Andrew: My Arizona FJR riding comrades from this site are SkooterG, vectervp1, Badcat and FJRobert. I used the Ride Planning section to set up our Zonies run to Death Valley last January and that was very well attended. I am looking forward to meeting Richard - Fairlaner and his Southern California FJR Crew in Flagstaff on the evening of July 25; I will be riding up with them to Park City where I will be rooming with mi amigo Arturo Montoya.
As one of my best riding buddies, I introduced him to my long road M/C Expeditions into Mexico, I have to defend SkooterG's riding abilities. On the six runs south of the border with Greg we have racked up 12,000 kilometers and he never once pulled a hare brained move out on the road; remarkable for a Navy squid. The only dicey incident was in Cantina Zapata in Guerrero *****, Baja California Sur when he was putting the full court press on Catia, the sixteen year old niece and barmaid of the owner Miguel. Miguel was keeping one eye on Marbach grinding up against his niece and the other on the single shot 16 gauge scattergun that he had mounted on the backbar. As an former US Army soldier the hairs were standing up on the back of my neck, I figured I would toss a barstool at Miguel if he drew down a bead on GM. Luckily, a pack of thirsty braceros entered the cantina and drew Miguel's attention away form SkooterG!
Jesu Cristo, she was only dieciseis! To top it off, on our return trip from San Jose del Cabo "Lover Boy" insisted on stopping in GN to ply Catia with his romantic charms once again. Que lastima. Mi vato loco SkooterG, "El Pendejo"!
