I hear there is a story here

Seems like a couple of the Old Geezer's went camping, I heard something about cot's breaking, air mattresses flipping over, somebody falling out of bed (in an enclosed trailer yet???), a crushed chair, small fish, lost ammo magazines, and in every story there seems to be some reference to Brokeback Mountain, or Broke Back, or Deliverence or something like that. . . anybody care to comment??? Why does John have chapstick???? Where'd the butter go??? Man, there seems to be a lot of questions floating around.

Snowbird Geezers

Our Old Geezer Group snowbird members are beginning to head for the northern climes. We've had a great season with them and will miss all of them this summer. And think fondly of them when we ride this summer when our rides start more like 6am and we scramble home about 11am cause it's well over 100 degrees and the sweat is beginning to make mud of the dust.

Ride to Dumont Dunes

The Old Geezer Group rode from Pahrump, Nv to Dumont Dunes, Ca today. Depending on whose odometer you use round trip was somewhere between 87 miles and 98 miles. Riders were Jack, Jerry, Larry, Andy, John and Ron.

Sunday's ride

8 rigs headed up to the "Railroad Tie Ranch", then over to the "Spring in a Cave", and lastly across the highway to a bunch of mining claims with some active.

More Saturday Pics

Here's a couple more pics from Saturday. The big tubes you see were for bringing fresh air into the mines.

Saturday to the mines

John, Larry, and Ron went exploring the Gunsight mine, level 4 entrance we believe. We also scouted out the trail over the mountain to the other mines, now we will not have to load and unload to go over there, just drive on through the pass on the quads.

4 OGG ride

Today, 4 of the OGG, Larry, Jerry, Jack and Ron decided to check out the Carpenter Canyon and Wallace Canyon loop. The rains have really tore up the road, there's a couple of places where the road is now 3 to 4 feet lower than it used to be. We were the first tracks up Wallace Canyon and only made it about 3/4 of the way. Jerry said that's enough, we be gettin stuck.

First ride of 2011

Sunday morning at 10am the OGG formed up for our first ride of 2011. We left the Winery parking lot and headed to the snow line. At our first coffee break stop to check how things were going and to warm up a bit, it was decided maybe today's mission would be to get John stuck. We headed up to Wheeler Well and proceeded to accomplish our mission, it was easier than we thought as John kept cooperating by getting stuck again and again. Lucky for John, Don was there with his Razor to pull him out. Then next time, it was Greg and his Honda and Emmett and his Arctic Cat to the rescue. Later on after that bunch of fun, we met a 4X4 PU stuck further up the mountain, after we pulled/pushed him out of the ditch we headed down the mountain. Too bad we didn't get picks of one of the Razor's doing a 360 coming down the hill but Jack got to see it first hand.

OGG get together

We had a little Christmas Old Geezer's Group get together with wives last night. It's nice meeting and socializing with everyone. Guess we're gonna ride together on Sunday.

Time to get postin

Haven't updated for quite a while, the OGG guys that are the snowbird contingent are starting to trickle back in to the desert. Today we rode up Jack's Trail or Canyon, whichever you like, with two of the returnee's, Jerry and Larry, and a new OGG who lives right down the street. Larry is supposed to post some pics, maybe of the Elk we saw.
