Oh the Humanity, Forum Administrator Ignacio shamelessly drinking the purple BMW Kool Aid!

Ignacio standing next to Papa Chuy Viejo's beloved Miss Lucy Liu.

Cruiser Greg standing next to his machine and Iggy was riding SkooterG's new BMW R1200GS. Fast Jack's blue FJR also. (sorry about the poor focus, I was eating a burrito and taking a picture at the same time!)

A much clearer shot of Fast Jack's FJR and Skoot's GS.

Found a FANTASTIC place to eat in Ajo, AZ; Marcelo's Bakery & Cafe; Killer Enchiladas and Tamales! Best Mexican rice and frijoles I've ever had, better than in Mexico!

The Boys wolfing down our la Comida Mexicana!

Look at the smile on Fast Jack's face, you can tell he LOVED his lunch! Chomping down on those delicious burritos!

One of our destinations was Organ Pipe National Monument next to the Mexican border; incredibly beautiful desert scenery and mountain ranges in the National Park.

75 degrees in the Arizonan Sonora Desert and perfect riding conditions, with no traffic on a Monday!

The happy new BMW R1200GS Owner, FJR Forum Admin Greg "SkooterG" Marbach; a confirmed Kool Aid drinker!!!

Fast Jack took a 20 mile spin on Skooty's new GS. Here he's telling Greg: "Shove this piece of Kraut Krap up your Ass!"

It was a 350 mile loop for Papa Chuy and Cruiser Greg, we turned Northward at Quijotoa, AZ; we both had dinner dates that evening. But, Ignacio, SkooterG and Fast Jack continued on to Kitt Peak Observatory, so those three lads had a 450 mile loop in the Arizona desert. Eat your hearts out, Owosso Jackass and Wheaton, Illinois!

Thanks Don, just what I needed.

Looking out the window, I see rain - snow mix, and a street piled high with sand - salt mix.

airboss, If that white crap and liquid sunshine gets to you, jump a jet and fly to Phoenix; bring Wheatie with you! Great M/C roads in Arizona and I've got a fleet of bikes.

Piff, I call a foul. No Way Scooter has a bike that clean. If it IS his bike tell him to go find some dirt, he looks like some city slicker on that clean MBW or whatever it is :p

 
Great pics beemerdons! Im in Phoenix also, and although I dont have pics the wifey and I did about 300 miles last weekend int he same great weather ;) headed up the back way to Prescott...real nice ride!

 
We are going on our 5th day of rain here in San Diego. It's like living in fucking Oregon again.

I got my bike back together the night before the first rain rolled in. Not fair.

You guys look like a bunch of bad Mad Max biker movie characters. :p

Looked like fun Papa Chuy! Weather looks great in AZ, right no it sucks in SoCal. It's been raining for 5 straight days, no let up at all, just steady rain. Tomorrow we finish the FJR-ark. SHould be fun loading all the animals. :D

Thanks for sharing and taking us on a virtual "dry" ride. ;)

Welcome from Chandler!

 
Don, you F%@#er!!! It's been pouring rain here for most of a week now. I thought maybe you'd been getting some too (rain, that is :p ), so I opened this post anticipating that it was a cry for sympathy. Clean bikes? Two FJR Forum Admins on BMWs in winter sunshine, and one sells them? WTF?!? :unsure:

exskibum: Sadly, Life isn't Fair My Friend! I've my own cross to bear, Dr. Rich is younger than I am; Thank God, at least Niehart is older than Papa Chuy and I'm better looking than Fairlaner!

Say, where do you and BikerGeek99 buy those Snugglies like I see on TV? I may need to get a set. "North of 40?" WTF! RaYzerman19, you're NORTH OF 60!!!
