So the plan is, to go riding for a couple of days after Christmas. Like, go get lost somewhere in southern Arizona riding. Pack a tent, take a bag, point the bike and see what happens kind of riding. It’s been too damn long. So much has happened the last 2 months that It’ll be nice to take a break and go explore some. I’m really right where I want to be, and I want to come out swinging for 2017.
Last weekend I was sick and didn’t get a chance to explore much, other than take US 60 East and found and old bypassed section of roads and tunnels I couldn’t get to in a car because of being blocked off. I measured the barriers, and I’m pretty sure my bike will fit between them. Maybe Ill get the balls and go explore those. I more than likely will. Curiosity killed this cat.
I think I’ll head east toward Globe AZ and down toward the old copper mining town of Bisbee and maybe over to Tombstone AZ. Really, I don’t care. Everything is a new road now, and I’ll eventually see those places. I just want to ride, take a deep breath and enjoy Arizona a little bit.
I hope all you biker pricks are having a Merry Christmas so far!
A few places in the Southeast corner: Chiricahua National Monument is cool and you can camp there. Cochise Stronghold has primitive camping and not far from there is Ft Bowie Nat'l Monument. It is 1-2 miles easy walk to the fort and worth the trip. When you leave the fort behind the ranger station is a trail to the hilltop behind the station. The trail returns you to the beginning of the trail you walked in on. Good riding..
Lucky fucker !
