Sounds like it was a great trip. Great writeup Jared and some great pictures. Thanks for letting me take the journey with you. You did the actual journey and I took the journey in my mind. Thanks.

Great write up.
I have ridden alot of the roads you were on and they are great rides.The DRagon "rocks". I bought my Nomad from my Father while he was in Kansas working. I flew out there and rode it home. I remember making 1 turn out of the RV park he was staying in and the next turn I made was to leave the state.
I hope to get a chance to ride to Moab this summer,maybe I'll see you there.

That's great to see Jared.

I particularly like your site's "main-picture" at the top. That's a great photo. ;)

Very nice write-up. I was wondering how you were going to describe riding through Kansas and very eastern Colorado. In Kansas, if you have cruise control and can balance while you sleep, you can get in a good nap for most of the state.................
