Good days riding from Colter bay to Lima covering some of wyoming Idaho and into Montana Great forestry and plains riding that sometimes reminded me of molesworth and rainbow rds ,I must say that in general gravel and dirt rds are generally in poor condition with ruts , potholes and lots of protruding rocks which require a lot of concentration and helps keep you alert ,Had to wait for a digger to fill in the end of a bridge for me to continue
Followed a disused rail line (track removed) which followed a very deep ravine and a very narrow track in one place the track had in many places a narrow gate which only allowed cycles, motorcycles and quads into it , great!
The small town of Lima is a scene I have seen many times in traveling in he USA and it’s sad to see ,it’s run down with lots of buildings in a run down state of repair with vehicles and rusty machinery everywhere the railway tracks are still there but no train has come for years I had a drink in the hotel how it’s still standing I don’t know! and had a chat to some of the locals They have a lovely large high school that use to have a roll over over 500 now it’s less than 100 .I guess what I’m trying to say that to some this country is not in a good place for a lot of people, there words not mine .
