Woops, this was supposed to be a Sat ride not a Friday ride. So here is the correct one.
This will be the usual ride up Mt Lemmon to the top for cookies or what not :) Please as always remember no same lane passes UNLESS the person in front of you has acknowledged you and waived you past and absolutely no passing on the right.
3 quests? gather 2 speeding tickets, 3 pieces of pizza, and capture the rare lifeflight helicopter as a mount!
once you play enough RPGs, your fingers are trained I guess...
A friend of mine owns a cabin on Mt. Lemmon and he says the sheriffs hang out at the overlooks (like Geology Vista) and look down at the lower roads just waiting for speeders to come around blind curves.
Not sure we'll be able to get cookies and what not at the top this early
Happy I didnt get arrested! After they let Matt go they read me the riot act for about 5 mins and then decided to take the cuffs off me, gave me my firearm back, and a nice ticket for going 45+.
Didn't RSVP for this one, just decided to show up at the top. Aside from a rider going down and cops out the Yang, it was a good ride. I don't know why they decided to pull you guys over and leave Will and I alone.
Cody, how do you define a not-so-good ride?
Rider going down, cops pulling over and cuffing guys, tickets being issued.
Was Dipalma on duty today? Heard he got reassigned off the mountain for numerous complaints of unethical practices and harrasment
...actually, Palma is no longer with the police department...for numerous reasons....
.....someone dying or getting seriously injured....a bike getting impounded and someone actually going to jail. I avoided a ticket on five separate occasions today and had a great solo ride up the mountain....so ASIDE from the negatives the ride wasn't that bad.
yeah, the weather was great and traffic wasn't too bad, it seems like the bicycles are multiplying though...
Wait a minute...when did the cops show up? I figured they would after the way the front of the group was passing cars and cyclists....but i didn't see any on my way down. Someone explain please.
I don't remember anyone doing anything illegal. There were a lot of motorcycles up there that morning, must have been them... perhaps the cops got called because of the bicyclists hogging the entire road and causing a dangerous situation.
When the downed biker and his bike were loaded and we were headed down everyone stopped at windy point. Well when we left there as we headed through the little area that has some parking pullouts for picnic areas and hiking trails, well there was a sheriff sitting at the first parking area and as soon as a group of passed he pulled matt over and let a few others just ride by. As I rode by he signaled me to pull over. Not sure why he singled me and matt out.
Rob, thank you for checking in with us. I am very happy to hear that it is just bruising and nothing broken. When you are ready to start working on the bike give Dietz Racing a call at 520-638-7696. Kelly and Dan are great people to work with.
Glad to hear you are okay Rob. It was great meeting all of you. The ride was great and the weather was perfect early in the morning. Hopefully I can make it out to another ride soon.
Good to hear you are ok Rob! Now...I wanna see that video if you have it edited and uploaded somewheres.
Blair....I have video of you riding. Gonna upload it to youtube sometime soon and I will get you a link to the vid.
We loaded the video on my wife's laptop when we got to the gas station. The video ends on the turn before he goes down :(
Hi Eddie, just take a cpl mins to look over the Safety section. Other than that just show up and have fun.
