Guys, lets post your favorite rides and have links or pics of the map of your rides from your neck of the woods. Also I think it will be good to include favorite spots of where to stop for grub and/or watering holes as well as where to fuel up and the miles. Admins, I think it may be a good idea to make this a stiky

If I live till then, The next one!

That's what I was going to say!!

Seems everytime I ride it's the last one that is my favorite and the next one will be even better.  I look at it from the point that the last one is the favorite, because I'm here to tell about it.

     In early March, I rode to Guaymas, Sonora.  Put 2500 miles on the X.  This has to be the most fun ride I have done.  I had never been to Mexico.  It was great interacting with another culture.  The country was beautiful, the people were great, and the food was fantastic.  Every day was a new adventure.  I saw rain, snow, and 90 degree weather.  This was all in the space of a week.  I rode thru little villages, and Hermosillo.  Hermosillo is the capitol of Sonora.  It is about a million people.  Houston and Dallas are much larger, but you could not believe the traffic there!  Big bikes draw a crowd in Mexico.  Somewhere in Sonora are dozens of pictures of my X with little kids sitting on it.  Pretty girls all want a ride. (Talk about a hoot for an old man from the Panhandle.)  I was polite to the people and they were polite to me.  I rode to the "Sea of Cortez".  Desert right down to the ocean.  The Sea of Cortez is what started this odyssey.  It was a year and a half in the making and it was worth every minute.  You do not go to Mexico without a lot of preparation.  I was prepared, but learned a lot of do's and don'ts on the trip.  I will be back.    Bob

i'm with you guy's the next ride is my favorite but that ride from arkansas to oklahoma over the talamina parkway has got to rank up there as one of my favorites ;)but doesn't compare with riding with all my x buddies.

I would love to see some of the sights you guys saw recently.  I can only imagine how breath taking they were.  However, on RD's R.A.T ride there were several bridges on the Gulf that provided fantastic views.  Like I mean these bridges were high suckers.  I want to go over these suckers again and besides I want some more of MawMaw's gumbo.    We also rode two ferrys - that was great fun!  Live this one alone, guys & gals.

Out of respect for Jerry....I will leave "this" one alone

If you haven't riden Creek Road out of Dripping Springs, you're missing something.  It's short, about 9 miles, but runs right next to Onion Creek.  Like so many, I can't say what my ultimate favorite is, cause I ain't rode all the roads to ride...

I really can't contribute very much, but if you can ever get out to the Carlolina's there a road called The Saluda Grade it wind's up the Appalachian Mountain.  Then get on The Blue Ridge Parkway well both ways are Beautiful Rides.  I really enjoyed this thread too!!!

Alright Bob - You are in charge of getting the details together for a Mexico ride.  Sounds like a great ride that probably a lot of us would love to do.  Just don't know about things like Insurance, Route, Payoffs to officials, etc.  You are in charge Bob.  I wanna go.
