Great pics.  Several of us from this site did a very simular ride in the early spring......still snow on the ground over the passes.  It was a great ride, thow, as it looks like yours was. :2vrolijk_21:

Looks like a great ride and a great time! What did the temps warm up to during the day? How many miles did you cover? You may increase in number if you keep doing this ride. Enjoyed it, thanks and God Bless! :2vrolijk_21:

Nice pictures, were you guys wearing heated gear?

We learned from the previous year to invest in some heated gear. I just used a heated vest since I already had the heated seat and grips. The other guys had heated jackets and gloves. Most days would start at 25-30 degrees and warm up to maybe 45 degrees. Death Valley was the "hot" spot as it got up to around 55 degrees around noon. But as soon as you left the valley it got cold again.

Last year without heated gear it took me 4 days to thaw out when I got home.
