June 13th rideHu

Ed
Carl had Ham and eggs with biscuits and gravy. That is a half order of ham! It's 3/4 inch thick!

Ed had a nice Breakfast Sirloin with his eggs and stuff. We were there when they opened the kitchen, the main dining room wasn't ready, so we ate in the bar.

Outside dining has a side for smokers, and this side is non-smoking. We're at 6800 feet elevation here, a nice COOL 82 degrees outside.

The General Store at the Resort

Sign says "Hog Corral", but it worked just fine for a couple of Vulcans and a Half-a-Busa.

Copied Biglefti this morning, wore my "Arizona Leathers" (Shorts and a tee shirt) It's OK when you ride a plastic scooter

East Side of the mountain. This is only about a mile from Stigreaves Pass

Mid 90's, but Carl had never seen the Fish Pond Springs before. He had to get up there and take a look

Not to be out-done, Ed climbs the rock steps, which take you about half way up to the springs. This time of year it's very dry up there, but the water is still running

While we were there, several groups and single riders came by. Very few people know about the spring, it's not visible from the West, and if you don't know exactly where it is, you won't just stumble onto it.

Did a little dirt riding to get up here for a picture. Would have been easy on the XT, but was sort of tricky on the little wheels with not much suspension of the scooter. It was worth it.

You can't tell from the pictures, but I had to climb up quite a ways from the highway to get here.

New items at Cool Springs Store. Very nice chairs. Was thinking "patio", until I priced them...$300 ea!! But, they aren't plastic. :-)

All the best materials go into the chairs

By the time we finished out diet pops, there were several Harleys here. One couple was from Florida

Ready to head home. Took my T-shirt off and rode home bare. Only about 30 miles, but I'm sort of pink tonight :-) Summer is coming to Kingman! It's 8 PM right now, and still 92 degrees outside.
