Arizona backroads

Going the back way to Prescott. Awesome day. It was about 68 when I left the house. Just cool enough to gear up. Went from desert floor and Cactus to Ponderosas pines in about 15 minutes. Not a lot of traffic and the bike ran great. Ended up getting 43 mpg and it was up hill both ways.

The "back way to Prescott"? Up Yarnell Hill, through Wilhoite? I haven't been up that way in over a year.

That's the one Scott. Did it not work for you either?

Some good twisties (although the camera seems to have straightened out some of the corners LOL). The road was clear dry with no sand or rocks on it. Pretty tacky. Nice ride. Sorry it wouldn't work for ya Gene.

No, the link no workie. That's a nice ride, though. One of my favorites!

Must've done something wrong. Oh well. It was 15 minutes long, unedited raw footage and would've probably been boring to watch without tunes or anything.

You probably need to grant public permission.

I signed in to facebook and it still didn't work. Must have been removed.
