A friend and I recently rode our RV-250's from Tucson to Roswell and back. We left Tuesday and returned Thursday. The return trip was along a different route and was closer to 600 miles.
I am posting pics and route descriptions on our club blog. Only part I is up now. Part II will be about the ride back.

Nice report and thanks for posting.
After reading about your motivation for this trip, I rewatched "Long Way Round". This certainly looks like a easier ride than Mongolia.
