Prescott AZ Fun Day
- Thread starter OMoaC
- Start date
What a great weekend riding. Celebrating the Old Mans Bday, The United States Marine Corps Birthday (The Corps has precedence FYI) and Veterans day with some awesome weather, kick butt routes, great friend's new and old. Friday and Saturday bench racing, tall tales and adult beverage sipping (No bike moved when the sipping started). Man I love this club and this area. 4 states repping, AZ, NV, CA and CO thanks to Andre. There were some I didn't get to see but knew they were there. Missed ya! Man I hate red and blue lights!
I had a great weekend, although I didn't catch up with the Old Man. I did get to meet Brad (BE) as he stayed at the same place I did. Friday night he knocked on my door 'cause he saw the COG sticker on the C-10. We split a (half-size) bottle of Clyde May's bourbon and discovered we grew up 1 town over from each other back in Mass.
He also helped me debug the coolant leak I had on Saturday morning, sticking around before he headed home. Fortunately just a loose hose clamp. I didn't get to run the loop y'all did, but I did run over to Payson and back.
I got to ride down and back with Doug (4kless).
Also, I found out that the Barley Hound restaurant has a liquor selection at the bar with which I am happily compatible.

Excellent weekend to ride! Prescott is a great place to ride to and start off from for day rides.
Glad to have met you Caffeine Man (it is a small world indeed) and your bourbon friend Clyde May's :beerchug:
Hope to catch up with the group for riding at the next event.

What part of Mass? I grew up in Adams.

Glad we could help Tom.
Dan and I have always been the unselfish, self sacrificing type. You know, "on point, tip of the spear, take one for the team, (dumb enough to be out in front)". :-[ Still can't believe we road away from that unscathed. Thank God we were dealing with what had to undoubtedly be the coolest cop in Arizona.It was great to see you again and meet your son. That's a great kid you have there sir!
OMC, it was a pleasure to celebrate yours and the Marine Corps birthdays with you. Looking forward to the next adventure.
Kieth. Sorry you missed out on the elk steak. Hope it wasn't to bad reheated.
Micheal. Thanks for the pics. I think "the one" may have to go on the wall. :great:
I had a great weekend. It was good to see old friends and make some new ones too. Look forward to seeing everyone again on the next
go around.
Dan, next time we head out, please make sure Mrs. Charby has plenty of bail money and a full tank in the car........just in case.

Great to meet some of you for the first time and touch base again with those I met at Lake Isabella. Great weekend of riding and bench racing and I have to say many of the roads were great. Since we are new to the southwest, a return trip is probably in order with the spousal unit to explore Sedona and Jerome in more detail. The road from Prescott to US93 via Bagdad was wonderful (as OMC had indicated): sweepers, twisties and roller coaster fun on Rt97. Alos a definite do-again. Thanks to CaffeineMan for the company on the way over and back; most enjoyable.

I wish you all to skip the experience of great relief riding into 32F from 19F (yep, again! Flagstaff, AZ was cold at about 6AM).
Did you make it home OK? It was great to meet you in Prescott. I look forward to seeing you again at more COG events! I usually wind up somewhere in Colorado during the summer months. Maybe we could meet up sometime!!
I must admit I was seriously depressed C'ing that VW bus in my rear view holding tight in the canyon (a classic bus BTW). Dude had skills. After being passed by a prius while following (Big Tom Knows the story) awhile ago, It was at that point I needed to pull the trigger. Well......Bye.
