Stopping for lunch at the Mad Dog Cafe in Crawford, CO.
The Mad Dog Cafe is owned by Joe Cocker, yes, that Joe Cocker and is run
by his wife. His wife rides her own motorcycle and the cafe is
essentially an upscale biker hangout. If you are ever in the
area, I urge you to stop in for lunch. I was added to their
mailing list and get a sweet Christmas card every year. |

Waiting for the inevitable Colorado cattle crossing.... |

Roadside foul weather gear donning competition, prompted by the
