Northern AZ Loop

Join CGR on a 3-day, 2-night ride of Arizona's northern country. This specific route will loop us through the White Mountains, the Painted Desert/Holbrook region, and the high Country. We will ride through some of the best landscape and curves Arizona has to offer! Combining the technical twisties around Superior and Miami with the epic sweeps of the Salt River Canyon and the cool mountain air of the Mogollon Rim will make for a premier desert-to-pine ride.

### Day 1: Casa Grande to Pine-Top/Show Low

• Depart Casa Grand through the winding grades of Superior and Miami then across the breathtaking Salt River Canyon into Whiteriver then Pinetop-Show Low. With dramatic canyon drop-offs, and a cool pine-scented evening greeting us upon arrival in the White Mountains. We will stay our first night in Pinetop-Show Low.

### Day 2: Show Low to Payson

• Next morning will continue to travel Northeast and cruise the loop witnessing the sweeping transition from high-elevation timberlands down into the open spaces near Holbrook before catching the historic backbone down toward the mountains before heading Southbound through the heart of Arizona and into Payson. Where we will make our second night's stay.

### Day 3: Payson to Home

• Our final day of travel we will leave Payson, the South Mogollon Rim cruising into the lower Tonto Basin and the iconic water views riding alongside Roosevelt Lake. A second helping of those technical mountain curves around Miami and Superior, to end and return back to the valley floor.
