The next morning we packed our things and said our goodbyes. Ten minutes later we were gassing up and eating gas station food before our first long leg of the day. On our return trip we would be visiting the Grand Canyon and staying in Paige, Arizona for the night.
I had never been to the Grand Canyon before this, and I wasn't disappointed. The three of us peered over the edge at the tiny river below and took in the sight before us. It was incredible. I thought of an early Nitro Circus episode where they rode motorcycles off jumps into the Grand Canyon and then pulled parachutes. I also couldn't help but think of Joe Dirt.
Before leaving the park we spent a good twenty minutes browsing through the gift shop. Eventually, we came across a taxidermized mountain lion on display that Brad immediately observed to have Down Syndrome. Judge for yourself.
Afterwards, we rode straight to Paige. We arrived just as the sun was setting and decided to stay the night rather than ride in the dark and cold. A few hours later we were in our motel rooms asleep, recharging for our the fifth and final day.
