I'm flying out to Vegas on Saturday the 12th and rented a Street Glide for 4 days. I planned on taking day trips to the following areas and hopefully find dealerships nearby to get shirts from. Anyone from the Vegas area that can offer any tips or suggestions concerning weather and or dealers heading to any of these areas?
It's my first venture out to the southwest but wanted to take a little mental checkout from the snow and below freezing temps up here in Connecticut and do a little desert riding while on vacation. We usually ride in anything above 40 or so, and it looks like the averages are around the low to mid 50's during the day so that is balmy enough for me.
Needles, CA / Bullhead City, AZ (250 miles Round trip)
Barstow, Ca. (300 mi. R/T)
Death Valley (350 mi R/T)
I just want to make sure I won't be crossing any high elevation mountain ranges on the way to any of these locations with risk of snow. I also planned just day trips to be able to avoid nights in the desert which I know are freezing this time of year.
NV T shirt - Las Vegas easy choice
Ca - Victorville seems to be the closest to Barstow?
AZ - Kingman?
Have a car for the week too and plan on hitting the dam and Grand Canyon....didn't look like a good idea on a bike.
Open to suggestions to must see places around any of the areas as well![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
