    Default 7th annual cross country wild hawgs style ride.

    looks like my hubby & his buddy are already planning another cross country trip. they have gotten addicted to riding cross country & hitting national parks & monuments,

    this is the route that they are considering this year, prob in June 2018 as always anyone wanting to ride is more than welcome.

    looks like a ton of national parks & monuments will be close together on this trip, that's why they looking to stop at so many.

    our 14 yr old girl likes to ride with them, its a reward for getting all A's in school every year.

    so i pass on the long rides & most times just fly out to Vegas & see them when they come thru for the day.

    Hey, any hubby/dad that's willing to take his daughter on a ride like this one for achieving a straight "A" report card has got my vote for dad of the year.

    Sounds like dad and daughter have a great relationship. My little girl is all grown up. I miss those days.

    I would suggest that they check out 'city of rocks' just outside of Silver City, NM; also look at going to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon; less people and just as nice of views as the south rim. Was wondering why Mountainair, NM.

    My son and I rode dirt bikes when he was little, and we'd take mini vacations together on the bagger. Now it's just me, my wife and the dog and cat.

    normally they leave on Saturday mornings & return the following sunday or so......... normally 9-12 days

    their longest one was 2 years ago when they went all the way to crater lake in Oregon & down the Pacific Coat Highway. 14 days on that one 7,204 miles

    they like to hit national parks & national monuments & Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument is in MountainAir NM

    hahahah both of them have 3 vest each, full of national park & monument patches from their travels. they enjoy getting those instead of the traditional patches you see on most vest. & it is definatly a conversation starter & my hubby loves to talk. hahahah

    I may be interested in going on this trip. If okay I just need to arrange for my dialysis solution to be picked up somewhere out west. I can only carry enough on bike and trailer for seven days. Would that be a problem for you? I could always slip off and do that and catch back up.

    Holy smokes that is a lot of ground to cover in a week..... on a bike. I used to live in Snellville when I was a kid, left back in '78 when it was still a small town. That was when 78 was just 2 lanes all the way back to Stone Mountian.

    This sounds like a very nice trip. I hope to do about a 3 week trip out west in the next 3-5 years. I just need to recover a little more from my daughters college tuition and other bills that racked up. Those things kind of put early retirement off by a couple of years. I hope to do this while I am still in good health and can enjoy this and many more trips. Have fun.

    Chiricaua National Monument is very nice. Check out Tombstone if you get a chance.

    When they go to Roosevelt, AZ make sure to have lunch at Ma's Kitchen located just off the highway at Roosevelt Estates. The patty melt is the best in the world and they won't need another meal for a very long time. Just up the road is the Cliff Dwelling National Monument. A hike to the dwellings is for someone younger than me but they can be seen well from the parking lot and binoculars help. A very ambitious schedule. Should be a blast.
