Idaho's scenic wonders.

Round trip - approximately 205 miles.

Take a Ride in the Desert


View Larger Map

If you want to take in some fantastic desert scenery, then try this ride. Go to Marsing and pick up Hwy 78 to Grand View. The view of the Owyhee Front is terrific, plus there is some very nice scenery along the way.


Be sure to stop at the Y Bar & Cafe for a bite to eat - the food and the service are both very good.

Total round trip miles is approximately 140.

New Addition to the Garage


I finally took the plunge and purchased a touring bike - a big, beautiful (in my eyes), yellow Gold Wing. What an incredible machine. I can't wait for the opportunity to ride on some long trips this season including Sturgis.
