I rode the entire 01 main loop of the Paiute Trail in one day last summer, as a solo ride. I left Richfield at 5:00 AM, and got back to Richfield again at 6:00 PM, after 275 miles riding my Grizzly 700. That was my all time greatest ATV adventure to date. As far as "what would be my dream trail ride?" ... Paris to Dakar would be the ultimate adventure if you ask me. Of course I'll never in my life have the time or resources to do that, but it sure would be fun.

I'll have to do the Paiute trail someday, I live in Utah and just need to take the time to go out and do it. The problem with me is I love to ride dunes more than anything so it's hard to find time riding trails when there are dunes to be ridden. As far as my dream ride, it would be to travel up the pacific coast and stop at every dune riding area starting with Pismo and ending in the Northern most dunes of Oregon. I just love the idea of being next to the beach while riding dunes.

Any place up in the mountains, I live in north central Missouri so most of the trail systems are kinda bleh in the view deptartment, I just want to ride somewhere with breath taking views. Me and some friends are currently discussing a week long trip somewhere for camping/riding. We just have to get the $$ together to do so, hauling that many bikes with gas prices the way they are is going to be expensive for us to get anywhere with that kind scenery

Wow went and looked that trail system up and that looks incredible, also looks like a GPS system is a must have lol. All the trails we ride which are withing 2 hours drive considerably smaller and no need for the gps like 75miles of trails max.
