Payson Airport and return via 2 options

Event date: 
Sat, 04/27/2024 - 8:30am to 4:00pm

Original ride plan was written in an easy up-to-Payson/down-from-Payson way. Some folks have decided to do a longer, much more scenic route. I'll list the two main options for routes, but please remember you're free to choose where you want to go and how you want to get there.

 

Option 1: Go up to Payson to the airport for breakfast. Head from there across 188 and wind up around Roosevelt Lake and Globe. Take US 60 home. Rough estimate map is here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/3mtTtsokqumrn6kV7 and original ride plan is here

 

Option 2: Go up to Payson and take 260 across to Show Low. Take US 60 from Show Low to Globe, and continue on the ride home. The ride ends up being 4 almost-perfect 90 minute legs. Rough estimate map is here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/cjb7g5J8SSLHrUsH8
