Smile Laughlin River Run

Ok guys, how many of you going out to the River Run in April? I just made my reservations to go out for the weekend. ROAD TRIP!!!! I use to live there and had a blast every year it came to town. Some awesome riding around those parts. Gotta love going through Oatman. I hope the weather is warm with lots of sunshine.

Can't afford to go in this economy. I'm certain the hotels, etc. have lowered the prices, but not enough to justify the expense.

Had dinner at the lodge last night! Her brother came in town so we took the cage, just as well since there was still 6" of snow up there and very muddy parking. Three ATV's in the "hog pen." LOL

PM me if you think about it before that trip.......if days line up, we will look you up over there. Ride safe!

Some of us were thinking of going, problem is around here April is still fairly early, we could easily get snowed in. We might have to trailer until we hid the warm climates. I'd like to do it, one way or another. My buddy's parents have a place down there, they're snowbirds, always head south to beat the winter. So at least we'd have a place to stay.

Hey Zeuss, I posted in the Alberta riders forum about heading down there. Let me know how many people you have going down. Was thinking of renting a trailer for the bikes n heading down there.

I have went the last two years. My son lives in Vegas so I have a place to stay.

I like the area around there. We road to some little town where the donkeys run around but can't remember the name. It was a little south and west of Laughlin in Az.
