    The ride itself shouldn't be a big problem with an early start. I would recommend riding up Co-145, Co-141, Co-90 and Ut-46 and then US-191 into Moab, 205 miles. Then return on US-191 and US-491 back to Cortez, 115 miles. Total 320 miles. I would however advise choosing either Arches or Canyonlands and not try to do both. Both parks require three or more hours to enjoy the visit. US-191 and US-491 are both major highways and if the ride runs late it would not be a big deal running after dark.

    Just my opinion but I ridden the area for years.

    We are only going to lead the ride up. Everyone will have their choice as to which park to visit and how much time to spend.

    We are looking forward to seeing everyone. Looks like we are going to have quite a good size group.

    We will actually have 4 bikes there ourselves. My F6B, one of our Spyders, one of our friends on a Spyder and our Son from Denver with his FZ1.
    Teresa is actually flying in and out of Denver. She is looking forward to seeing everyone she talks to on the phone.
