Monument Valley and Bryce Canyon
I am presently in northern Colombia where my round the world tour on my V-Strom was cut short by a careless truck driver. The bike's fine, but I broke my collar bone in a couple of places and needed surgery. I'll be fit to ride in a week or so, but am now so far behind schedule that I have decided to ship my bike home; I have also had a gut-full of the crap driving here and cannot face central America.
I will fly north to catch my flight from New York to the UK, but would disparately like to see Monument Valley and Bryce Canyon on my way back. I can get a flight to Las Vegas or Salt Lake City, from where I'd like to fulfil my dream of seeing the natural wonders of this part of the world.
My questions:
Will it be too hot to realistically do this on a bike at this time of the year?
Is it possible to rent a bike, such as a V-Strom or KLR650 (not a Harley as I would like to ride the dirt road through Monument Valley) in either of these cities in order to make my trip?
I would be grateful for any advice.
