Group Ride: Sedona -- Saturday, October 24th (morning)

[Dietrich]

Bump for an awesome ride.  Anyone else in?  My chain is on it's way out so I'm going to carry a grapling hook & coil of rope bungeed to my back seat in case it breaks and drops on the road.  Whoever passes me don't mind the slight tug.  If I can work it like water skiing I might pass you in a couple corners, but don't worry, it'll only be temporary.  [moto]

I'm in for this Saturday ride up thru Wickenburg, Prescott, and Sedona, even though we are returning down I17
-D, I've got some cotton twine that can be used.

me three

[brickdogg]

I am likely going to make it as well, though I will likely not make it all the way to Sedona with you guys as I have work at 1:30. I will bring my work clothes with me however so I can just head right there from where ever I make it to with you.

Looking forward to a fun first ride with you folks!

BTW:   JEROMATHERAPY is this weekend.  Tons of bands playing.  Might be some traffic, but we should definitely plan to spend some time there.  It'll be awesome!!!

[Dietrich]

Ryan - Do you have more info on the bands?  Might make parking tricky depending on the timing.  We're leaving early enough that hopefuly we can miss a lot of the traffic, etc. 

Michael - Did you have meal/gas stops planned out?  I figured some coffee/quick bite at the meetup spot if I can get there by 6, but we'll need some breakfast maybe in Prescott?  With a decent size group that's an hour at least.  I know a couple spots.  Light lunch in Sedona? 

If we gas at Waffle House (there's a station right there) we can make it all the way to Prescott, about 85 miles. Gas in Prescott.  Then Gas in Sedona ~65 miles.  Then maybe stop somewhere along I-17 on the way home to break up that ride? (a bit over 100 miles back to Phoenix.)

I have to be back in town at a reasonable time. Don't think I will be sticking around in Jerome for the festivities. If we get breakfast in Prescott, we should skip food at Waffle house otherwise we will not be leaving the valley till closer to 8:00. Also, I agree that a quick bite in Sedona would be better than Jerome as there are only a handful of restaurants and all are mind numbingly slow.

[rule62]

It's an all weekend type of thing.  I don't have a set list.  My office-partner is going up Friday night.  I agree that it'll take forever if we want to eat there, but we should definitely stop there for a while.  Stretch, listen to a band, taunt some hippies, grab a root-beer, etc...

It's so awesome, that another ride was going to receive an award for it but Kanye West jumped in and said...
"You've got an awesome ride, and I'ma let you finish... but the Group Ride to Sedona on October 24 is the AWESOMEST ride of all time!!!"

well played

IZ might be joining in too. 

Just trying to figure out the source of this ongoing electrical problem!  It was fine for a couple weeks but that damn 15 fuse started blowing again a couple days ago.

Just jump the fuse with a piece of solid copper wire and see what smokes! jk
I would be willilng to help diagnose tonight or Friday eve, but you would have to head my way.  It has to be something simple.  Chafed wire somewhere.
