I really like this Holiday Inn Express. We sat out on the balcony overlooking the river and watched the kayakers and rafters float by. The crows and I'm guessing magpies? we're chasing each other. It's cool but is going to be crazy hot by the time we roll into Grand Junction.

I got a workout in last night and am making an effort to fold in mobility work in the mornings. That muscle next to my left shoulder blade continues to be a real problem. I'm making the effort to take it all more seriously.

Sitting with Bruce outside an the balcony at night listening to the river

Talked to some old Harley guys, one who had his bike set up with Ohlins.

we arrived. I actually did a 30 minute workout in the exercise room.

Beautiful rugged arid countryside. 550 here is a big fast road but with much fewer tractor trailers than the super slab. It's quite warm. My shoulder/back is bugging me quite a bit

Longish stop at the gas pump which is covered from the sun. Beautiful albeit warm weather today.
