Three road trips, three vehicles. I finally replaced the 4Runner that was destroyed in the Bentonville tornado, and I love the new 2024 TRD Pro. I got it all packed and ready to go on the big event this year; spending more than four weeks on the road riding the bike all around the USA.
After a quick last minute wheel replacement, I hit the road and drove Dennis, stopped in Breckenridge for the night, and headed up to Lander, Wyoming to drop him off at the NOLS headquarters for a three week backpacking trip. He’s sure to have an amazing experience!
I rode a quick loop in Lander on the local Bus Loop trails. It’s all I had time for. The slickrock was fun and quick, but I left the camera back in the hotel room, so I let this ride live on in my memories and not on the internet.
The next stop was in Spearfish, South Dakota. Well, I spent the night in the beautiful town of Spearfish, but I rode in Rapid City at the Hansen Larsen trails. This park is located in town and is easily accessed by the locals. It was a convenient stop on the trip and it allowed me to enjoy some of the fun and rocky terrain that the South Dakota trails have to offer.
