This can be a nice ride... but likely not in November (Alpine is over 8,000' elevation). The section between Alpine and Clifton (about 90 miles) is along old Route 666 (Devil's Highway). It was renamed US 191 back in '93.

That is a GREAT ride, but you need to do it at the right time of year. You go over 3 high elevation passes. 7200', 8400' and 9400' near Hannagan Meadow. Too early or too late in the year and you'll hit snow. My buddies and I have made the Coronado Trail an annual event.

Sedona is always beautiful to me. Riding through the red-rock canyons would be a 'must-do' IMO. Jerome is a cool little town. There's several along that route. There's a nice biker bar in downtown Jerome. You can't miss it if driving through.

A ride out to Monument Valley and a tour given by a Navaho guide! What a magical place!
