AZ...South Rim, Grand Canyon

Post  KTM265 on Wed Nov 04, 2009 8:56 pm

Rode roughly 350 miles over 3 days...I could talk all about it but I figure a pictures worth a 1,000 words. I'll post the pictures and answer any questions...had a blast.

Yes that is the chase bus. It hauls all our gear, extra parts, food, fuel...etc...meets up with us for lunch. We pull out the grill and chow down. BTW...On the front of the bus is painted..."It's an RV Clark".

Don't know anything about that one. This is set up by a friend of mine. He does this ride a couple of times a year and we kick him a few bills and he sets up all the support, food, lodging for us plus is our guide.

I'm always looking for new places to ride if anyone would like to host a few guys from out of town...We can set up the same thing, we'll pay for the food and lodgeing, you set up the trip around your home area...
