This thread is to invite anyone that is interested in joining us for a few days of riding and visiting in the White Mountains of Arizona. Sept 30 - Oct 4. Kevin and Mary and My wife Sally and I will be camping a few miles north of Greer, AZ. There is lodging available in Greer and Springerville/Eager or a little farther away in Showlow. Average temps in the area are 73/42 and with the elevations we may have some really nice fall colors along the way.
I have 3 rides mapped out.
Ride One - Oct. 1 is the Coronado Trail.
Ride Two - Oct 2 Alpine/Big Lake
Ride Three - Oct 3 Roosevelt Loop
Two of the rides are full day trips and can be adjusted on the fly. The one ride I would suggest completing as mapped would be the Coronado Trail as the most spectacular portion is near Morenci and the highway goes through the open pit mine in Morenci.
The Roosevelt Loop ride would be easy to adjust by riding to Globe for lunch and back to camp. Most of these miles move pretty fast as the speed limit is 65 for a good portion of the route.
Just thought we would put the info out there for anyone that is interested.
