Last leg of the trip, 475 miles from Ely, Nevada to home. FYI if traveling on HWY 6 its almost 170 miles between gas stations from Ely to Tonopah in Nevada , high winds and a nice rainy/ snow mix coming over Sonora pass.

The bike ran with no issues and did great over the pass in the foul weather, This was really an epic adventure and I'm almost sad to be home. haha

Well done. Made all the sweeter because of the history of the bike. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

I haven't done a pass over the Sierra Nevadas for a couple years. This is giving me wanderlust.

If you ever want to meet in the middle let me know!

Biglangster, how many times have you had to use the "extra" fuel from your emergency bottle on this trip? :!:
