It’s comforting to know as each day passes, I am but one day closer to death, and one day closer to the day people can no longer ask me computer questions.

June 28th.

Cyrus in Trip West!

Ok so everyone has been emailing me yelling at me about not posting. Well we haven’t had internet access for a night or two so I’m a little behind. Also the internet access we have had has been pretty bad! Which makes uploading the pictures take forever because someone had to buy an 8.1MP camera. So anyhow we are currently in North Dakota getting ready to head out to Duluth Minnesota (yea that’s probably spelled wrong). We arrived in Bismark fairly late last night and it was freezing well at 85/90mph anyhow. So we arrived and meet my buddy Kirby at the Tree City Bar which is sort of funny as there isn’t too many tree’s around here. It was sort of a neat place, they still let everyone smoke in the bars out here which is fine and all but seems a bit weird after a few months of the none smoking NAZI ohio bars (not that I’m complaining it’s nice playing drums and being able to breath). What was really weird was everyone sitting around poker tables, playing poker, black jack, etc. in the bar. It was almost like one of those scenes out of The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!

Glacier National Park.

Cyrus in Trip West!

So we left Yellowstone, then stayed the night in Livingston Montana. This was probably one of my favorite towns we stayed in. The Best Western there was great and reasonable, they even offered a Harley discount which the whole chain is supposedly going to be doing I guess? Oh they also had a cleaning station for our bikes but we didn’t use it. After unpacking all of our gear from the bikes, we headed downtown to find some chow. We found this place called The Stockman which had Moose Droul on tap. If you’ve never had Moose Droul I give it a thumbs up, so drink some! If you can find it. Cause as Jason says “That’s why i like you Cy you never drink cheap beer! (hiccup!)” They also make a killer steak! So if you ever find yourself in Livingston Montana and the Stockman’s open check it out! and arrived in Glacier Monday night. WOW what a cold windy ride this was! Nothing quite like spending a few hours pushing like you are trying to turn right just so you would go straight! It was pretty awesome let me tell you! You could turn right just be letting the bike stand up straight. Not to mention I made many a right turn while actually turning left! The worst was when a tractor trailer would go by the opposite direction and block the wind for a split second, talk about some turbulance

We arrived in Glacier at a semi decent time found a decent place to stay and had some great mexican food. Got some sleep then headed out to the park, and what a great park it is! The water is incredibly blue and the mountains are huge!! The road to the sun is awesome and was well worth the trip even though we had to go way out of the way to ride it as there was a avalanche in the middle. Anyhow I’ll try and catchup with the pics. I have several pics left I’ve been meaning to post of Yellowstone and of some of the other places but just have not had enough time to get it all up!!

pics are here by the way: http://www.planetcy.com/pics

Sundown Inn Sheridan Wyoming

Cyrus in Trip West!

So we get there check in pay for the room.  We get unloaded, change and take a swim. After the swim we go in get changed I try to check my email the hotel’s internet isn’t working. Their router is handing out a bogus DNS server address. So being the nice guy I am I tell the owner what’s up with his internet access. I even help the dude call it in to his internet company, infact I left the message to the tech support people, not that it’s a big deal but still, I’m on vacation right and I’m having to help solve computer problems. Well obviously they fixed it because it’s working now, that’s how I’m posting this. Anyhow back to the point, this is one of those fine little joints probably built in the 50′s, but hey it was cheap! One of those places where they give you a parking spot in front of your roon labeled with a number which corresponds with your room. You know one of those straight out of the murder movie motels. Well we go to dinner on the motorcycles, we get back and the owner’s son’s corvette is in our spot. The owner’s son’s daughter informs us we have to park our motorcycles out in front of the building by the street because the son isn’t there and they can’t move the car. Some bullshit about the son hitting a deer on the expressway and having to go back to the place and find a part. Yea well whatever after seeing what a deer can do to a VW that must have been the smallest deer on the planet cause there wasn’t even a scratch on the car I could see. Anyhow I don’t know about you guys but I have a tough time parking my $25,000 Harley out by the street in some nieghborHOOD I know nothing about, especially when I paid for a parking spot and a room for the night! Maybe I just expect what I pay for, maybe that’s just asking too much I don’t know! Maybe I’m just to expecting to much you know expecting what I pay for or what was agreed too! Personally I think it’s complete bullshit! Anyhow I’m thinking you know every spot is numbered, I paid my money for a room for the night, I would expect to park in my spot infront of my room, right? Well that’s way wrong. So we tell the daughter umm no we are not parking out front, we want to park in the spot we paid for. Well she is on the phone the whole time talking to whoever, so we look at her and she says again to park out fron. I’m not parking out front where else can we park I asked? Welp she stomps inside and comes out with the old man who starts asking why we are yelling at his daughter?? WHAT? I neer once raised my voice. So he starts yelling at us about calling the policeand telling use to leave and calling us a few other names. Well I’m thinking I need to send him a bill for my consulting fee for callin in his broken router! Well as the arguement continues wow, who shows up but the owners son, oh look he was upstairs in the hous the whole time! What a fucking joke this is. So muhammed starts yelling at me telling me he is crediting my credit card and that I have to leave. I said, but Mr. Macbar I paid cash. No you did not he insisted, you paid with credit card (in broken english) Well I must admit I did reserve the room with a credit card but I paid cash for the shitty room when we arrived. Well as everything progressed I decided it was too late to go look for another room and it would be better to just suck it up. Well the son says you can guys can park in number 12 it’s not rented. I’m thinking well why didn’t you park in number 12 then genius? So we parked in number 12 and called it a night.

      Well the bitch of it though I’m still here and I’m sitting here with my bike outside worried Acmad and his  family are outside just waiting to screw it up or kick it over or whatever! So this is wonderful!! What a bunch of crap, well if my bike is screwed up in the morning I might not be out of Sheridan Wyoming anytime soon! On the other hand if everthing goes well I’ll be on my way to yellowstone in the morning WEEEE!
