Anyone done the Copper Canyon?

I rode a motorcycle across the Copper Canyon. It was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I did it on my own but there is a motorcycle tour company operating in the region:

Rosen's Rides

I think this is by far the best way to do it!

I did it as part of a trip down to Morelia, and I followed a route fairly close to that of the train on that segment, from Chihuahua to Los Mochis. I spent two or three nights with an American who has a place in Urique, a small village at the bottom of one of the canyons.

Doing it by motorcycle was a truly amazing experience.
