It sounded like a lot of folks were interested in a Vegas run. I would be happy to organize a group ride.
The best time is in the Spring or Fall, summer is HOT - but doable! I know some decent places to stay off the strip for good prices... on the strip is mo fun, but much mo $$$, maybe we can have two hotels (similiar to Laguna).
As far as rides, most of this area is high-speed straights with broad sweeping curves. We have some decent curvey roads, but not the tight twisties like California. Unfortunately, the best roads are also the most patrolled. In my opinion, a very fun ride is Death Valley... SUPER FAST and not too patrolled (outside the National Park). If folks want longer rides, Zion National Park is only 3 hours North of Vegas and has GREAT roads and incredible beauty.
Let me know if you are interested.
