September 9th ride/ Black Butte, Montana

On Sept 9th, 2011, we had people both from UVA and ER clubs and we put around 85 miles on our machines, some went a little farther. We met at 9:00 at the Valley View gas station in Island Park.  Than we went  and unloaded our machines.  Beautiful country , we also found a side hill with fossils, and some

of use. walked through a creek instead of jumping across. The ride seemed to be enjoyed by all.
