Pictures from the Fourth trip

Post by ian »

Hey guys, I posted on the Fourth about my plans, but for those of you who don't know, my dad and I took the bikes about 215 miles out to Copper Breaks State Park and then took the long way home the next day. Here are a few of the 150+ pictures I took.

About an hour and a half from the park, we hit some rain.

My bed

Breakfast of Champions!

Our charming alarm clock

my face shield was covered with bugs from our late night

back on the road again, free roaming cattle
Image
some of the wide open plains
Image
Road to Nowhere

The orange one is my dad's, a 91 Kawasaki ZR750, went by "zephyr" back then. He just got it repainted last fall and it is so sweet...

That kawi is pretty cool looking.

I didn't know that there were that many trees in TX. I expected to see cacti, rattlesnakes and cowboys everywhere! :tard:

Really nice shots! Living on either coast, it's hard to believe there is that much open country in the US anymore..
