I make the ride down and do the Utah Loop every few years. It is a ride that restores your soul, your friendships, and an appreciation for scenery without trees.

Leave Provo to Arches, Moab, 4 corners, Goose neck, Monument Valley, Kayenta, North Rim, Zion, Bryce Canyon. This is the basic loop but there are lots of options, hey, wipe that damn smile off your face.

Utah has some of the best riding and scenery in the country, and if you tire of that, you are close to Idaho, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico for even more great riding.

Yup, Utah can take you breath away, Photo quality scenery around every turn. I entered at Cedar City, took 12 & 24 across and down the Moki Dugway. Pic is East of Cedar City

I would get the free Travel Guide.

http://www.visitutah.com/maps-travel...-travel-guide/

Also I would take the advance rider coarse as our mountain roads are a lot different than riding back there. You'll never regret the move for riding and sceinic experience. Also there is no problem getting something to drink beside what is thought fr. outside the iron curtain.

Thanks GMC, actually we have been all over the states on the twisties, went and rode the Dragon this year, actually did it in the rain! The kids on crotch rockets normally get put to shame by the old man on the bagger!

Spent a week in St George at a Mustang rally. Great area and the National Parks were fantastic...I could live there, but Tennessee is awful sweet too. Love the Mountians in east TN

Living and riding out here isn't to bad. They give you some great access on the freeways to the HOV lanes within Salt Lake and surrounding areas.

I love riding out here but it can get hot in the summer. Was riding down around Moab this summer and it was over 100. Talk about being annoying. Had to stop for water every 50 miles or so to keep up with it.
