So it turns out I need to make a trip out to California for a few days and thought, heck why not tow the trailer with a couple of bikes in it and take a week or more to wonder back to Texas. I am taking both the Africa Twin and the Husky along with the my better half. The AT will be more for two up dual sport adventuring.
To that end I am starting to think about must see places to see and ride on the way back. I just bumped into a youtube video of some guys dual sport riding from the Mt Trumbull Schoolhouse (Arizona) to the Grand Canyon that looked like a great way to start this trip.

I am looking for any other suggestions, recomendations or out right must see and do advice.
The broad brush strokes are to come up from Vegas area and head into Utah then into Colorodo. Looks like heading towards Grand Staircase - Escalante, Glenn Canyon, Canyonlands National Park, into the San Juan National Forest to Durango. From there we will kick for home.
Note: This will be in my nice comfy Duramax with the enclosed trailer full of bikes, clothes and gear. We will be staying in hotels the entire trip, not a camping trip.
Look forward to the deluge of input, any GPS files are welcomed too. In the past I have found once you start a trip there is very little time to play with GPS files, so I want to try and get this together asap.
Oh yea, it looks like I may be heading out to CA as soon as this weekend ...
Thanks, Mike
