A Harley Trip!

We took this trip clear back in MAY.... I'm sooo late blogging about it, but I have SO much to catch up on from the past few months! We had so much fun I couldn't leave it out! I never thought I would be a motorcycle girl, but Ryan loves it! We have done short rides out to dinner, but this was a serious TRIP! I was totally nervous about being on the back of a motorcycle for 2 days... We went to Flagstaff for the weekend with the Jacksons, Murphys, and Laidlaws. Those  couples flew on the Murphy's plane, and Ryan and I drove the trailer with all the Harley's. I had to put a picture of my helmet that I loved way too much... I tried to dress the part :) I will admit I was way more excited about the trip after shopping at Laidlaw's! yes those are pink rhinestones as the Harley emblem haha!

So we got to Flagstaff on Thursday night, and Friday we did a 200 mile loop. From Flag we rode to Sedona, to Jerome, to Prescott and back to Flagstaff. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was! The scenery was so amazing. Sedona was so fun, we stopped and ate lunch and shopped at the cute shops. Jerome is a town built on the side of a mountain, it was amazing! It is like a ghost town that is full of artists and good food. I love Prescott, it is the sweetest little town and we enjoyed walking around the town square and shopping. 200 miles is a LONG way to ride in one day! This day was great because we stopped and walked and had a break from the riding. 

Saturday we rode to the Grand Canyon. I had never been to the Grand Canyon, so I was so excited to go! However, there is no place to stop between Flag and the Grand Canyon, so we rode for 100 miles there and then another 100 on the way back! I was SORE! As fun as it is, it is not the most comfortable ride :) But I loved it anyways!

Ok I had no idea that there was a secret hand signal between Harley riders... I was laughing, and this was arguably my favorite part of riding! Lisa and I practicing our "I'm sweet, your sweet" acknowledgment to the other riders! Ryan did tell I was only allowed to give it to others who were riding a Harley... I guess there are "uncool" motorcycles :)

We had such a fun weekend, and loved the rides! It was fun to be with the other couples. We are looking forward to the next trip!
