Mountain/Valley View Across the Gunnison River

of 382

Notice the ominous looking storm clouds! I don't really have a good shot that shows the full effect. It looked sort of like in Ghostbusters when Gozer was coming to kill everybody. We used put the full Sport capabiltiy of our Sport Touring machines into effect to blast around the mountains on 92 so as to not get wet. It was an amazing experience. Blasting down the road, when heading away from the storm, the bright daylight made us feel at peace and tranquil, wondering why we were pushing so hard. A quick glance in the mirror would give a hint, and rounding the next bend would put us riding directly back at the storm. The positive/negative swing in the feelings of peace an ominous disaster by rain, lightning, and hail was ... exhilerating!
