2025 Eastbound Trip 1 - Day 30

June 28, 2025

It’s going to be the last day on the road and that’s sort of OK.  I really like traveling and riding but I’ll certainly being do more of it this season.

I woke up at 4:30, still running in a different time zone, and started the daily routine.  After breakfast a storm moved in and it rained for 30 minutes of so.  After it past I finished packing up and got ready for departure.

On the way out, I stopped for a few photos.





The first stop in Glendive where the car will take on a charge and with the weather, I’ve decided to just ride the slab the 270 miles home.  I got as far a Beach, ND when the sky looked threatening enough for me to pull over and put on my rain gear.  I almost had it all on when the rain started.

I hopped back on the freeway and rode to the Tesla Chargers at Glendive.  The rain had let up so we chatted a bit and then I took advantage of having cell service again and updated yesterday’s blog which I’d written offline last night.


It was back onto the freeway where I hit more rain.  I just set the cruise control to 77 MPH and relax, listing to whatever I’ve selected on the sound system.

The car was getting another charge in Miles City so I stopped there, topped up my gas and used the facilities.  


It started raining again so I loaded up and took off again.

There really isn’t more to say.  The ride into Billings was event-free.  I caught up with the Tesla about 25 miles out and followed her all the way to our driveway.  I got the bike unloaded while she worked on the car.  I took my clothes bag down to the laundry room and just dumped everything into the washer.  Then I took the bike and parked it across the street in my other garage.  I’ll deal with washing it later.


It was a 290 mile day.  My next post will be my usual wrap up and summary with some commentary about this trip, started on May 30, and was 5,217 miles.
