Tuscon ride November 28th
- Thread starter wes
- Start date
I had fun, we had a little problem and I promise that guy will not be joining us for any other rally.
We started off at Reid park and headed towards the U of A and 4th avenue. From there we went through downtown and headed to Gates pass. It was pretty windy up there and the dust was blowing. I was riding the Huffy cranbrook and had my pedal chain fall off going up gates pass. Luckily it did not fall off going back down gates pass or I would have lost my brakes.
From there we headed back through downtown and ended are rally at the BMX track off Broadway.
Here are a few pics, I have like 40minutes of video so give me some time to make a video or two of the rally.

Sorry I couldn't keep up, but I just had no power on the hills. I finally figured out later that my choke was still partly on. Apparently I missed when I tried to turn it off after starting. I guess that is one of the problems with trying to work controls while wearing gloves. Anyway it was a good day riding and I finally got west of I-10!
Awesome pics guys, the rally was a lot of fun as well as getting to meet all of you, my apologies to Fin Fan, next time we will stick closer together, thats kinda funny about your choke cause i rode all the way across town this morning wondering why mike bike was so guttless and then realized my choke was half on.
Thats an awesome job Dave, thanks!!!
It was a pleasure to meet you Wes 
I am glad you guys like the video, once I upload it to you-tube I cannot see it.
Hopefully soon we can have another rally and maybe this time have a few more join us.

Mr. Fairracing your video was great its fun to sit in my chair with Rufus sleeping on my lap and see other places from a motorized bicycle. At the end I even saw a Austin Healey go by you guys along with a jag and some other cool looking cars they were going up the road as you all were going down the road.

It's ok dude from what I've heard rain washes right off.I hear we might have rain
Going on one of the driest years in the history of Arizona ever since they have been keeping records and of course the day we plan a rally it decided to rain.
I used to own a 1964 mark 3 Austin Healey fun little car approx. 140 hp from 144 ci engine 3 su carbs, dual exhaust, 6 cylinder engine, 4 speed with a 2 speed over drive, solid walnut instrument panel, knock off hub wire wheels hit the hub with a hammer and the wheels came right off. Oh it also had a rag top fun to go down the road with the top down. First auto engine I ever rebuilt. I miss that car, I traded my Harley chopper a 1952 pan head for the car, I miss that bike even more. when I got the Harley it was bone stock and I was 17 years old same as the bike. My Uncle said I ruined it by making a chopper out of it, at the time I didn't care now I wish I had it completely stock if I still had that old bike.
A guy in Iowa has the car now, keeps it in a garage doesn't hardly ever drives it, from what I've heard.
I don't know what ever happened to the Harley.
I meet my wife on the Harley in Illinois and to get to Wyoming to get ingaged to her I traded the bike for the car better for a long distance traveling in the winter when I went west.
I think it was a good trade, well most of the time I do.

The total trip was between around 20 miles.
There are so many MB in Tucson and we only got a total of 5 riders.
We should get another little ride before the 16 of DEC. I leave that day and will be gone for 3 weeks. Im gonna have to miss the Next death race on JAN 2 if its still going on.
