Now you called that a "slightly modified" Nomad? Very nice shot!

jeeze!! I forgot about that John. Well you be sure to give me a call if you're coming through Langley again. But give me some time where we could go for a ride and not just coffee before you head out. I could arrange a a small grp. ride maybe with "E" & "hammer" .

Thanks folks.
It was a nice ride - but I agree that the Canadian rockies seem a bit more rugged (though I could be biased).
Looks like I am headed back down that way again next month! Nice.

I really enjoyed the strech between Libby and Kalispell. Nice quiet sweeping turns, no bucket laws, and a nice liberal speed limit.....

As a side note, we had a guy in our group towing a trailer. He opted not to do the going to the sun highway and detoured around using highway #2 and met us in St. Mary. He'd also just done that pass a few months back. He said it was just as good as the g2sun hwy...

so, if you have some extra time on your hands, consider doing a circle route using both roads.

We went for a Sunday ride and over the Logan was our choice. We went to West Glacier and were going to come back that way, but because of the construction and the idiots stopping to look at furry animals, we decided once over the top was enough so we came back on Hwy. 2 through the Marias Pass. Once we get to East Glacier, we turn onto Montana 49 and then onto Hwy. 89 and end up at St. Mary, which the start of Glacier Park on the east side. It's about a 7 hour trip for us, counting stops to rehydrate and a fantastic ride. We do this ride many times in the summer, since St. Mary is an hour from where we live, and have done so for years. We never fail to enjoy it each and every time.

The construction on the GTTS is not that much of a bother it's the cagers that stop in the middle of the road, pile out of their cars to take pictures of anything that moves and sometimes things that don't move. We saw a guy laying on the side of the road one time, taking pics of a flower; couldn't hardly see him laying in the grass but the car stopped in the middle of the road was a sure bet someone saw something and it was a sign for everyone else to stop and look.

The ride from West Glacier to St. Mary was much more pleasant and fun, especially Montana 49 and 89. Those 2 roads are a series of twisties, with some to the extreme, with the speed limit posted at a speed you can't ride at so you can actually go the speed you want instead of 25 mph, like on the Logan. Very little traffic to deal with, so it makes the ride even better.

Everyone coming to the rally will get to ride this whole route, going through the Marias in the morning and over the Logan in the afternoon. Everyone is in for real treat, riding what we consider to be one of the best, if not the best ride in North America.

Oh sure C.C. as if I don't feel bad enough!!! Now I can think I'm missing an opportunity to ride one of the best roads. :-/ ::) :(
