Title: Need a good ride July 22-26
Post by: Rocket67 on June 25, 2015, 08:54:56 AM: I am taking vacation in July and half will be Vegas but the other half I want to ride. I don't want to stay in the same place twice (no camping) and was wondering what might be insteresting enough to ride to. I would like to do around 400-600 miles per day. It's going to be hot so the better the climate the more I will like it.

Colorado, lots of options to get high here, you will choose the mountains for sure. :bikerider:

Enjoy your vacation!! :thumbup:

No riding in Vegas, will be too busy losing my Cranberries. Riding when I get back but now maybe just an overnighter.

Post by: matap on July 07, 2015, 01:19:36 PM: I read they have cabins that overlook the canyon. I'm sure you would need to book those with time but you never know.

Post by: xcaliber on July 07, 2015, 04:07:09 PM: Been to Palo Duro years ago. Really neat place. They used to have a play in the canyon at night about the old west. Very cool. I have been wanting to take the bike up there. There was a neat biker type bar outside of Snyder with campgrounds called Rolling Thunder or something like that. The White Buffalo Bikefest is in Snyder on Aug21 22 23.

Post by: hipshot on July 10, 2015, 06:53:36 AM: Ride up through Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming, maybe into Montana. You'll see some awesome scenery and great motorcycle roads. View the Tetons from Togwotee Pass; you won't ever forget it. Hell, viewing the Tetons from anywhere is unforgettable!
