Leaving Fargo, we got on I-94 and headed west. We had dinner reservations in Medora, ND, and the delay for the nail in the tire had somewhat compromised our schedule. We pushed the Harleys pretty hard, but were battling a severe headwind, often times gusts as high as 45 mph. We had over 300 miles to cover. We pressed on, keeping our stops brief, not wasting time. The ride across North Dakota was actually scenic, more than I had anticipated. Our only issue was dealing with the winds. But we made it, even had a small amount of time to spare. Medora is a quaint little historic town in one of the most scenic spots in North Dakota. The area is referred to as the Badlands of North Dakota and is somewhat similar to the South Dakota Badlands, but on a somewhat smaller scale. Perhaps more scenic however.
Time for dinner, you definitely have our patterns down by now. They feature a unique means of cooking steaks there. As in the picture above the steaks are put on pitchforks and are then cooked in cauldrons of fondue. A very unique and tasteful experience. While dining on the steaks we were afford an extraordinary view of the area from our location on a high hill and were serenaded musically as we ate.
With our appetites satisfied, a brief look around the area and town, we settled in for some sleep and much needed rest from a very good but eventful day.
