January 1 - Wildflower Bread Co.

 

Richard has sent me the January schedule, but he's already cancelled the 4's ride for January 1, as "the forecast is 80% chance of rain accompanied by persistent hangovers". I'm not very hopeful that the 3's will be riding off to Wildflower Bread Co. in Scottsdale as well. I'm going to wait and make that decision in the morning, though.

Rock on...

December 25 - Merry Christmas (no club ride)

 

As has been tradition in the ABC days, the Granada chapter of PMBC will not have an organized ride this week. 

But I'd like to wish you all a happy holiday season, and look forward to riding up and down the Dreamy Draw repeatedly as soon as they open it up. 

Rock on...

December 18 - US Egg

 

Richard, Steve and the 4's are riding to Country Boys this Sunday, and Mike and the 3's will be heading east to US Egg

Last week was 35 years since I flew down from Omaha to interview for a job here in Phoenix. It was a great two days, the weather was awesome, the town lit up for Christmas, and I met cyclist Nelson Vails (Silver medal winner at the '84 Olympics) at a bar in Scottsdale. And all anyone could talk about was the upcoming concerts at Sun Devil Stadium, U2 spent two nights filming for "Rattle and Hum", for $5 a ticket! Sadly, I had to return to Omaha but was hired by Checker Auto Parts, the beginning of my career in the Valley of the Damned. 

Join us for the LAST ride of 2022, enjoy this clip and rock on..

December 11 - Moon Valley Cafe

 

Well, we missed out on our Tempe ride last week due to the soggy morning. But the rain sure perked up our romaine lettuce in the garden. 

Richard and the 4's are going to Whataburger this week, and Mike will be leading y'all to Moon Valley Cafe

You probably haven't seen any Travis Pastrana [HOONIGAN] videos, so here's the one to start with. Travis drove for the Discount team years ago, but he's just totally insane now. Watch, and rock on...
