A couple of classics. Nice!bestfightstory":2saf0vcb said:hawksfansinceday1":2saf0vcb said:What do you ride?bestfightstory":2saf0vcb said:.......I actually rode a motorcycle from Minneapolis to Vegas in the first few days of August and left it at my uncle's place in Boulder City so I would have a motorcycle there to explore the desert states during the winter.....
I have an '06 Road King and have ridden across the USA and back, ocean to ocean as well as most the National Parks in the west, the attractions in South Dakota, Vegas several times, Tahoe, Beartooth Pass, etc. Have you ridden the Million Dollar Hwy when you were in Colorado (Ouray to Durango, US 550)? "Spectacular" doesn't do it justice.
You travel solo? (I do)
16 months ago I had zero bikes and hadn't been on one for 22 years. Now I own 3. A 1973 Granada Red BMW R75/5 Toaster Tank with 45,000 miles. A 1973 Curry BMW R75/5 Toaster Tank with 12,000 actual miles! And a 1994 BMW R1100RS. And I am likely not done. Considering a ride from Vasteras Sweden to the Cape of Good Hope with my closest friend from high school, who is a recently retired Marines Colonel.

I rode this about 5-6 years ago and included Zion and Bryce Canyon stops along the way. Grand Staircase is very cool. Hwy 12 is truly amazing, top 10 of the roads I've ridden for sure. nanomoz's advice is top drawer here BFS.nanomoz":2xe2lm4b said:..........On a bike, I think highway 14 to 89 to 12 through cedar mountain/cedar breaks then down through red canyon and down into the grand staircase--with a sojourn on hell's backbone (N. America's most elevated alpine forest)--would be about the best ride ever...........
