2022 Motorcycle Adventures - Pass Bagger

Today, I decided that it hadn't snowed for a few days, and it was time for me to go for a ride on the Africa Twin.

I rode down US Hwy 285 to Kenosha Pass(Elevation 10,000 ft), then down into Fairplay, north on Colorado State Hwy 9 to Hoosier Pass (Elevation 11,542 ft), then north into Breckenridge, and then up over Loveland Pass (Elevation 11,991 ft). Loveland Pass was so cold I didn't even stop for a photo. At some point on the ride, I stopped and changed gloves because my hands were so cold. I swapped my leather gloves for some ski gloves I found in the road the last time I summited Loveland Pass. At the summit of Loveland Pass, the digital thermometer on the bike indicated it was 37F. That's just too cold to be out riding in. It looks like today I rode for roughly 150 miles in approximately 3.5 hours.

The last time I summited Loveland Pass on the Africa Twin was 3 weeks ago on March 3rd, 2022, before we got pasted in snow for the last two weeks.

  • I did notice that the clock on the Africa Twin is wrong because I need to make it spring forward.

    How to set the Clock (Time) on the Africa Twin

  • Hold the down SEL and SET button at the same time until the hour flashes
  • Once the hour is flashing you can then adjust hours, up or down, via the SEL switch
  • To move across to minutes click the SET button.
  • Once the minutes are flashing you can then adjust minutes, up or down, via the SEL switch.
  • When the time is correct you can hit the SET

  • Done!
