What's the best way to start off the New Year? Why a RIDE of course! And even better - a ride for Mmmmmm.... good mexican food.

So here we go: A ride to Sofia's in Gila Bend.

Meet in Maricopa at the Circle K gas station located on the southwest corner of AZ 347 (John Wayne Pkwy) and AZ 238. Google map clicky HERE.

Kickstands up at 11am!

After lunch, return to metro area via north on old Highway 80.

Come join us roll the New Year in properly and as a bonus watch mi bastard step-pappy beemerdons eat enough Mexican food that could feed FIVE Mexican families!

I had the opportunity of watching BeemerDons do a high dive into a plate of enchiladas when we were in Copper Canyon.
It was not pretty. :o

Oh man I would SO be there if I hadn't already committed to a New Year's Day ride with Jerry White, who was NOT killed with a Bowie knife to the ribs. :huh: And I am glad to see that people on the forum are starting to understand what a reasonable KSU time is. My work here is almost done. :D

JB, I see my advice is working! :huh: :lol:

Skooter, if only I had a healthy FJR to ride, I'd be there.
Hey, you have like 23 of them Feejers in your stable,
how about helping a bud out?

Good to see you around here Kasey! At the last Tech Day some of the PNW peeps were wondering where you've been keeping yourself.

I'm sorry, Don. But that would add about 47 pee stops to the trip, ........and I don't have that much time. Posted Image

George, I'd have thought y'all would've come up with some sorta catheter setup for Niehart by now.
That's what we did it for SacramentoMike down here in CA. You'd see him do his little shiver
every half-hour or so as he rode along.
.....Am I sharing too much here?

So here we go: A ride to Sofia's in Gila Bend.


Huh? Been to Sophia's in Gila Bend once this year already for din din (I think it was in March?). My suggestion is; stay away from the C-Food!

I thought that the Space Age Cafe was great for B-Fast!

Can't make it this time, but thought I'd expell some CO2 on it!
