Aight, heres my route. Blackhills to Colorado. Head over the pass to the Dillon area and go rent a flyrod, fish, and be happy. Drive on south to the Salida area, and raft a little down the Arkansas river. Head west and hit Durango and Montrose then on North to Moab. Then west to Salt Lake City then on to Wendover to see the Salt Flats. Bonneville Speedweek is Aug 18-24, and World Finals are Oct 8-11. Going to the fastest place on earth is a HUGE trill during speedweek, I cant wait to go myself.

By then roll back to Iowa man.
With a lot added from SLC to home, I am at 4000 miles. :eek: I might skip canoing this weekend and hit the Badlands just for giggles n shits.

The "tweaked" version of trip #1 cause it includes Vegas, damn I love Las Vegas.
 
Yeah thats a damn good path. Only thing I would change is head west out of Salt Lake City (120 miles west) to Wendover.

Just to see this view in person, and pose with the sign. Fastest Raceway on EARTH, SON!

You could then head north on 93 to Twin Falls then head East to pick up 15 North and resume your trip.
 
I went to the salt flats back in 94?? when me and an ex went on a road trip from IA to Denver, Vegas, Diego, Lake Arrowhead, San Fran and back we hit the flats. It is some cool ****. Wish I had pics from that trip.

Dollar, Vegas was just on for reference, I will hit Hoover Damn and bypass Vegas or roll right through, I have no desire to be there for some reason :dunno:
 
The Damn Dam tour is something everyone should do. For me it was kinda extra cool, because everyday I trade power at Mead, so it was cool to actually visit the point I transact at.

I feel ya on Vegas as well, now even more that I'm married. Vegas is fun when single, but now I have to have morals. I'll be there in two weeks for work, and purposely have a trip setup driving 100 miles south to Parker, Arizona to visit one of our powerplants.
 
Vegas just does nothing for me. I am not a gambler, I hate drunk/drugged idiots in large numbers (other than in Bama) :flipoff1: and hookers don't even make it interesting enough to want to drop my coin there. :dunno:
 
Trip #1 looks cool, anything out west is fun to me. We did Yellowstone and the Tetons back in 02 I think and it was so much damn fun. Rafting down the Snake, Fly Fishing the Green, Hiking Jenny Lake and 2 days in Yellowstone. All were lots of damn fun.
 
Well change of plans.

Going to Attica for what I will assume is the last XRRA East race for me and taking the following week off to ride East, Southeast or up into New England and back through Canada.

Works better for me as my Bday is the same day as my hometowns first football game (September 5th) after the tornado and it will be a pretty damn big event I want to be a part of.
