Cycles Motoring Zion Park

DaddyO

Would just love to ride over the rode on a motor cycle. But so far I haven't allowed myself the joy.
Probably because I lack the skill to know how to ride right and safe. One thing I do is grab the shot of bikers riding when and where they are around me. You went high key Mary Kim... with this one I'll have to go color.

Wow ... with all that beautiful scenery around you .. you have to go color

Really like how you caught the last rider blurred. Looks like he's playing catch-up.

Now that, Michael, is some great country to ride around in. When I see scenes like that, I still get an itch to mount up and go. But those days are gone for me. The last long journey I took on my bike covered 2700 miles. Have you ever heard the term " monkey butt "? Ask any biker that does long-distance riding about it.....they'll know what I mean.:D

Monkey butt .. never heard of that, but I've seen guys get off a bike walking like they've been riding a horse a long long way

That is a very nice shot and so vibrant. Like the framing too.

Thanks Mary, pleased you like it. Glad I was there taking in the sights when that big group passed by. They were having a great time with a beautiful day and place. The bikes sported flags from lots of different countries. Made me wonder where they had been and where they were bound for.

Hey Tom Read your mention of all the years you have been riding. Practically as many as I am old. 2700 miles is a heck of ride. Am betting it was worth the time in the saddle then and everytime before. Good on ya No doubt you have a ton of pics to show for it
Was talking to a gent from Canada on a kawasaki klr 650 I think it was. At Ruby Inn Bryce Canyon. Said he had just got into riding a little after he turned 60 something. Mentioned that the previous year he and some friends rode from Canada to Mexico down the continental divide way.
Went on to say they crossed it around 27 times or so. Wow. Now theres some living going on

Thank you Phil. Very nice of you to say. I spent quite a bit of time trying to get it to shine some. Especially trying to get the blue something like correct along with everything else.
