Cody, Wyoming, Cowboy Village A great place to stay, new individual log cabins, clean & comfy, friendly & helpful staff with Internet Access, super continental breakfasts. One stop among many on a 5000 mile trip out West my hubby & I took last July, 2008. Hubby's trusty 2007 Honda Gold Wing (touring bike) made for a trouble-free & comfy trip. Saved a lot of money on fuel. Roughly 40 mpg. 35 mpg at the lowest (probably going uphill up a mountain or into a headwind) and 53 mpg at the highest (maybe downhill). We burned approx. 120 gal. of fuel at an approx. cost $500 for a 17 day road trip from Michigan up to Grand Forks, North Dakota and then rode South and West thru the plains & mountains, sightseeing in and around Yellowstone National Park, thru the Rocky Mountains to our final destination, Denver, Colorado and the trip back home to Michigan.

Lucky you! Sounds like it was lots of fun! I used to have a motorcycle, not anymore but I still have a license. Wyoming is a beautiful state!

You are really a gutsy adventurous lady. Were you sore from all the bike riding? I do so admire you. I could never in a million years have done this. I've been across the U.S. but not on a motorcycle. Wow is all I can say. Woo Hoo to you. Way to go. The bike is beautiful. Do you still have it?
