KTMrad 513 Posted July 10, 2008 I'm joining a group of about 5 others to do the Trans America Trail (best parts of it) from somewhere near Pueblo Colorado to the Oregon Coast. I'm riding the 950 out, going to take a few days to get to Pueblo, maybe have some friends as tour guides for dirt near Flagstaff. Then we start the TA Trail on August 17th, head over the Rockies, then drop down into Utah. We'll do the White Rim Trail thru Canyonlands N.P. Then going across Utah and Nevada is going to be friggin' HOT, HOT, HOT !! Should get a little cooler at some point in Oregon, should take a couple weeks to reach the coast. Then I'd like to take about a week to ride down from Oregon, hitting dirt through Northern Cal and the Sierra, then home. Got a few little things to do on the 950 for prep.....I'm gettin' psyched !!

jdubya 0 Posted July 10, 2008 That sounds like a blast. I wish I could take a month off. That is the best part of the TAT.....the part I would like to do.

tntmo 898 Posted July 10, 2008 I'm extremely jealous, I had hoped to do a portion of the TAT this year but work had other plans for me. Lots of pics and a good write-up will keep me sane. Are you planning on camping, or getting hotel rooms? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crawdaddy 96 Posted July 10, 2008 I'm gettin' psyched !! I don't blame you......I'm psyched just reading about it!!!......sounds like an awesome trip.......wish I could afford to take a leave of absence from work for a month......not in the cards right now.....I guess Tom and I, and a few others no doubt, will have to live vicariously through "Adventure RAD" in the meantime.....

dirt dame 561 Posted July 10, 2008 It is still a dream of mine to do the western part of this ride, say from Colorado to Oregon. Maybe some day.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
