We left Edwards, CO and drove down I-70 to Rifle, CO. From Rifle we turned north to Meeker, CO. While gassing up in Meeker, Rob received a phone call from Nick. Nick and Jeff were a day ahead of the schedule and would be in Pocatello, ID a day before Dave and Rob. Dave and Rob headed over to Vernal, UT via Rangely, CO.
We have a route change
. We stopped in Vernal to have lunch and get Dave a headlight bulb. Dave and Rob decided to push on to Heber City, UT cutting two hours off of our ride on Friday to catch up with Nick and Jeff.
The wind was horrendous from Meeker to Heber City. There was several road construction areas that shutdown the highway to one-way at a time. But the Yamaha gods were with us and each delay was less than 5 minutes and we were moving well.
While we were waiting to check in to the hotel a nice school board member elect started chatting with Dave. Nick may have competition this year for "Social Director." We walked across the parking lot to have dinner at a steak house. When we entered there were only one other table, which worried Dave and Rob. The food was good so we lucked out.
