capton Posted October 17, 2008 #1 Posted October 17, 2008 Hey I'm leaving western ny 10/18 for ut,and grand canyon.
cowpuc Posted October 17, 2008 #2 Posted October 17, 2008 Dont know if you r riding your scoot or not but if you are be realllllly careful in those mountains at this time of year.. My daughter and I did a late season trip to the North Rim a few years ago and hit an ice storm coming through the Grand Mesa and had accumulating snow on the roads near the Canyon.. Still wayyy fun camping and touring as long as you dress warm.. Have fun!!!!! 'Puc
bongobobny Posted October 17, 2008 #3 Posted October 17, 2008 Hey capton, if you happen to be coming thru this way around noon be sure to drop in at Earls on rt 16 just north of rt 39 for lunch and say hi to some fellow Ventureriders!! That's the day of my 3rd annual fall folage ride!
capton Posted October 17, 2008 Author #4 Posted October 17, 2008 Thanks Bob, hope to be in ohio by then and yes I'm ridden the scoot.
cecdoo Posted October 17, 2008 #5 Posted October 17, 2008 Sounds like a great trip, ride safe, I will ask the weather gods to help you out:big-grin-emoticon: Craig

utadventure Posted October 17, 2008 #7 Posted October 17, 2008 Give us a holler if you come through SLC!! Dave
mraf Posted October 17, 2008 #8 Posted October 17, 2008 There is nothing more awe inspiring than the Grand Canyon. Be sure to see Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon not as immense but just as beautiful. We planned on going west this year again but life just got in the way. Have a safe trip.
mini-muffin Posted October 17, 2008 #9 Posted October 17, 2008 Have a great trip and a wonderful time. Might want to make sure you have the ventureriders list so you can get in touch with folks along the way. Plenty of folks willing to have a cup with you or even a meal. Oh for some of us who haven't gotten that far I hope you get some nice pics too. Margaret
capton Posted October 20, 2008 Author #10 Posted October 20, 2008 ''m in locust grove ok. weather looks cold heading west next few days o well.
Guest JGorom Posted October 20, 2008 #11 Posted October 20, 2008 Sounds like a wonderful trip...be safe...enjoy the ride...and hope to see you next Spring for a ride with some of other Western New Yorkers.
capton Posted November 2, 2008 Author #12 Posted November 2, 2008 I got home 10/30 6311 miles 13days,no pictures ,lost camera on I20 between dallas tyler tx, so if you find a hopnel bag with camera in it let me know.
bongobobny Posted November 2, 2008 #13 Posted November 2, 2008 Glad you made it out and back safely! Sorry about the loss of your camera, though. We must have taken about 500 pictures when we went out there a couple of years ago. Mraf is right about Zion and Bryce, and hope you got to see them as well. I'm pulling the '85 into the garage to try to get started and restored this winter. Glad you talked me into taking the title just in case!
