Tooele "on the road" trip Pictures

We left on a Thursday and arrived at Tooele (prounounced “too el ah”) Friday night.  Jerry, a lifelong good friend, and I road our motorcycles to the event.  Not to be outdone by the chores of getting there and back, we decided to ride our motorcycles through some of the great roads in northern Arizona and southern Utah and make a fun trip out of the adventure.  We Left on a Thursday morning and road through Payson,  Mexican Hat on the way to Hanksville, Utah, where we spent the night.  Next day we had a short 400 mile ride through some of the really great middle and southern parts of Utah.  We even ran into snow while traversing one of the passes just south of Salt Lake City.

Jerry road his Yamaha FJR and I was on my 2007 Sportster.
