Utah Day2 - Hell's Backbone, Bryce Canyon, Grand Staircase Escalante, Hogsback, Bicknell

 
Day 2
We meet our fellow UTVROC new riding friends and learn about the ride of the day.  Sounds like a fun adventure and outlined below.
 
 
Here is the Capitol Reef Inn.  Very nice place and we were able to get the bike
2 bedroom suite for the same price.  Would stay here again.  Great friends made
while here.

This means heaven to a motorcycle rider.  I'm not sure that anything could provoke a bigger smile.



Joe and Yvette from Colorado in the rearview mirror on the ride.






This was 1/2 sausage order gravy and biscuts.

Some of us chatting after eating



Joe was giving the waitress a hard time about and auto 20% tip,
even though service and food was pretty good.







Looking back after riding up the canyon.


Group break

Scheduled burn... Sign said "please do not report fires in this area."

Shannon and I were trying to figure out where the top section of the mountain
went?  We couldn't figure it out.

Again, this brings big smiles to motorcycle riders. If you are in a car, please
pull aside and let us pass.

Pretty nice high elevation desert vegetation.


More smiles!








We broke off from the group as they were ready to head back. We wanted to go ahead
and sight see just a bit more while we were out.
 




 






These were reminders for me I think.

And yet again.
and again.


My father's side of the family is from Bicknell, IN and
my aunt has a great pizza place there.

The owner had a attitude that fit the sign,
my way or the highway. But it was good his
 way, when you add onions my way...lol
 
This ended up being dinner, on two nights :)


This is the view just down the road between Bicknell and Torrey.  Very nice view to wake and go to sleep to.
