A sun-baked ribbon of asphalt unfurls between red sandstone fins and scrubby creosote as scooters hum to life beneath a wide Nevada sky. Riders ease into a one-way, 13-mile loop where cliffs lean in like old friends and wind dares you to pin the throttle and look up. The sound is part engine, part desert: a steady, mechanical exhale that keeps time with the landscape.
