I had envisioned purchasing a Bashan from one of the dealers in Phoenix, and riding through Buckeye and taking the back roads from there back to Yuma. Interstate 8 is out of the question being a 75 MPH highway, so either I rent a pickup, or find some back roads. I am guessing some of the roads are what 'Cannonball' Baker rode after he got east of Yuma on his famous 11 day ride from San Diego to New York. The Ural might be doable on those roads. I mapped it out on Google and using the satellite view, they look like canal and next to railroad roads rather than raw off road roads that usually run through the deserts.
