Time to give this ride another try. Take I-17 North to Bumble Bee exit, turn left then follow the road to Bumble Bee General store. We will meet at the store then continue a short distance to stage.

Unfortunatly, it just grows larger with time. I cannot see past events though. I may be able to help you if you tell me when it first appeared.

HEY,
I Know its late.. but my other plans just fell apart.
are there any 2 wheelers going. I have never been out there, what kind of ride is it? Fast? Technical? Easy?
Let me know.. it will be a trek for me.. but I have the hall pass already.

It is slow and technical. Trail is rated as Difficult. No two wheelers are going but you are welcome if you can make it.

They video has been produced. I took all the video footage from this ride and from the Woodpecker ride and I made a nice long 1hour DVD. I don't have a web server up right now that can handle the transfer load of a long video so I am unable to put it on the net. I do however have a solution to the problem. For the price of shipping, like 5.00 I can mail out a copy to the you guys that were on the ride or I can just give it to you on the next ride. Then I will sell a copy to who ever else wants one that was not on the video. I think I am going to start my own video business. lol The video footage I have taken lately is just down right entertaining.
