I'll be there.

Kurt,

I will be there. Really looking forward to seeing everyone..... Jim

Hi Jim, if you're still interested in riding up together on the 8th give me a shout sometime..I am not a Gold Club member so can't private message you. But my cell # (six-0-5) eight-eight-0-nine-8-3-five.

Gotta be a McDonalds somewhere where you can recognize a lost soul, and show a rider the way!

6 more days to lift-off..:clapping:

Daily Rides

I am thinking 5:00 pm at the courthouse square across from the Harley T-shirt shop on Whiskey Row on the 8th. We can work out details for the rides at that time.

Kurt

Kurt, have you figured out day one and three ride order yet? Depending on the third day route, I could save a night hotel room on the 11th, and peel off to head back south on the last days ride (kind of like last year). It doesn't really matter....repeat - does not matter...but, just thinking ahead a little bit. I figure the Yarnell-Kirkland ride as day two as it has the shortest mileage. So, that leaves Jerome-Sedona-Camp Verde and Bagdad-Oatman for the 'book end' rides. Maybe the order of your text underneath the maps are the days rides? Not the order of the maps, but the text underneath. Again, this is just thinking about the last night in the hotel, and the order is totally up to you and the group. Looking forward to riding any and all of the days! :clapping: Any thoughts?

Thanks, Bill

Hi Bill,

I have been checking the weather forecast to determine the order and from what I see the temps will be pretty stable for the gathering. So Oatman Day 1 and Sedona/Clint's Well Day 3. You are right that Congress/Lunch in camp is Day 2. Burgers, beans and potato salad for lunch.

See you soon,

Kurt

Wow, thanks for the quick reply!

Yep, fly out Friday afternoon and will head north Saturday. Hope your camp ground stays dry this year! (ha)

Hope to see everyone again, and some new faces, at least for me.

Four Days and a wake-up!!!!!

 

[Rmitchell55]

From the long range weather reports, it looks like there will be light rain on Saturday afternoon and almost all day on Sunday. I guess it will be prudent to bring rain gear.

Long range weather forecast in AZ is about as good as the cashier promising that she will sell you the powerball winner. That being said, I will be bringing my rain gear just to be safe.

See ya soon Ray,

I'm going to miss out on the potato salad this year. Paying The Piper for going on a 2-month vacation which was an adventure never to be forgotten.

Sorry to Say

Kurt,

Regretfully, I need to cancel my attending the gathering this year. I have been scheduled for reconstruction foot surgery and the timing for that is right up against the dates of the trip. Just too much on my plate. I will sorely miss seeing everyone and enjoying the rides you have planned. Wishing y'all safe and enjoyable riding.

I hope your foot is not too sorely. Good luck with your reconstruction surgery and the healing process.

Take-off tomorrow

Test packed my carry-on luggage tonight to make sure I can get everything I want in the bag that will fit under the seat.

Success!

Fly out from SD and land in AZ tomorrow afternoon. Hope we have a good turn out Saturday at Whiskey Row and the riding days.
