Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

After posting the above message I realized I had not logged Ron out so it posted as him. Sorry for the confusion but at least he has an interesting signature picture to look at.

We loaded up the trike in Buena Vista and headed for home in Iowa. After being in the mountains the scenery is not much to talk about or photograph on the way home. But we made it home and have all these great pictures to remind us of our trip. Can't wait to do it again next year.

We made our way east and then north from Durango and stopped in Buena Vista. We found a place to park the car and trailer, unloaded the trike, threw an overnight bag in it and hit the road to explore the area. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5700_zpsa78e7afc.jpg h...

Durango is a really neat town also. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and there are a lot of old buildings in downtown Durango. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5662_zps3b8d4e4a.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5664_zps...

On our way back to Durango we stumbled onto the Mesa Verde National Park so we decided to go check it out. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5619_zpsfb44310a.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5622_zps02f716f0.jpg http://i366.pho...

Thanks again guys, Great pics, I just love your country, especially the West - the landscape is just awesome. Lots of great trip ideas. Gordon (pining for the States) Gordon, I'm glad my travel pictures can give you an idea of where to go when you do come over! I know we sure enjoy seeing different...

Deb, You guys are doing what many envy. In the last few years, you've had your trike all over this country. When I grow up, I want to be like you. Question, In your pictures, sometimes there's a car or truck, and sometimes your trike is on a trailer. What's your normal mode of operation? Do you tra...

The day was overcast with some sprinkles from time to time but we still had a great day. Ouray, CO is really neat. They have a lot of old buildings there so it is always fun to drive through there. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5582_zps33c3c5cf.jpg http://i366.p...

After wandering around Gallup, NM for a day we headed north to Durango, CO. Another pretty drive. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5529_zps0cd73efc.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5534_zps984fed9b.jpg http://i366.photobucket....

Here are some other photos from the Gallup, NM area. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5414_zpsb4101b1e.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5416_zps63129ce6.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5...

After getting back to our place in Apache Junction from the trip up north, we got up nice and early to head out for a ride on the 4 wheeler in the desert. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5384_zpsc664af69.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation...

From Clifton we took Hwy 78 over into New Mexico where we joined Hwy 180 to head north. We had gorgeous weather the whole time and the ride was fantastic. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5337_zpsb0be2a8c.jpg We even saw a lot of deer and elk. Luckily, they were al...

Heading up toward Show Low, AZ it is more wide open and green. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5289_zpse96d725f.jpg We took Hwy 60 to Hwy 191 where we entered the White Mountains and temps in the low 80's. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%2...

After spending a couple of days around the Butte, MT area we decided to head to Arizona and check on our house in Apache Junction and visit with friends. The first opportunity we got we jumped in the 4 wheeler for a ride out in the desert. We got up at 5:30 am to beat the heat and it was worth it! W...

We also rode around the surrounding country side. It was a beautiful day and the landscape out there was really cool. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5216_zpsae56f544.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5217_zpsf716eaf2.jpg http...

After spending a couple of days in Yellowstone we headed up to Butte, MT. Now this is an interesting place. They are a mining town with an incredible, well preserved Historic Downtown and a ton of amazing Victorian style houses. My favorite things! http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vac...

Of course any time there is wildlife near the roadway there will be a traffic jam. So you have to allow for some slow paced travel but boy is it worth it. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5153_zps21b995c9.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation...

More scenery from Yellowstone. If you are thinking of going you really need to allow at least 2 full days. There is so much to see! http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5121_zps13e3292f.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5123_zpse8b...

After riding around the Black Hills we headed over to Yellowstone National Park. We came in through Cody, WY and it was a beautiful ride. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5071_zpsff357963.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5072_...

There are several really neat small towns that you ride through. I love the buildings. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5057_zps583423dc.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5058_zps1fe04e0f.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/...

More scenery from the Black Hills. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5029_zps2be9a248.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5030_zps531eb9cd.jpg http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/Vacation%202014/DSCN5035_zps390e33e3.jp...

Ron and Deb are an another adventure. We decided to head out to the Sturgis area to see the Black Hills before all the motorcycles got there. We have been there several times and it is always beautiful. My favorite things are the wildlife! Like this guy. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/drie...

Wednesday was another beautiful day but there was rain forecast for the late afternoon. We headed out toward West Salem that day. This is near the Interstate and we drive by it every year. It just tickles me so I took a picture. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/LaCrosse%202014/LaCross...

Tuesday morning we are gearing up for another beautiful day and ride. http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/driehm/LaCrosse%202014/LaCrosse2014046_zps46a4d04a.jpg I didn't get nearly as many photos on Tuesday since I was not the passenger but the driver. However, when our ride took a strange turn...
