No one should ride through life in fear!     ESCAPE

Leaving Las Vegas
Day One - Friday - September 26


Las Vegas, Nevada to Hurricane, Utah - 140 miles

If all goes well, the bike will be packed Thursday night, ready to go to work with me on Friday. Kickstand-up will be no later than 6PM. If it just so happens that a sponsor wants to give a little send-off, well, so be it, but if I am to make it to Hurricane by 9PM, 6 is the latest. Other possible places where I could stop for the night include La Verkin, Virgin, Grafton and Rockville, UT. If I keep going, there is Springdale and Zion National Park where camping should be plentiful. Immediately after Springdale are a lot of nifty little switchbacks. There is NO WAY I want to ride that at night or when I am tired. If I make it all the way to Springdale, that will add an additional 21 miles to my ride on Day One, but equally will make Day Two 21 miles shorter. I will try.

  • There will only be one planned stop in Nevada at Mesquite. Depending on conditions, I may stop at Logandale for fuel and brief rest.
  • There is also only one planned stop in Utah at St. George.
