Check the weather reports before heading into that leg to Steamboat Springs. The Rocky Mountains still get some nasty snows this time of year, but the forecast for the next 5 days or so is warm and clear.

Example: Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mtn Natl Park isn't even scheduled to be open until May 25th

In some ways Neal you ride for all of us. Try not to let us down Buddy.

Note to myself: it's not the Lyrids, it's Neal.

If you are into caves, the Rapid City area gives you the chance to go in to both limestone and crystal caves (on opposite sides of the mountain)

And if spleothems are an interest, in one of the limestone caves there is a helicite which is a rarity in the US.

That's one way to be seen.

Badlands National Monument. Proving once again that we Americans will memorialize just about anything!

The Badlands are cool. You turn off the freeway, go a half a mile and the scenery is as if you left earth and are on the moon.

Hey Neal, if you have a stop in or around KC let me know! However, if you're driving through I understand that too!
