I will be in ABQ from 7/12 til 7/15 to look into what all this hype is about over this thing you call The Crest.  

Who doesn't have a job, and can play tour guide for a day?  [moto]

Making a point to be there on a Tuesday night, as well.  [drink]

I'm starting my job on the 12th, so I'm out for tour guide...  But IN for Tuesday!

ya i cant be tour guide either....

and totally down for the toosday shennigans [beer]

Out,Bubba...sorry.

I might be persuaded to play tour guide for a small fee.   [drink]  Unlike Stuart, I have some vacation time accrued!  Besides...who'd want to work with him all week...not me, for sure!   ;)

and you think I **want** to work with you....    ever.  [roll]











 [cheeky]

here's the self-guided tour.

once you've found yourself in the Land of Entrapment, take I-40 East from Albuquerque.

In Tijeras, take Highway 14 North.

After about 2 1/2 miles, Coffee at Dawn will be on your left.

Stop there, have some java, maybe a pastry. 

Another motorcyclist is sure to stop there.

Ask said motorcyclist to take you up to the Crest.

In the unlikely event that no other motorcyclist shows up, head about 3 more miles North on Highway 14. Sandia Crest Road (NM 536) will be on your left  (there will also be plenty of signs).  Turn left and head up the hill.

Rinse.

Repeat.

 ;D

The above is not far from the truth for the very local roads, but there's a LOT of great, great stuff 1-2 hours outside of town!

He only said he wanted to see "The Crest".

 ;D

I have absolutely nothing to add to this thread except to state the fact that the title sounds eerily like something Steve Jobs does to unsuspecting iGroupies when he takes them back to his lair.

Thank you for the instruction, Mr. Max.  As always, you are so helpful.  [thumbsup]


This is why I want a tour guide.  Wish you had a day off while I was there.  [moto]

 [drink] Tuesday evening will have to suffice.

Got the plan together now...

Should be arriving monday evening.

Have meetings Tuesday and Wednesday morning.

We will need some help boxing stuff and loading the truck Wed afternoon and Thursday, and looking for someone to do a move-out cleaner.

Morning ride?

See you all tuesday night at ?

Actually, PJ and his band are playing at Scalo on Nob Hill starting at 7:00.  I'd vote we have a Wednesday night Ducnight this week, if nobody has any objection.

Will you have a bike here or do you just want to see the crest? you could take the worlds longest tramway from the ABQ side and look down the crest road....but
if you have a bike any opportunity....well....I am always up for tearing that road apart

I will be with bike on this trip.  [moto]

Also, bidness parner has m800.  [moto] 

Lets do it! Send me a PM I can get away for a few hours

same deal goes that I had for Randy's trip.  $100 cash to anyone who gets Bick so drunk he passes out and you write on his face with a Sharpie.

 ;D [thumbsup] [drink] [drink]

Would you pay if Bick wrote on himself?

Please call me again and let me know about the truck..   I should have some time.  I dont know what each day brings.. I just take it as it comes.. :)

That was one time, a very long time ago.  Let it go already!!!  [roll]

Will be making more trips to CoSpgs  [moto]

I am craving some South of the Boarder type cuisine.

Anyone else hungry?

Se Senor 

I was told Sadie's is pretty good, and I think I can find that.

@ 6:30?

See you there.

Check PM

I went there, looked around, asked around, you're not around.
Off I go.
 

I was @ 20 minutes late.  Sorry.

No worries, stuck around til 7, guess we just missed each other.  Ended up at Zinc. 

any reviews of Sadie's?

Sadie's is OK, if you want the good stuff (not to mention their margaritas) go to El Pinto ;)

I know that.

Was looking for Bick's impression.

Silly me  ;D Just trying to help out :-*

His Bick-ness:

Was a HOOT riding and hangin' out with you this trip.  Can't wait to do it again in Ouray!  [thumbsup]

Happy trails your Bickness, sorry I missed you. How was the Sadies slop last night? Concert tonight rocked. Carlos was in the zone fo sho. Thanks for looking out for the ladies purses & hanging out after the show.  And Aberham & the folks at Seasons for the free food & drink before the show.

It's all about coaching, TDF & GP tomorrow for me. Oh, and Shanley is baking a cake for the races...Me happy.

I knew nothing of Steve's (Moto Authority) get together. Ahhhh advertising, aint it a beautiful thang? 
 

it was good to ride and hang with ya for a bit bick...until this weekend  [beer]

keep us posted when u guys are coming down

Yeah...what the Mouse said.  I got the pleasure of following the Bick's smoothness for a few miles between Jemez Springs and San Ysidro, and it was fun to simply watch the man ride.  Thanks for the  [moto], Bick.   :)

and no one was willing to collect the $$ by getting him drunk and writing on his face?  i am sooo disappointed

were saving that for you  :-*

we have a pool going [laugh]

Had a great time.  Thanks to all that contributed.  [thumbsup] [moto]

On my way home, I did stop off in Trinidad to see DDGM.

They say the surgery went well.

So good that the best hospital of this kind is so convenient for him.  ;D

I'm not trying to defend the lad at all, but how did you know that was the hospital for those types of procedures?

 ;D

What kind of procedure do you think he had?  :-X

You're the one that went to visit him.  You tell me.  ;)

SNIP SNIP.. :)
