I took the day off from work to ride with a friend through central Arizona. 400 miles of great scenery and Spring weather.
Lots of wildflowers along the road sides and blanketing some hills. Highlight of the trip was riding through Salt River Canyon
twice. Here's a shot of the 2017 RS and my friend's 2018 GS.

This puts my �highlight� comment into better perspective - the section of US 60 through Salt River Canyon covering about 2,000 feet elevation change from top of the canyon to the river at the bottom.

Looks like a great road!

I am looking at your pictures and I envy you. I am looking outside with still 3 feet of snow to melt. Enjoy it !
