Touché, Tim! Now this is a photo I will keep (not just because of the two handsome dudes in the photo).
I stopped for lunch at the lodge (which has the only gas pump between Lolo and Kooksia, as I recall) near the top of the pass and otherwise never stopped, so I don't have a photo of this sign!

Actually Dan, the sign at either end of "Lolo Pass" (Hwy 12) in Idaho reads: "WINDING ROAD NEXT 99 MILES"… (see attached photo :- )

Steve, when is Annette going to tell you that it is safe for you to come home? By the way, I have a small item, which you prize highly, that you left behind at our home on Vashon Island. I can return it to you at the July 7th meeting.
Two Idaho roads that I highly recommend from when I rode the Sprint RS up to Seattle/Vashon Island two years ago:
· US 93 from Challis to Lolo, just sought of Missoula; and
· US 12, from Lolo to Kooksia (and then on to Lewiston).
I'm sure some of you—perhaps Jay, Tim, Norm, Bonneville Bob, Sean and Sara?--have ridden these highways as well.
But I remember seeing a sign on US 12 that said, "Curves, Next 99 Miles." Whoopee!

If you get the chance to ride to Idaho you should definitely do it! Not only is the scenery stunning with winding roads, the state has some very cool aspects that you might not be aware of.
Beer in the grocery stores isn't unique to Idaho but growler refilling and tasting samples? Hell yeah! How about build-your-own six-packs with over 100 different choices from small to medium sized breweries from across the country! Sweet!
As I was having lunch in McCall yesterday some other exotic European motorcycle pulled in and parked next to me. Despite the supposed "lack" of Moto Guzzi dealerships they still outnumber those German bikes two to one. Now that's class! 😎
Having a great time! See you all later!
Steve
