September 20 - 21, 2008
Touring is getting to be a slight bit easier - especially after nearly 3000 miles last month, but now it's time to do a little exploring closer to home. A perfect weekend get-away, according to the fellas on the forum, is to head north toward Sedona, and the fun little artsy community of Jerome, AZ
I don't exactly recall the route we took, but I'm fairly certain it was via Payson and points west.
A few photos from this ride...
A fun get-away, but still warm in mid September.

From here, our next stop would be the Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument. There's a volcano in Arizona? Yep!

| There were a few areas of lava flow; this was one of them mostly accessible by foot. You could hike the crater to see the interior of the volcano... |
 |
| 900-odd years ago it happened. |
 |
| For a few days, having the extra bag on the bike helped a lot. |
