.
thanks everyone...!
.
the route did not take that long to plan actually..i determined which parks and monuments i wanted to see and what made sense as far as 'loops' went...i realised that the beginning days and ending days would be 'more miles' than the 'in betwixt' days...
.
the gixxers had no problems whatsoever.. i was diligent in cleaning and lubing the chains as well as checking air pressure. the BF has created a monster in that regard..:laughing
.
i have taken the redcoat ( gixxer ) to canada and have 12000 + on it from that trip as well as others, so find it comfortable for me...my friend had a bit of difficulty in the beginning as she was not used to it, but she became acclimated as we carried on...
.
as soon as i figure out how to do the map thing, i shall post the route up..we did stray from the intended route twice...but all in all, the roads were pretty awesome...especially the twisty bits and SR 12..
.
:)
 
GREAT shots (and words)!

A friend was over Friday talking about doing a similar trip this year, but he was thinking motorhome. This thread has me doing some serious re-thinking!

Thanks!
 
Those are some absolutely breathtaking photos, thanks for posting them!

Glad your trip went so well :)
 
Great pics, it looks like you gals had a great time! So kind of you not to call your BF a wimp for pussing out on you. We all know he couldn't hack it!!!
 
Looks like a great trip. Thanks for posting the photos!
 
Wow!... hard core gixxergirl! Are you going to become "BMW Boxer Girl" after that iron butt ride? That is a long ways to go on Gixxers.

I've wanted to do the same type of ride, only thing holding me back is the thought of all the trouble I'd get into speeding everywhere. I only saw one ticket you got into......... good job!
 
You got my vote for best photo journalist on Barf. Great photos.

It makes me long for another long trip. :thumbup
 
Nice photos and ride.
