We went to the BMWMOA getaway in Cedar City, this was our second year in a row to attend this event.
Here is the route we took. The first two days we stayed in Page, AZ. Then on to Cedar City, UT. for two days during the Getaway
We left Wednesday morning, beginning mileage
North bound out of Vegas on I-15
Riding through the Virgin River Gorge, always a good twisty ride, although the highway is not in the best of shape and has a lot of traffic
Almost to Utah
We had a gift card - thanks to my sister, Susan - for a Crackerbarrel restaurant, so this was our first stop, rocking chairs, breakfast & morning coffee in St. George, UT.
Headed east on Hwy 9
Before we arrived at the Zion west entrance, we passed a helicopter with search & rescue doing some training on lifting out injured or stranded hikers...I don't think I'd want to be the person on the end of that line
Riding through Zion National Park
Spectacular scenery
We stopped at the east entrance to get the required photo
The same entrance - 16 years ago, when I took my future bride (Donna) on her first ride, we and the bike have changed just a little since then...1995 - using (gasp) film in my Nikon FE 2, hot leather jackets, and old full face Bell & Arai helmets
On Hwy 9, east bound
We drove through a long single lane tunnel
Another smaller tunnel
The riding and scenery was just perfect
