Day 9 Where did that car go?

June 21st. Headed out of Yellowstone this morning, stopping in Gardiner for breakfast. We took 89 North headed toward Glacier as an alternative to the interstate, but 89 is still 70 MPH which was not the speed that we went. We managed to avoid I-90 in Livingston (where 89 and I-90 become one for 8 miles) by finding a back road that reconnected with 89, and we actually saved some miles doing it, and it was a great riding road. Most of 89 was empty, and really straight. Cars would come racing up from behind every now and then, and stay behind us for a while and then we would look back and they would be gone. We would not even remember having seen a road, although there had to be one. At the very end of the ride there was tons of gusty wind again, scary shake and move the bike winds, but we made it to Great Falls and got a motel room for some good sleep.
