We'll call this one "Roadside Positivity"








You can see why Michael was impressed with the good naturedness of the North Dakotans. The only problem was with the mosquitos (first picture he entitled "hiding out from the skeeters")



North Dakota Highlights!








One of the big crops in North Dakota - Canola; look, the group is abiding by the rules of the road and riding single file!; lots of positivity in North Dakota - even in the road signs; and Michael in the geographical center of North America.


Scenes from North Dakota








The group goes to the movies...and stores the bikes with the video games! Sean, the leader of the pack; a lunch stop in the only shade around, and the forgotten Grange Hall (my favorite picture so far!)



More of eastern Montana and into North Dakota







The report from Michael is that there wasn't much going on in eastern Montana except for lots of folks who hate Californian's. He was happy to get to North Dakota.



Other side of Glacier and Eastern Montana







Pretty self explanatory. After Glacier, things get flat in eastern Montana...




OK, he made it to the Summit! The Continental Divide









Michael makes it to the Summit of the Continental Divide. The group shot is of "the fellas" that Michael was riding with through Montana and North Dakota.

Heading up to Logan Pass, Glacier National Park








An incredible series of shots heading up to Logan Pass - the top picture is the famous "Weeping Wall" - which, according to the Glacier website, is best seen in June and July. Obviously, Michael was there at the right time!
