After digesting this mighty breakfast we head west on Hwy 50 then right onto a fantastic road called Hwy 92. I stumbled across this magnificent road a couple of years ago and couldn't wait to ride it again.
In short, it's about 30 miles of perfect windy tarmac through some of the best scenery you will find anywhere and almost zero traffic. The hardest part is wondering whether you should concentrate on the magnificent road or look around at the spectacular mountains and views. Think of teh best road you've ever ridden and then double the happiness.
The worst part about this road is I decided to go back down it to get to the National Park on the other side of the Canyon. This tour leader stuff can be a very tough gig at times......
