📍 Utah: Canyons in the Canyons
“Is it gravel or paved?” The question comes up often on online motorcycle forums when riders are attempting to figure out the composition of a specific road along their route. We’re all “adventurers,” but deep down, most of us know that we can’t handle a full-sized bike like Christian Pfeiffer at the Erzberg Rodeo. Throw in a passenger and luggage, and we tend to stick to the pavement, even on “adventure” machines.
When planning, we scrutinize our routes, zooming in deep on Google Earth and asking ourselves whether the road is worse than when the picture was taken or what happens if it rains. Can-Am claims its new three-wheeled Canyon makes such questions less relevant and opens the touring experience up to places we might have otherwise avoided. To test this premise, my riding partner and photographer Holly and I spent a week riding Canyons through the best gravel and dirt Utah’s national parks have to offer.
