RAA WEST 2020

[1olbull]

That looks like some good d@mn riding. Much like I had planned for Theresa and I for our Utah ride this year anyway.
I'll have to look again, but a 3+hour ride each way to the Grand Canyon makes for a looong day if you plan to spend some time there. Unless of course the roads are worth it.

Just an advisement, there is entrance fees to all the Nat'l Parks. Something like $15/bike. You can get a Nat'l Park pass for $80ish and 2 bikes can get in at each park with it. Both riders must sign the pass though.

So, count on Theresa and I being there.

Anthony,
The ride is open road, nothing spectacular and would take less than 6 hours at a decent pace.
Us "seniors" have, get into National Parks free cards. You working richies with boat loads of motors cab easily absorb the pittance!

A pig is BBQ if you pour a little sauce on it, and we can do a young ton of BBQ, what kind do you like?
I was just trying to work with what was available, cedar and a hole in the ground. Salmon and a pig pickin’ were the first things that came to mind.
When the time comes we are probly going to have to plan meals according to what’s available to cook on, can’t carry a lot on the bike. We could make the trip with a hand crank spit and a big skillet over a campfire if we need to, sure would be nice to have a chase vehicle to carry a few luxury items though huh.

Yea, and I may have had more fun. My basics were a hammock, tarp, bottle of Jack and a pound of eckrich sausage on a weenie stick.

Maybe we could pick you up in OK and load what ever you want in the trailer? You and I need a lot more talk amigo.

Tis just for the one Friday night before we head out on Sat 9/12/20.
I'm sure I can simply buy something in town that will work for us.
However, if we have mobile gear hauled by The Doc's (Mel) entourage, we could put John @Mad Dog to work every night!!!
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm ???

We have a Nat'l Park card, it expires in July though. Will need to get another, but no issue there for me. We'll use it for Big Bend and Carlsbad Caverns too.

If Mad Dogs sister is unable to make the trip we will be looking for a new rig driver. It is a mega cab Cummins 250 Ram truck pulling a 20 ft. tandem axle trailer.
