May 6, 2016 -- Idaho City Rides

We have come to Idaho City for our favorite time of year, Spring riding. Unfortunately we will have to leave early this year, but that shouldn't stop us from having a great time while we are here!

The first ride was a street ride with Wayne. So we got the new bikes ready. My new ride "Singer" is above.

 We set out from Idaho City on Highway 21, over the 2 passes and down to Lowman, where we headed west to Crouch for lunch.
After a great lunch at Wild Bill's, we went through Banks and headed south through Horseshoe Bend to Boise. From there we looped around to Highway 21 and back up to Idaho City.


The next day we decided to hit the dirt. JD Took us for a wonderful ride in the mountains east of Idaho City.

 We went up and over Rabbit Summit and down to the North Fork of the Boise River. Here is Wayne checking out my Suzuki.  I haven't taken her out since I got "Singer".
 We followed JD over the Barber Flat Bridge, up and over the hill to the Middle Fork. We were surprised at the fact that the road has already been cleared enough to get through!
 Once we went down the Middle Fork, we crossed the river at Long Gulch. The hills are covered with yellow flowers

 There goes Wayne!

 One of our favorite lunch stops. Hamburgers and good friends!

 Rosie is the official greeter!

 We took Black's Creek Road back, and crossed the South Fork of the Boise River.

 Go Wayne Go!!

This was our last look at the river until we got back on Highway 21 headed back up to Boise. What a wonderful day of riding with JD and Wayne!  Thanks guys!
