BlackRapid Photo-Moto Ride 2024 – Part 3 by Bry Cox

The BLACKRAPID Moto Ride for 2024 [Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3] from the Bry Cox blog.

The next morning we took a nice ride up to Aspen, Colorado to stop for lunch and walk around.

After a while we got back on our bikes and headed up a beautiful, long, winding road to Leadville, Colorado to stay the night. As we rode, we continually dodged rain storms.

Eventually as the storm caught up with us and we got drenched us as we entered Leadville.

In Leadville, we got hotels and dinner. The next morning we walked around the tiny Main Street taking photos, when we stopped and talked to this man with a very interesting face. We asked if we could photograph him, and Ron, Mike, and I all took a few quick images. As a portrait photographer, I am always interested in people and love doing street portraits.

I also love taking iPhone closeups of abstracts as we walk around. Here’s a series of some of my favorites.

From Leadville we continued on to Golden, Craig, Steamboat, and other towns in Colorado for a few more days, weaving our way back to Utah. We got drenched for the next few days, continually driving through the rain.

We try to take the longest, curviest roads on our ride. While coming through Utah, we went up and over Guardsman Pass which was stunning.

Eventually we said our goodbyes as we each made our ways back home to our four different states. Thanks guys for another successful motorcycle/photo adventure.

And until next time, America.
