Rocky Mountain / When there's a line

« on: July 18, 2012, 01:59:20 am »

I'll be riding into Yellowstone from West Yellowstone next week. What's the general consensus when there's a line of cars at the entrance? Relax and sniff the exhaust? or casually ride toward the front and smile ala construction zone?  I'm holding an annual pass, so I don't need to pay them anything.

For those of you that like bibs, how do you do it? ---take a leak? Do you wear your jersey over the bib or under it? I found that even though i wear a full zip jersey, i needed to remove it in order to slip out of the shoulder straps and roll evrything down.

I will be near Yellowstone for a business meeting in late July and was considering taking a few days to tour thru Yellowstone. Is this a crazy idea considering the amount of tourist/RV traffic? Otherwise, any recommendations for a loop style tour?

If you fly British Air to Europe you may save on baggage fees, but you'll pay a hefty ($$$$) fuel surcharge fee. In the hundreds of dollars. Also, I've never been charged a baggage fee when checking my Bike Friday as long as I keep the total weight below 50lbs. --at least for domestic travel.

I'm with "hem"......Bike Friday makes a ton of sense for your plans
