13 hours 20 minutes later, we have arrived in Salt Lake City for the SBK racing at Miller Motorsports Park this weekend. I have to say that this is one of the longest road trips I’ve taken in some time, but the XC70 was a really comfortable and capable car for this journey.
Paul and I are here to enjoy the races as RareSportBikesForSale.com is now an official supporter of the Moto Forza Veloce Racing Aprilia team! Keep an eye on the RSBFS Facebook page for some live blogging and pictures from the pits.
Here are some snapshots from our long day on the road:
Decals applied the night before (new logo coming soon!)
Freaking cold over the pass!
A stop for lunch in the middle of nowhere
Lunch done right on the road
We were treated to beautiful vistas like this all day long
Lame self portrait in progress
Arrival at the hotel! If I was a little dumber I would’ve waited for 9:16 😉
A proper unwinding after a long drive: Pokerstars, Heineken, and deli plate
And ready for tomorrow’s action
The Moto Forza Veloce Racing team heads out early for qualifying tomorrow morning at 8:30 and we’re going to make a serious effort to be there — and hopefully see them positioned in the top 10 in a field of 45 (17/45 today).
Good night all!
