Well maybe sometime in your neck of the woods setup a ride. I know It is long shot to plan to attend from out of state. I would have the same difficultly. I'll do some video of the ride and our bikes when I can. The weather has gotten warm for the weekend. With a expected low of 62 degrees in the early Sat morning. It will be around 70 by the time the ride starts. A little warm coming back to the staging area with a high expected of 84 degrees. Wickenburg is slightly higher elevation so going there the weather will be pretty good.

Well we have the perfect place just north of me. 2600+ acres with 40+ miles of trails. RV parking, cabins to rent or rough it in a tent. All off road and open to ATV's, UTV,s and bikes.

The weather there sounds like typical fall or spring weather here. Perfect riding weather for me. lol This year I think we skipped fall. Went from mid 90's to 30's and 40'. Yesterday it was in the 80's. Today 60's and next week it will be in the low 30' and 40's.

I'm sure you guys will have fun. And yes please shoot plenty videos and post.

Looks like I'll be removing layers out of my jacket as the day progresses

Wishing all of the riders and helpers a safe and fun journey today

I'm over in the next state of New Mexico and was hoping to attend but work commitments got in the way ( people shortages ) so could not get yesterday off to get out that way

I do hope this type of ride can be repeated all over so that we might meet fellow chinariders and experience some different areas of the country

Keep the shiny side up but most importantly have fun.

With good planning I think rides all over is doable. I guess labor shortage is at a 50 year low. maybe next time for a group ride.

Made it home without serious issues. Thanks again guys for your help and patience. Alex

Glad to hear it, Alex. It was great to get to meet you today, and I hope that you still had fun in spite of the troubles. Keep us posted on how it goes working through the run/idle issues.

NZBrakelathes has your parts. He is still in the area, so I figured it would be best to have him take them.

I'm happy that you made it home ok and everyone stayed safe on the trail! This was a great adventure ride! Even with issues we as a group fixed and made it all work out in the end. Thank you for going on this ride! I have some video to post later.
