Hi from New Zealand.
I am planning a trip in August Colorado to Los Angeles, by car not bike, but I do have a little RS1100 waiting for another fine day in my garage.

Any way, while you are doing your rides, do you have any themes you like to choose. Eg Go to X for a coffee then take the long way home? The reason why I am asking as during my planned trip in August, I have been thinking about doing a circular day trip, in with all the driving, just for fun. I am going to try to do 4 States in a day - Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado.

My circular day trip route starts in Utah, as I expect to have spent time in Arches N.P. the day before, but depending on your travel, you could reverse it.

Starting in Bluff, Utah, travelling to Mexican Water, Arizona. Then through
Mexican Water to Teec Nos Pos via the Navajo Reservation to
Four Corners Monument, New Mexico, then onto Cortez, Colorado . Here you have it, 4 States in a Day, I think it is only something a bikie will do. The next day I will visit Mesa Verde N.P. Four Corners Monument is where you can be in 4 states at once.

Have fun.
