Day 2 - John Day to Hailey
Interesting change from yesterday. Another rider and I teamed up and that made riding a lot more enjoyable. The twisties that we encountered today were generally a little higher speed which suits the Blur and my riding style better.
Yesterday the twisties were often so tight that I couldn't carry much speed in the corners. The Blur is extremely nimble but it doesn't make enough torque in stock trim to muscle out of a turn. So the trick is to carry as much cornering speed as possible.
Tomorrow is the big climb over the Continentl Divide. 9659 feet. Yikes! Wish us luck.
