Music, can you please post the address that gets us close to the meetup spot? Are we still going to go to Wickenburg, or are we going the other direction? What about lunch and such? Let's go ahead and put the entire thing together and get a head-count, if that's ok.

I figured we would have more rides after last year's ride, but did not. In the meantime, I was poking around the net and came across the Arizona Peace Trail. It is a 750 mile loop trail that is located in the 3 westernmost Arizona counties including Yuma (where I live), La Paz, and Mohave Counties. Of course, doing the entire loop is a vacation/commitment (about a week's time), but I figured we could do a section round trip for a day's ride, or even attempt an overnight sometime in the later fall or wintertime. Or more Phoenix region rides. Once the weather cools off, there are a lot of places to explore in AZ.

Maybe Wendy's at 16859 Bell rd, but that's like 7 miles from the coordinates. Unless I'm in the completely wrong area. J The coordinates mentioned earlier are 33°39'40.95"N 112°31'45.81"W Just copy and pasted into google maps to find what I think may be the start.. Last edited by superduder; 10-14-2020 at 12:04 AM.

I have a link to my Garmin Map Share of the Wickenburg meetup location
Let me know if you can view this ok or not. Click on the Tracks name for the Wickenburg route.. There is a couple other routes on there that lead over to table mesa rd then down to Cave Creek and a route just upto Lake Pleasant. https://share.garmin.com/RadPaul |

The Garmin file takes forever to load, but it finally came up. The Lat/Long coordinates are actually much faster to get with Google. Everything looks good! I know the Ural will do the same route we hit last time, and there's a really nice hole-in-the-wall joint in Wickenburg called the Horseshoe Cafe. Maybe we can eat there if burgers and fries won't hit the spot (but they have burgers and fries, too). Here's a link: https://horseshoecafe.com/?fbclid=Iw...EsCTQ-CP8zQLO4

Since I'm going to be manhandling the Ural out over the trails, I'd much prefer to do the route we did last time, and then have some lunch in Wickenburg. TJ, Culcune and I can all flat-track it back to my place from there. My vote is for the Wickenburg route.
