Its hot too.....
I know - 36�C still this week... luverly!

I was out here last year on my XR650R, and as you say, it is fantastic... my plan is revisit some favorite spots - Death Valley, Black Rock and up to Oregon, but first I'm going to head over to Sedona AZ and up to Moab in Utah before the weather turns...

Sounds like a good plan! I'm planing on heading down to Baja in December, then heading through the southern states to Florida for Daytona in February, then coming back along the TAT (Trans America Trail) in the spring...

It is beautiful there - I was there at the end of July and there was still snow on the peaks! I can certainly recommend the ride from Grenoble to Moutiers via the N91, D526, D927, D123. And the N90/S26 via the Col du St Bernard into Italy of course!

Pack your thermals mind!
