I love Lolo Pass.  I've ridden it many times.  One very memorable.  But, the sign used say, 77 miles not 99?

No, I am not cool.  Yes, it really is the journey.

Welcome to the motley group!  That is a really fine bit of biking pavement.  I've not ridden it since all the controversy about the oversize trucks permits.  I've head the speed limit was reduced and strictly enforced now.

Yes, the Idaho side is 55 mph. The oversize issue kind of faded away.

Welcome, I was on that road last summer but in my Oldsmobile.  You can only imagine how much I wished to be on 2 wheels.

Welcome! Where I'm from we only have signs that read: "straight roads for the next 99 miles"  :riding:
