AZRATPack
Due to the stay at home order issued by Governor Ducy, we’ve cancelled all April events. This includes 2nd Sunday Breakfast, Alien Abduction Meet & Greet and the Alien Abduction Tour. You can view the Governor’s announcement here.
These are some interesting times to say the least! I hope this message finds you and all of your families in good health. After cancelling our March General Membership Meeting & Dinner due to the current health situation, I’d like to address what the plan is moving into April and our events.
Due to the current health crisis that is currently happening, the Board of Directors of the AZRATPack have decided to cancel this month’s dinner. We have taken this action after careful consideration to ensure the safety and health of our members and the community in general.
Effective starting on our Leap Year Day Ride on February 29th the following change to check-in has been made:

I am proud to announce the AZRATPack received the AMA’s 2019 Recreational Road Riding Organizer of the Year award last night at the AMA’s Champions Banquet last night in Columbus, Ohio. Board members, Rodney “El Chino Loco” Chew and Stephen Stoops were there representing the club to receive this prestigious award in person.
The AZRATPack Board of Directors is proud to announce out 2020 Ride Schedule featuring some all new rides, some that have returned to the schedule from the past and some that we’ve already done but with a different twist.
The 2019 Route 66 Tour is fast approaching! This is a great ride to go on if you’ve been pining for going on a multi-day trip but haven’t had the confidence on going on one by yourself. With short riding days and frequent stops, this is the perfect ride to get started on! Also, since we’re never really that far away from civilization, you can always pick something up at the store that you may have forgotten to pack or for a circumstance that you didn’t plan for (cold weather). Heck, we’ll be passing not too far away from one GO AZ’s newest locations in Flagstaff.
Join us for a ride that has been a long standing tradition of our club. Our annual Route 66 Tour will start in Scottsdale then lend you an opportunity to live “Take It Easy” by the Eagles and “Stand on the corner of Winslow, Arizona”. We will then head west on as much of the Mother Road as possible and end the night in historic Williams. The next morning, we will roll through Ash Fork and head into Seligman for breakfast, the town that inspired the original Disney movie, “Cars”. After breakfast we will continue on Route 66 and make stops in Hackberry, Kingman and historic Oatman where Clark Gable and Carol Lombard spent their wedding night. We will then head for Laughlin, NV and the Colorado Belle for a stop for the night. On Sunday morning, we’ll get up early and head to a more modern Route 66 attraction, Topock66 for breakfast. From here, you’re on your own to head back home via the route of your choosing.
