Day 1. To Phoenix \/ Scottsdale. Stay at the luxurious Scottsdale Plaza Resort!<\/p>\n

Day 2 Scottsdale – Parker AZ.\u00a0Pick up our bikes in the AM. Head west over the lonely desert to Parker, Az. A dusty little village on the Colorado River. Lot’s going on here, floating bars,\u00a0 river-hillbillies and bad-ass V8 boats.<\/p>\n

Day 3. Parks AZ – Barstow CA. Sublime desert ride all day on perfect asphalt, due west to Barstow CA, known for nothing except my favorite hotel, Quality Inn Old Route 66, a latino-owned oasis in the\u00a0heart of the heat.<\/p>\n

Day 4. Barstow CA – Las Vegas NV.\u00a0Smack dab in the middle of real Route 66 country. We’ll jump on original Route 66 to Amboy AZ. There we go north and into the Mojave National Preserve, or the planet Mars, which I usually call it. We\u00a0head north through this. Beautiful and magical. We reach Sin City in the late afternoon. Downtown near Fremont Street. Oh yea, .2 nights. Hold on to your hat.<\/p>\n

Day 5. Las Vegas. Day off. Fun and games,.<\/p>\n

Day 6. Las Vegas NV – Seligman AZ via Hoover Dam. We leave early to the Hoover Dam which is considered to be one of the few man-made wonders on earth. It’s really awesome to check out. From there, south on a seemingly endless straight road back down to our old friend Route 66 at Kingman and east on 66 to Seligman AZ. Once an important hub for all Route 66 travelers, but now, since the Interstate highway killed The Mother Road, a\u00a0true ghost town. You will not believe your eyes when you see Seligman.<\/p>\n

Day 7. Seligman AZ – Flagstaff AZ via The Grand Canyon. We continue east and north and feel the air getting a little thinner and a little cooler because we’re riding through\u00a0the high desert up to A REALLY BIG HOLE:\u00a0The Grand Canyon. Not much to say about this place except: WTF !! ??. After we’ve checked this out we return\u00a0south to Flagstaff AZ.<\/p>\n

(Notice, all Route 66 aficionados, that we visit three villages that are\u00a0mentioned in the classic song: “Get your Kicks on Route 66” Flagstaff, Kingman and Barstow.)<\/p>\n

Day 8. Flagstaff AZ – Prescott AZ via Sedona AZ. Today is such a “Holy Moley\u00a0I have never seen so much natural beauty in my life – day” We’re in a mountain area now, Flagstaff is right up there, it can be nippy in the mornings, We head south through Oak Creek Canyon (incredibly beautiful),\u00a0and the mystical Sedona (fucking incredibly beautiful), then up, up, up to the hippie\u00a0ex mining village, hanging on a mountainside (?!), Jerome, and finally through Prescott National Forest ( a mighty mountain drive) to Cowboy\u00a0Town Nr. 1, Prescott AZ. We stay on Whiskey Row. Mm-hmm. A short day, distance-wise, but a long ride time-wise. All good!<\/p>\n

Day 9. Prescott – Scottsdale AZ.\u00a0More mountain roads over crazy beautiful\u00a0landscapes until we come down to the valley, desert and back to the heat. We end up back in Scottsdale and start our two-day stay at\u00a0 The Scottsdale Plaza Resort, in the middle of the town, Here we do what we want, and there is a lot to see and do. Mostly, everyone just wants to party by the pool(s)!<\/p>\n

Day 10 Scottsdale Plaza Resort = luxury chill + party, visit Old Town etc.<\/p>\n
