It was quite the ride. I'd estimate about 200-250 miles of that was dirt but probably 3/4 of our time. Utah high country is very beautiful and very unpredictable between snow and sun we saw it all. Between the giant loop and my little saddlebags and tiny tank bag I was able to keep all of my...

In Weber we parted ways and I headed up Pine Canyon and over Guardsman Pass into SLC then back home. 227 miles. Long day... I was bushed. Our total for the trip was about 615 miles I hope to invite more of you guys on these type of adventures and explore more of Utah!

The final stretch into Strawberry reservoir has all the sketchy pea gravel in the land and is only finally comfortable when you decide you're ok with the tail wagging the dog at around 45mph... After Strawberry we jumped back on pavement on the 40 back over Daniel's summit where every semi was...

then I honked and all the sheep...

Around electric lake and then down coal canyon and Whiskey canyon which has got the really long crazy coal shoot next to the road. Next out around Scofield reservoir and over Joe's ridge on the 96. A quick and windy jaunt down highway 6 to Soldier Summit for gas and C store lunch then back...

Day 3 was a day of lakes. Not a bad view to woke up to. Rolled up camp and hit the dirt. Cruised past Miller flat reservoir, Rolfson reservoir, Cleveland reservoir and then Huntington reservoir. Out onto pavement for a minute. Around Fairview lake on a section of the Huntington loop and...

So at maybe 195 miles we stopped earlier in the day to camp for the night. Fewer miles but the most hard technical off-road and I was ready to rest. We were going to look for some place off the beaten path to camp but there's no dispersed camping on the lake shore and a great FS spot next to the...

Looking out over the Swell. Out onto the 72 which was the best string of asphalt of the whole trip. And up to I70. Crossed I70 onto the 10 north (which is the most boring and straight and windy section of our ride). To Orangeville (Castle Dale) for more gas and shade glorious shade at like...

There's definitely some ironic truth to this.

River crossing. @glockman

At Torrey we turn off north at Sand Creek. And headed up the Torrey GWT trailhead. If you have a random old guy in denim on denim give you advice, he'll send you up a black diamond switchback ATV/mc only connector trail. This is a great idea for a 400+ lb Scrambler and 530+ dual sport...

Then down into Loa for gas and lunch Double decker bus place is good!

We made it to fish lake for a quick break. I had a little range anxiety at 92 miles, so I got gas at the boat dock. Made the two kids day I think they looked bored sitting in the Marina shack. They were worried about making me pay $3.75 a gallon. I took two gallons. Ooof. LoL.

Day #2 We woke up in Squaw Hollow to the sweet melodious moos of a thousand cows and made some brekky before breaking camp and heading up over Gooseberry.

No noise here. That sounds like an aggressive pad compound though. They had a problem machining the delrin pistons slightly oversize and they stick in the bore so the levers wouldn't snap back out. A little heat in the system and it was not confidence inspiring... Got them back today! Got a...

Specialized is replacing my SRAM Guide brake pistons and levers under warranty. Hope to have my bike back tomorrow.

Oxbow. They're local and rad too. https://www.oxbowgear.com/product/voyager-dirt-bike-helmet-light/

Yes

That looks amazing!

I did not consider the triumph as it's heavier (44+ lbs) and has significantly less horsepower (15-20 less) and the suspension is a good deal less refined. If it's high exhaust you want termi makes one.
