      Left Richfield this morning ( had to put the rain gear on for the first time but not that bad) and took 89 all the way up to Spanish Fork, where I got on i15 to Slat Lake City....but I was looking at the map for a way around salt lake..and remembered if I took 80 west in a couple of hours I would be in where else but Bonnwville freakin salt flats. So of course I did! Man 80 is fast with speed limit of 80..... I cruised at 140-180kms for most of it...they have had a lot of rain so a lot is under water but man this was so cool to do! A guy from Quebec took my pic but most of the time I was there I was all by myself....
      This was outside Spanish Fork around 12:30..cool to see the windmills up close...











      Yes I took a salt piece home with me...

        Amazing photo's Trevor, man, the time you must be having. The one pic of the flats makes it look like you're down in the Caribbean somewhere.

              Great pics....
              Back in '98 i drove thru Zion, and vowed to return someday when not in a rush. Such a surreal and beautiful place.

              The El Camino with its 454 and Flowmaster mufflers sounded quite nice echoing thru that tunnel..... Good times.

                Sounds like you're have blast Trevor. Not sure NF39 is doable yet but check with forestry. It's an early spring so it just might be open. Website says it's not but the site is probably not up to date. Let us know if it is. Good travels there bud. You and Rob still thinking of coming this way or is life getting in the way?

                      They haven't been able to race the last 2 years due to declining salt (excess mining) and rain. Some people think they may never again race there, although they have tentative dates for this year..

                        Still that highway across the flats is long, straight and made for seeing how fast things go. I'd have done it.

                              Our speedos only go to 85MPH. Except my Canadian bike goes to 240KPH..
