Took a ride on my new to me drz400s to the grand canyon west rim (where the skywalk is) Just went to the parking lot & in the store. It's expesive to do any thing else there!

A senic turnout before the unpaved section of road ( had my lunch here)

The little doctor Z got over 70 mpg, so all in all a great first excursion!

Very nice Ride Report and Photographs, Mark. Next time you make this run, give me a week's shout. I'll ride this with you on my BMW F650GS Twin. Beautiful Scenery!

See, Duke knows the difference between the smell of meat from the market and meat from the canyon road side... ;) If he's anything like my three mutts he can even smell the difference between shaved deli meats and thick cut stuff... ;)

Love the pics, love the bike - thanks for sharing. :D
