There's apparently a Two Pelicans Steakhouse just east of Eagle Eye Rd. and a Maricela's at the intersection.

Many Thanks for the additional information BB, I'd called Uri Schumm because we all had ridden there as a Club 5+ years ago!

What a fantastic turnout yesterday for AZ Beemers and Southwest FJR Forum Members.

We had so many riders turn out that I was unable to compile an attendance roster for this.

Was a cold start and between Wickenburg and Aguila it actually was looking like rain coming.

Many of the BMW F800/650GS models were in attendance and a number of 2013 Yamaha FJR's.

Back Road Bob and AZ Cowboy exchanging GS observations.

Brian "El Jefe" Boles observing the assembled AZ Beemers and Southwest FJR Forumites.

Long time AZ Beemers Members Jim and Tarsa's BMW K1200 Light Truck.

Jim, my Miss Donna and Tarsa warming themselves in the sunshine before cold ride to Aguila.

Plenty of BMW K bikes were in attendance, both in four and six cylinder configurations.

Our AZ Beemers and SW FJR Forum lunch was held at Coyote Flats Roadhouse in Aguila.

Food was very good, Papa Chuy had a patty melt and Donna a hamburger; great onion rings.

Tarsa and Jim waiting for their lunch.

Five Canadian AZ Beemers rode up to Yuma to meet up with us, here's Dashbaw in the middle.

Naturally the Canucks were seated at the bar, where else would you expect Frostbacks to be!

With size of our large group we just about took over every chair and table in the dining room.

In this picture Dr. Bob is saying to BB: Let's just buy FJR's instead of riding this German Junk!

We didn't even miss morning NFL game, they had many TV's with the Ravens - Colts game on.

From AZ Beemers Club Member Brian Boles:


We had a nice ride over to Aguila and arrived around lunchtime. At first, we were trying to find some of the resturants mentioned in an earlier post, but they had all closed down. The only place open was Coyote Flats, but it turned out to be OK.

On the way home, we took the rather entertaining Eagle Eye Mountain Road. Here's the namesake mountain.

And an up close to see where the name comes from.

It's a fun little road across the desert foothills, especially when you are trying to catch up with the group that didn't stop when you stopped to take pictures. Unfortunately, you hit the I-10 slab quickly and have to slog back through traffic to get home.
