    Flying in to Phoenix for a few days

    Wow! Why haven't I been here sooner? Arizona 89 definitely ranks in the top 5 roads I've ridden. And the CTX, while not very comfortable for me, performed admirably. Tomorrow... Heading east.

    Flying in to Phoenix for a few days

    Picked up bike. Riding a brand new CTX just to try something new. Heading to Flagstaff and back today. Thinking Tortilla Flat/Roosvelt tomorrow.

    Flying in to Phoenix for a few days

    K... After some delays, we finally made it to AZ. Given the forecast for the next few days, we are heading to Sedona after picking up the Bike at AZ Ride in Scotsdale. If anyone wants to meet up, email or pm me and I'll check in regularly.

    Flying in to Phoenix for a few days

    Thanks Don! We'll try and make that work. Still working on which bike to get from AZRide as the FJR is booked. Typical 'mericans! Turning down the heat when we Canucks come down.

    Looks like plenty to see. ... even without Greasewood Flat.

    Anyone have experience with AZRide? They have an FJR and their rates seem pretty standard, but...

    Flying in to Phoenix for a few days

    Thanks Don. PM'd BeemerDon already and we'll hopefully be getting together. And it'll take al lot more than Phoenix in the winter to melt me. ;-)

    Flying in to Phoenix for a few days

    Touching down in Phoenix from the 9th to the 16th. Interested in getting a bike for at least a couple days while I'm there. Looking for recommendations for bike rentals and "must do" day rides. Meeting up with some other forum members for a ride would be cool.

    Alberta Fall Tech Day 2015

    Looks like the third Saturday is not going to work. Jeff and I will talk and see if we can reschedule before the snow flies. Rszk, Yes, there have been Spring and/or Fall Tech Days for the last several years. Usually hosted at Jeff's (Canucklehead), but occasionally at my place. Both in...

    Planning Help Needed! Last minute, spontaneous, trip to Vermont

    Thanks guys! I'm told this will be one of the busiest wknds of the year in the area, but we'll be leaf peeping ourselves. Don't get this kind of colour out west. Nailed down some reasonably priced accommodation along the way so should be all good. I don't have any firm route plans so I'll use...

    Alberta Fall Tech Day 2015

    Jeez, it seems like just yesterday that I shovelled my beloved "Cherise" out of the snow for the first ride of the season. Although we were negligent in hosting a Spring Tech Day this year, I think a good Fall Tech Day might redeem us. How does the third Satuday of October sound?

    Alberta Members

    Wow... Missed this thread back in '08, but it sure has seen a resurrection! Hijacks aside, it's good to see a few of us are still around along with some new blood! Canucklehead and I have been delinquent in hosting tech days this year, but that's about to change! :-) You live in Cochrane now...

    CFR 2016 When, Where, Why & Who?

    I'm in! Hmmm... That's pretty early in June, but I guess with no mountain passes between here and there I shouldn't run into too much snow. What better way to start off the season than a couple of ButtBurners, eh? Only 1-1/2 hrs from Ottawa... maybe I'll check it out while there next week.

    CFR 2016 When, Where, Why & Who?

    Good on ya for choosing a location. I was going to say the Sept timing would likely cause it to be the first CFR I'd miss since 2009, but June... Now you're talking my language, and traditional CFR timing, again! :yahoo: Now I'll read the rest of this thread...

    CFR 2015 is still in Nelson, BC and is still July 16-19

    Rule #9 aside, we have the official register. It happened just like FastJoyRide claims. ;-) The FIRST week of September! :-P

    Planning Help Needed! Last minute, spontaneous, trip to Vermont

    We kinda made a spur of the moment decision to rent a motorcycle in Vermont after my pillion does some business in Ottawa. Renting a car to drive down to South Burlington where we will pick up a bike from MotoVermont for 3 days. Dates are October 3rd to 6th. Have nothing planned beyond the...

    Gen II Corbin Saddle

    I'm off to Montana tomorrow. I've received no money yet, still have one tire kicker, so the saddle is still available. It doesn't cost me anything to take it along, so I will have the Saddle packaged and ready to ship. If interested, you can quote your own shipping cost at UPS.com. The box is...
