That would be a lot of fun!  I know one of the guys from my yota forum just got back from a trip to Moab and he said it was well worth the time / $$$!  If I remember right, he planned the trip for about 2 years before going.

Makes me miss Colorado.  It's not quite the same, but still.

I've always wanted to go to the Rubicon and Moab too.

I might spell a road trip for next year's GSW.

My gas guage hasn't worked since October, and I've only run out twice. I think that's pretty good.  :D As soon as this axle is done I'll be fixing that.  :o

So you are using mileage? Mine varies but around town it usually gets to 180 and the light is on. Man, I wish I got better mileage. That's what the bike is for!
