Umm, I must admit... We only had a week. It would have taken 3 days of slabbing it just to reach the area by motorbike, then 3 days back. 6 days lost to just highway. It was decided to trailer it. We did the commute in 30hours straight. One drives while the other sleeps, then switch.
'Twas well worth it. Check out this road!
Looks like beartooth pass. Well worth the drive or ride.

Well then, how dare you trailer your bike, and then ride it around a beautiful playground!
In all seriousness, pics look awesome! That is a dream road for sure!
Beartooth for sure given the snow ....had fun on it a year ago June. You got clearer skies. I hit a bridge joint on the way down and the loaded Vstrom left a big trail of sparks. Kid of course played hooligan all the way up and down.
A days drive ( long day ) from Toronto is Mount Washington in New Hampshire ...highest in the east.
Wild road up but too much traffic today to make use of it.
What we had to deal with in front of us….freaked drivers

The first time I saw that vid, i actually spit my food out of my mouth I was laughing so hard. It reminds me of the first time I tried to take a corner on my first bike and had no idea how to lean. That rider should be confined to basic roads until gaining some cornering experience or taking a course.
Why would you ride down the side? Can't steer?
Not here?

Boring until around 28 seconds. Then the one guy starts racing.
In order to be racing it would mean he is competing with someone.

So where is this?
What about gas stations?
He was, just happened to be the cyclist in this case.
Not sure you would be riding down that. probably more of an unmounted out of control tumble.
Great pics, OP. Looks like a blast!
