Is there any group that regularly meets and rides from East Mesa/Apache Junction area?
I'm in Gilbert and been looking for other Spyder owners. Weekends are best for me and my wife.
Anyone interested?Quote:

I am located in S. Tempe and could join any east side Spyders for a ride. Wifey also has her license and is chomping at the bit to go riding as well.
I am in Prescott. Really nice riding weather here now. I am going north to route 66 tomorrow. Hope the rain holds off.
You shouldn't really be bragging about your wonderful weather. We have guns. :)Quote:

Yes, The rain can come hard and fast. 2 weeks ago we had almost 3" in 40 minutes in the back yard. It is just now starting to be good riding weather up here. Not a fan for riding in 100 degree weather.
Hi my wife and I ride a spyder. We live in far East Mesa right off the 60. We belong to several riding groups but would enjoy an East valley Spyder group. Let's plan a meeting to get the ball rolling.

We had a pretty ferocious storm several evenings ago too. The wind is what causes the most damage.Quote:

Several times I just stayed up north past dark but too many weekend idiots on the roads. Always try to beat the drunks home.
howdy,
In Phoenix and would like to see a group get going. Although I get out a bit in the summer, fall is coming.
Thanks
Ok... It's official. I just started The SouthWest Spyder Association Club in Gilbert, AZ. If you interested, please post a reply.
We're in. John and Valerie, TempeQuote:

We are interested and live in Casa Grande.Quote:

Here's a link to the page. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/3385...f=group_header
There's a SRA-Superstitions chapter in the SE corner of the Phoenix metro area; has anyone thought of joining up with them?

I live off signal butte and the 60 so near great start up locations. If you want me to I will post a ride in about 2 weeks to get the ball rolling. . I belong to the other groups also , but would like an East valley group.

I don't think there can be too many local ryding groups. It's not like they are exclusive. The more options for folks the better I think.Quote:

We may be kicking around an Old Tucson run this Sunday. Nothing firm yet but...

Looks like rain on Sunday. I am open for any day. Don't work anymore so nothing to do but ride (and chores SHE assignes me)
There's a group on Facebook, Southern Arizona Spyder Ryders. We spent this last weekend with them at the Sierra Motorsports open house party in Sierra Vista. Great fun group.

North Phoenix, 51/101 area. I can get just about anywhere to meet up.Quote:

Thanks, I will have my wife join up. Spent a week in Sierra VIsta many years ago....Quote:

Is anyone planning on going to the Southern Utah Ryde-in? Weather should be good by then.

I would be interested in a meet up with a group of east valley riders. Since i'm retired and i have no special day or time to ride. The spyder is fun to ride but its better with other ryders.
Can't wait to hear from someone else that rides. 602 448 9374
Me too. I'm in South Gilbert, and still work so weekday rides are out.
Yes, I would be interested, but I'm in Apache Junction and I'm retired also.
I am very near Apache Junction. At 80th and E. Broadway in the Fountain of the Sun community. Typically I don't ride this time of year because of the heat. But I think I could be persuaded to maybe do an early morning Breakfast ride.....? When I started this thread a few years ago, I had a 2014 RTL. That Spyder now resides in its new owners' web. I switched to a Goldwing trike. Retired for many years so any day works for me. Open to suggestions.....Quote:
