    Bucket List Ride Destinations

    Docs tell me I won't make it to another summer so, I want to hit as many great riding destinations as I can in my last summer. Where are the "must see" riding spots?

    No, but Yellowstone and Yosemite are must sees for me. Thanks for the kind thoughts, but we all have to go and I'm not going without a fight. LOL.

    Sorry to hear about your illness.
    I hope this might give you some ideas.
    A friend of mine just posted this on Facebook.
    Any of these stops would be great it sounds like.

    Sorry to hear about this. My all-time favorite ride was through the White Mountains of New Hampshire and then up through Maine.

    Another vote for Glacier Nat'l Park...make sure you get there in VERY late June (or later) when the "Highway to the Sun" is open.
    A trip I'll NEVER forget.

    What about Nova Scotia, wait I got a better Idea. What about the Four Corners of North America. Besides hitting the parks in between. Hit Tiajuna, Ca to Seattle, Wa. hit the parks out west then travel to Key West then up to Nova Scotia. May god bless you with much longer life then the Docs.

    “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!” ― Hunter S. Thompson

    I would head west to the Grand Canyon and follow the map Doug posted. Up through Utah (amazing), Idaho, Wyoming, then slip over to South Dakota to Sturgis, the Black Hills, Mount Rushmore, Devil's Tower, then down through Colorado on the Million Dollar Highway and maybe down into New Mexico to Taos. I could go on. Or don't make a plan at all. Just pack your bike, stuff your pockets with cash and take off.

    Good luck my friend. If you come to Arizona let me know. I'll come guide you on a little tour if you like, if I can get off work. I'm off on weekends. Grand Canyon, Sedona, Jerome and Prescott are just a few cool places to visit.
