Embedded Files
This Adventure is setup as a 4 day ride. We focus on the best parts of the Arizona forests and mountains. The routes include: Part of the Arizona Piece Trail, Prescott National Forest, Hualapai Mountain, Hualapai Indian Reservation, Wickenburg, Prescott , Seligman, Kingman, and Quartzsite. The ride will start and finish in Quartzsite AZ. Each days ride will end at a motel and riders will eat in restaurants along the way. That will be part of the fun. There is a lot of color in back Arizona. It is possible but not likely to encounter winter weather, so bring your cold weather rain gear. Riders will need to carry their own gear in their vehicle.
There are route options along the way with preferences to UTV or Jeeps.
Navigation Made Easy
We have made navigation easy for riders by developing a custom GPS chip to simply install into your Garmin GPS or BMW GPS unit. We have also made matching paper ride maps that you can carry directly with you for quick reference and collaboration with your friends.

OK since many of you like to study more detail about the ride, below are the ride maps.
I put these ride maps on the web page because I know a few of you love looking at the ride detail and dreaming about the ride. At first glance these maps do not look so impressive, but they are way cool. If you start zooming in, you can see the ride in incredible detail. I have spent a ton of hours sorting through the details of the ride for each day, so for those of you that enjoy this sort of thing, well enjoy!

How does the ride navigation work?
This is a self-led GPS ride; all riding is on your own. You are responsible for your own riding. You will be given a GPS map file and instructions on how to use your Garmin GPS unit. People will hook up in small groups of less than 6 riders and tend to ride together. You are not encouraged to ride alone. You are responsible for your own riding and yourself.

Are you right for this ride?
When something goes wrong on a ride, would your riding friends say that you are more likely to need help or more likely to give help? You should be in the more likely to offer help camp. This ride is filled with riders that are more likely to give help, so most of the time the riders never need help. Additionally there is all the normal stuff, come prepared to maintain your bike, fix your bike on the trail, repair flat tires, deal with bad weather and rain and make a joke or two.
How do I make the GPS stuff so easy?
I develop very high quality ride maps custom for our ride. They come from much of what I and others have ridden. I take the best from all my rides and make new ones.

Note from me, gpsKevin
My goal for this ride is simple,: great riding. So you can count on great routes and places to ride.
But in addition, the ride is about: discovering new places, meeting new friends, seeing new parts of the Southwest.
Thanks
