Anyone heading to Arizona bike week at the end of march, first part of april. Sounds like cool stuff going on.

how much you figure itd take to get down there? hmmmm....
Not sure how much it would take to go to arizona. I know that its 826 miles from pueblo, going south on I25. Figure getting a cheap room, the lowest I have found are 60-70 dollars a night. Food and gas, if you ride down, I'm figuring $400 if you could keep it on the low side. Maybe a little more for gas as they are supposed to be having shows all over arizona that week. I will probaly make my reservations to night. Still need to get riding boots, and saddle bags for my 9er.
Check out this thread, I think it's basically the same as what you r talking about. It's not so much all over AZ, but pretty localized to a couple spots and this is the biggest one, by far.... Riding down will suck pretty bad most of the way, I made the drive when I moved here from Tucson. Anyway, check out the thread, it'll answer some question if you haven't already seen it...

800 miles each way in a straight line on a sportbike. Ouch.

Be polite. Be professional. But be prepared to kill everyone you meet.

That's why you get some Charmin and stuff your pants.
Seriously, though, it might not be that bad. I did more than that on my SV.
On my RC51 it would be torture...

Dont worry,ur not a misfit. There is that huge group of riders here in town but I dont ride with them either. Dont get along too well with a few of em.lol So if you ever want to ride u should hit me up. My name is Adam by the way n my numbber is (719) 557-0088. Now back to the matter at hand,that would be a hell of a ride. It would be nice to trailer em down,but I dont have a good trailer at the moment.... I must say that my parentals wouldnt be to happy with the idea either.lol
Not to be a buzz bill... I live down here & have never found any interest to participate in Bike Week. Shouldn't matter, but it's a LOT of Harley's & cruizer's & posers.
Now if you're gonna come down... Let me know!
PHX, AZ
Sorry couldn't answer right away Adam, my computer crashed and I just got it back right now. That sounds great. Have you been doing any riding yet, for me just when it gets up to 50° an up. Guess I am not going to arizona, spent too much time procrastinating. My boots are still coming in and all.
Hmmm, I emailed one of the people on the Arizona bike week web sight and he said there was a bunch of catagories and this included several sportbike catagories. Although I looked at the pics of last years bike week and only saw 3 or 4 sportbike pics.
It's cool man. I'm out anytime its over 50° as well. Its been pretty nice up until this week so I was always out. Its supposed to be nice starting tomorrow so I'm sure I'll be out. Just hit me up if you wanna go out. Yeah I shouldnt spend the money to go either...lol
