Bungie
FrostBack #2 - IBA # 44620
You've know doubt read that the 3 crazy canucks (I'm certain their are more) are going to ride a Trifecta of FJR Events.
Were pulling out of Sudbury on Sept 3rd and heading to points west with a destination of the WCR Meet with Barb and the gang on Vancouver Island.
Leg 1 - Hitting the sights to WCR
Were pulling out of WCR and heading to SW-FOG in Taos New Mexico to ride with guys who suffer from chonic brain bake.
Leg 2 - This is where we get stupid.
From SW-FOG were heading into the sun to NAFO to slay all manner of reptiles (Dragons and Snakes and Hellbenders oh my!)
Leg 3 - The long flat sun baked boring bit
So the point of this post is one of route planning.
The first leg is pretty much set in stone at this point, with highlights being the Blackhills (Rushmore), Devils Tower, Chief Joseph Hwy, Beartooth Pass, Hwy to the Sun in Glacier Ntl Parc, Icefields Parkway between Banff and Jasper
The second leg we've got to make some tracks with the most direct route possible. Had their been more time I would have liked to hit Northern Cali, but its just not in the cards. So, were leaving Victoria BC on Monday and riding the North Cascades, Hells Canyon, Rte 21 in Idaho, Rte 12 out of Torrey Utah to Zion Ntl Park, the south to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, then finally, onto to Taos.
The third leg, I really haven't even considered at all and I'm wide open to suggestion. We've got a week to kill for a 2 or 3 day ride so I'm open to suggestions on sights to see and routes to take. Hell we might even stay an extra day in Taos to rest up.
So lets here your suggestion Are we passing by some great roads/sights that aren't far off our general path? This route is only a guide and is likely to change substantially based on variables such as weather, fatigue or comet strikes.
We may not be stupid first, but we're throwing our hats into the ring!
