We have a group of riders we go out with every year. Around 8 to 12 bikes. We meet in Rancho Cucamonga at around 8 with KSU at 9ish. Head out the back way through Silverwood, High Desert to HWY 62 then old route 66 into Amboy then back way into Laughlin. Great ride with a few stops to stretch the legs.

28 days.....

Super hot, rain and wind or...?

Anybody want to guess the weather 1 month from now for the River Run?

I'm dreaming of 78 deg with a mild breeze. I did say I was dreaming didn't I?

27 days and counting down...

If the River Run were this weekend the forecast in Laughlin would be 90 degs today, 96 tomorrow, 92 Saturday and then cool down to 72 and windy Sunday. Overnight temps would be in the mid to high 60's.

Let's see what kind of weather the next 27 days bring.

T-shirt weather would be nice. Time is moving slower as we get closer to the ride.

Leaving Wed, staying at the Tropicana Express, will hit Oatman on Thu before the crowds get there. Forecast: same as last year. We will check out Lazy Harry's for breakfast on the way to Oatman. 26 days and counting.

we have been pretty lucky with the weather there the last 4 rallies. A little chilly on the ride out there last year but warmed up nicely. I think we had rain 5 years ago. Where is Anubiss and So Cal???? They usually dominate this thread yearly. MIA or what????

Last year I went into AZ on a ride Thursday. I got rained on from scatter showers. Not too bad. It still was a great ride.

SoCal means Southern California.
