Clients can use their own bike, ride as passenger with one of WildWind’s professional tour guides, or a rental bike will be provided. The seven day/six-night Ride Around The Maypole tour kicks off from Sedona May 21 with a ride up spectacular Oak Creek Canyon, returning to Sedona May 27.

The 1,225-mile tour will stop to experience some of the Southwest’s off-the-ridden-road hidden treasures. Participants will be treated to some of the most scenic, soul-shaking roads in the world, ancient Indian ruins, spectacular canyons, old trading posts and much more of this timeless land that was once at the bottom of the sea. Winding back through the great Navajo Reservation, the tour concludes where it began, amid the erosion-sculptured rocks, clear creeks and spiritual vortices of Sedona.

Meanwhile, WildWind will lead a unique tour to the Burning Man Festival, held annually on a playa in the Nevada desert August 25th to September 1st.

Burning Man
Ever Wonder Why They Call it Burning Man?

Sturgis should be this much fun. Burning Man can only be described a once-in-a-lifetime, must-see-to-be-believed event, a mix of Halloween, Woodstock and the most captivating and intoxicating, clothes-optional interactive arts festival imaginable (visit www.burningman.com for event pictures and information). Space is limited on WildWind’s Return to Burning Man program.

Tombstone
Tombstone on an Iron Horse

“The Town too tough to die,” Tombstone, AZ, has been added to the WildWind experience as part of its southern Arizona Good Guys and Gunslingers tour, visiting the Wild West’s bawdiest saloons, brothels and bad guy haunts, as well as the spectacular scenery of Chiricahua National Monument, Patagonia and others. Wyatt Earp has got nothing on us.
