Crawdaddy 96 Posted April 2, 2013 I only know of 2 people who committed/made reservations for the proposed "Club Ride" Screw it.........I'm going to bail/cancel and defer it til TBD next Fall......I need to switch focus and prep water toys for Spring/Summer deployment......plus, Kathy is now heading out with me that weekend.....it would be "politically unwise" for me to blow off spending time with Kathy ( ) and also blow off taking care of house/water toy chores to ride motos with a group of....."2" .....that would also leave me ill prepared for our return 2 weeks later to play in the river with the kids So, stay tuned for the next opportunity......hopefully more folks will jump on the bandwagon in the Fall......

dstss 27 Posted April 3, 2013 I was all set to join until my riding budget got cut after my wife's job took a hit with the sequestration cuts. Thanks for trying to organize this and hopefully you will try again in the fall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crusty Posted July 10, 2013 Suppose a guy had a big bike- is there an interesting way to ride to Bullhead City? Even if it took a day or two? You could ride to Barstow and then take Mojave Rd. for ~165 miles to the CO. River I did that on my big adventure bike (XR 680L), loved the ride, left Carlsbad at 4:00 Was an easy day, when I got there, I couldn't wait to get home, though!

I have some vehicle options as well, happy to haul some bikes... But this post looks kinda quiet. Let me / us know, i will need to make a reservation.

97xr400r 122 Posted October 10, 2013 Any insight into tent camping (IE boondocking) in the area, close to the river would be cool? I've never been out that way so I'm clueless. If I get my bike going and dialed in time I would love to join, would probably be a friday night bonzi out and sunday afternoon bail if the stars align. Thanks for the grand tour offer!! :good:/>/> Edit(10-20-13): The xr is feeling better than ever. Got the engine back together and all seems to be well, rode ol Betsy 30 miles today, forgot how fun it is! wwoOHHHa! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
