Highway 12 is spectacular, but please pull over and let motorcycles go have fun in the corners (I say without a hint of selfishness).

"Moab" is a town in Utah named after an ancient country in what is modern-day Jordan. From now on I'm going to reply to every post containing "MOAB" with "Random MOAB facts" about the GBU-43/B.

That was the nickname given by servicemembers, not the official designation.

Stay tuned for more MOAB-facts.
