After a day on the motorcycles, the invitation to sample the treatment menu at the CopperWynd Spa was accepted with relief and enthusiasm. (Click image to enlarge)
At the opposite end of the riding mounts spectrum is the Bob Bondurant School, located just down the road from the resort. Options range from being driven around a racetrack in a high-performance Corvette by one of the instructors to a multiday custom curriculum conducted by Bondurant himself.

A return to CopperWynd and an exquisite departure dinner at its Alchemy restaurant brings a perfect end to a perfect day. Percy Bysshe Shelley had it right when he wrote, "The soul’s joy lies in doing." Though, as I considered the long ride back to Los Angeles that awaited the next day, I could argue that sometimes the joy lies not in doing but in having done.
