The Ride

A majority of this years run will be on Route 66. We will travel both I-44 and I-40 portions of which have are designated parts of the historic route. On occasion we will venture from the highway to ride some of the older original portions of the mother road. Most nights we will stay on or very close to the original road. We pick up Route 66 in Missouri and follow it to Holbrook, AZ, where we will turn left for a scenic run across the Salt River Canyon and into the Phoenix area..*
