August Club Breakfast Recap

The Clinksdale Hotel, Bar + Grill – Jerome, AZ

The alarm went off at 4:30am and after hitting snooze a couple of times, I rolled out of bed and hit the shower. Once all I got myself going, I aired up the tires on the Harley and headed out north on I-17 to AZ SR 260 then on SR 89A into Jerome. I must admit, it got a little chilly at times once I went up the hill in Black Canyon City, but not uncomfortably so. What a great break from the record breaking Phoenix Valley heat!

20th Anniversary Tour Recap

GO AZ Motorcycles Scottsdale

A great group of people came together to celebrate the RATPack 20th Anniversary Tour.  El Presidente assembled a route that took us to places we had enjoyed in the past. The tour ended up covering a significant number of miles visiting the states of New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Nevada. The planned trip was 5 days in length covering 2000+ miles for most (look for more comments later) by the time you returned home.

May Club Dinner & Meeting Recap

Joe’s Farm Grill, Gilbert, AZ

It was a bit on the warm side when I left for the 60 mile ride to Eastern Gilbert at one of my favorites, Joe’s Farm Grill!

It was kissing 100 degrees in Buckeye by the time I fired up the Harley but was about 75 for the ride home at about 9:00 PM!

April Club Dinner & Meeting Recap

Cuban Foods Bakery & Restaurant, Phoenix, AZ

I probably ate more pork last night than most people eat in a month! Over the years, I’ve picked Cuban Foods Bakery & Restaurant for our April dinner because of the close proximity to my birthday and I choose to quietly celebrate by gorging myself with delicious food from my family’s home country. This is the most authentic tasting Cuban restaurant that I’ve found in the Phoenix area that is still open. Havana Café in Scottsdale was a favorite until they shut down.
