The road to the top at Kitt Peak is in excellent shape & twisties deluxe! Another ride to not be missed. Add good Mex food and you got a real winner. Seeya there...

Joe and Cec, Seth, Donna and I will be out at our Lake Havasu Vacation home from Saturday AM 2/19 to Monday PM 1/21. We are in #354 at the Islander Resort, just call 480-440-4666. https://www.islanderrvresort.com/ I was going to send an e-mail to Big-Dan and Madeline, who live in LHC, that we were going to meet them for dinner.

https://weather.aol.com/forecast/todays/usa/arizona/chandler/id/85225 BUMP REMINDER! Two weeks from today we are riding to Marcela's Cafe for lunch and then up to Kitt Peak to make snow angels.

Hopefully Central Arizona will be warmer in two weeks, currently down to 37F here in Chandler and only a high of 49F is forecasted; Muy Peligro, way too dangerous to ride in this kind of shitty weather! What the Hell; this is like living in Owosso Fecking Michigan, or that silly little country North of Owosso!

Looking forward to hanging out with you again Joe ! Food, bikes & friends - That's living !

Cold enough here to bring out the heavy jacket & gloves here. Does bring to mind the township of Goatherding, Michigan doesn't it ? What kind of crazy lives like this ?

Robert My Friend, I am assuming this is a rhetorical question: But the answer is Bustanut joker, The Jackass!

 

[beemerdons]

Sounds like a great ride...never been to Kitt Peak before. See you then. Don, thanks for organizing.

Chuck, looking forward to riding with you too!

 

[beemerdons]

I had a great time last month and will definitely be there again... Seriously, snow angels? I have a 2 wheel phobia of snow. What is the chance there will be some on the road?

Eileen

Hello Eileen, Virtually none! The Kitt Peak Road is constantly in use and if there is a snowfall the previous night, it'll be plowed away by the time we get there. If we arrive during a snowfall: Mission Aborted!!!

Snow? Schmow ! ;D

You're right, I was just poking a stick at Barry to see if He was frozen solid or not !. . .

BTW... That second picture of the 3 bikes in the snow doesn't count. There are no tire tracks in that picture, looks like you got snowed on overnight ;-) Hats off to the driver of the GS in the top picture though, I wouldn't be doing that.

Hi Don - My great riding pal, Doris M., whom you saw at Nakusp, is flying into Yuma on Monday to stay with me for 10 days.. I have just purchased a beautiful '05 Concours in mint shape so that I have a bike to leave here each season and now Doris can ride too!

We will come up the 15th and stay somewhere near Chandler then join you on the ride. Looking fwd to it very much.

Kasey"
