Are you planning on stopping in Jerome or just riding through?

I'm still not sure if we will make it (work sucks) but just looking for a meet up place in case we do.

Also made it back home to Tucson in one piece. Pretty good dust storm around Casa Grande but missed most of the rain. Man, does this thing suck gas at 80! On the back way up Sat, at 60-65, I got around 35mpg... on the freeway today more like 25! (Extra tank is almost a necessity on the X-way!)
A big thanks to Spydergirl for organizing; and to all those who came for making it a good day.

It was FANTASTIC riding with you all today!! The weather was great, the ride and route was beautiful, and the company was the best. I am glad to hear you made it home safely. I can't wait to see the photos and the video(s) that Mad Matt took through the canyon.

We hit Chapel of the Holy Cross in Sedona on our way back down and tomorrow we are going to do some touristy stuff around Sedona including a sunset Jeep tour. Tuesday we'll probably go and park on the corner in Winslow, Wednesday hit Slide Rock and Devil's Bridge, then Thursday head up to see our property and go to the Grand Canyon. Friday we'll be heading down to the oven....er... I mean Phoenix to visit some friends.

I am going to miss this place when we leave, I want to live here so badly!!

It was great finally meeting some of my fellow Arizona SpyderLovers! Thanks Spyder Girl for putting this together. My wife and I had a great day riding and hanging out with everyone.

I will post a link here to the videos as soon as I get a chance to upload them.

Thanks for the ride

Thanks to Spydergirl for putting the ride together, and to Mad Matt for the video. I was waiting for our ride to see which modifcations I wanted to do, and how they went together. Learned alot and met some great people. If you guys come to Havasu we'll do free Segway tours and have some fun Touring the London Bridge area. Regards, Dan :2thumbs:
