Arches National Park: Much like the trek from Mexican Hat to Moab, this place was one of the highlights for me. These formation are just incredible. I would trade 10 "grand" Canyons for Utah.
Enter Colorado....... It was ok......big mountains and passes......bla bla bla...... Maybe in winter with snow would make it more worth seeing, but then, i wouldn't be here on a bike.
The Royal Gorge Bridge: Something like 1000 feet high, worlds highest bridge or something. What stuck me odd here was the $15 just to see the bridge, which, once we were told that included being able to ride across the bridge, George was one happy camper. Me? I took a stroll across first, just to see how I would handle this thing. I wasn't doing so well, and the bridge you could feel moving beneath you. Well, I told myself that this is probably the only time in my life, that I'll be here at this bridge with my motorcycle, and I just needed to Man my ass up and roll across or I would forever regret it. So I did just that, I put all my gear on, told George to wait with the camera. There is a 10mph limit on this bridge, once I started on the bridge I pulled the throttle... Good thing there were no park police, cos I flew over that thing. And once you go over, you guessed it, you gotta come back across. I never looked over the edge.
