TAKING
THE
LONG
ROAD
TO
TOMBSTONE |
Told
by
Jeanette
Banta Canadians
love
to
ride
long
distances
|
|
| |
|
|
Canadians
love
to
ride
long
distances
because
to
go
anywhere
around
the
province
of
British
Columbia
you
need
a
“bagger”
and
a
packed
lunch.
If
there
was
a
prize
for
furthest
distance
traveled
to
the
Annual
Tombstone
Weekend
Run,
the
Banta’s
would
surely
win.
It
took
us
850
miles
to
ride
from
Apache
Junction
to
Tombstone.
Having
great
riding
weather
forecast
for
Tombstone
prompted
us
to
leave
early,
on
Wednesday,
and
go
on
a
circle
tour,
keeping
in
mind
our
destination
was
Tombstone
Friday
afternoon.
Our
decision
to
ride
scenic
routes
took
us
thru
Fountain
Hills,
the
Carefree
Hwy
and
Wickenburg.
The
first
night
stay
was
Kingman
on
RT66.
Next
morning
was
on
to
Oatman
to
feed
the
burros.
Next
was
RT95
thru
Lake
Havasu
City,
Parker
along
the
Colorado
River,
Quartzite
and
finally
Yuma
for
our
second
night
stay.
In
just
2
days
we
logged
500
scenic
miles.
Friday’s
ride
was
the
big
one
we
took
I8
to
Dateland
and
Gila
Bend
then
RT85
to
Ajo
and
Why
and
RT86
to
Tucson.
From
Tucson
on
to
RT10
an
to
RT80
and
arrived
in
Tombstone
at
5pm.
With
very
sore
butts.
But
hey
it’s
party
time
and
what
a
great
weekend
it
was! Did
we
say
Canadians
love
to
ride
or
are
we
just
plain
crazy?
Crazy? Crazy
George Chapter
Historian Thank
you
to
George
and
the
Banta
group
for
a
great
story.

| IMPROMPTU
RIDE
|
| WEDNESDAY,
MARCH
28,
2007
|
|
|
Started
out
for
Phil’s
Filling
Station
Restaurant
in
Fountain
Hills
for
breakfast
and
then
on
to
Cyclefest
located
at
West
World
of
Scottsdale
off
of
RT101
Loop.Road
Captain
Larry
E.
led
the
ride
with
Road
Captain
and
Safety
Officer
AZ
Dave
and
Road
Captain
Rob
W.
riding
sweep.
The
group
of
15
riders
headed
out
to
Ellsworth
Rd.
This
ride
was
the
last
Wednesday
ride
for
4
riders
who
are
leaving
to
go
back
up
north
for
the
summer.
We
wish
the
best
to
our
fellow
chapter
members
Dave,
Jeanette,
Carl
and
Jerry.
Have
a
safe
trip
and
see
you
next
winter.
After
breakfast
we
took
a
group
picture
in
Fountain
Hills
outside
Phil’s
Filling
Station.
Missing
from
the
picture
was
John
“Cat”
whom
has
lead
all
the
Wednesday
rides.
John
had
a
previous
engagement.
Taking
a
picture
without
John
“Cat”
just
didn’t
seem
right.
|
| |
|
|
|
WE
FOUND
JOHN
“Cat”
at
the
AZBW
booth
and
took
a
picture.
Like
I
said,
a
Wednesday
picture
without
John
is
not
right.
Thanks
John. |

|

The
group
left
Fountain
Hills
and
headed
on
Shea
Blvd
to
Cyclefest,
AZBW07
Central.
Free
covered,
secured
parking
for
bikes.
Cost
to
get
in
was
$15.00
unless
you
had
a
pass.
A
great
day
for
a
ride,
sunny,
a
little
chilly,
it
was
leather
weather.
There
wasn’t
much
happening
at
