Sunday - a day of rest. After a great brunch at the Eclectic Cafe we took a short ride from Moab out along Route 128 to Castle Valley. An incredibly scenic route along the Colorado River with the red canyons on either side. A motorcyclists dream. Back into Moab and an hour or two outside the closed public library stealing the wifi before heading off to the 3-step hideaway http://www.3stephideaway.com/. A place Rob had discovered 45 miles south west of Moab past LaSal. A wonderfully remote and self-sufficient place full of bikers and adventurers run by Scott And Julie nestled in the Lisbon Valley. Had fun navigating the K1300 up the dirt track to the hideaway - it was wet and slippery and I had to walk the bike along. Still feeling a bit unsure after the spill a couple of days before. Fortunately it was only a few hundred yards to Scott’s warm welcome and a soon to be had IPA from their well stocked fridge. No riding tomorrow which is why the weather forecast is improving.

Thelma and Louise
When Judy and I drove across country in 2003 we stopped in Moab and announced we were Thelma and Louise. The person in the tourist information place informed us that Moab had been the location for many of the scenes in the film.
