Day 11

We are all still 'decompressing' from the ride.
Catching up on TV, stretching our legs and giving our butts a break.
We've got to get the bikes unloaded, cleaned, maintained (oil changes) and preped for sale.
Dan and Chris have laundry to do and plan on seeing family and some of the sites in S.D. before we head back to Michigan on Friday.
But, this is not the end of the blog. Far from it.
When I get back to Grand Rapids, and have access to better technology, I plan to post more details regarding the route. Daily starts, fuel stops, places visited, things seen, eaten and stops.
We've got some videos taken from Ray's handlebar cam that I need to experiment with.
We've all got thoughts, suggestions and ideas for the next trip, and I'll use this blog to preserve those comments.
Prior to leaving on the trip, I prepared several lists of stuff to take, what to see, routes... Now that we can sit back and analyze the adventure, I'll post any changes to the equipment I'd bring, or not bring, next time.
Yes there will be a 'next time'! We'll be looking for more riders, supporters and followers. So, start planning a couple of weeks sometime next year. We'll probably try to go a couple of weeks later, to avoid the cold, and definitely take a different route, but we are already talking about what to do, where to go, what to ride, what to see, where and how to spend the nights... cool stuff.
See you back on this blog in a couple of days.
