Today at 10am the Old Geezer's Group meet at the Winery, we will be taking a plaque for our deceased friend Greg and putting it up in the mountains, a place that Greg gave us all quite a fright, that totaled his quad, but then gave us untold memories an laughs of his escapade. We lost Greg to a heart attack last January but he will always live in our memories and forever will ride with the Old Geezer's Group. Anyone that wants to join us today is more than welcome, just show up at the Winery at 10am. Don't be sad, Greg wouldn't have liked that, come enjoy, remember our friend, hell, bring a beer if you like, now that Greg would have liked.

Newest News, Ron has switched from the Teryx to a Can-Am Maverick

Summer is upon us and while it is so hot there are a few of us that are getting repairs done to our rigs. We have a weekend run coming up on June 14th to Bishop, Ca. Emmet will be leading this run and it's bound to be a lot of fun. Contact Emmet if you want to join in.

Sandy Valley Lunch Run

We had a total of 9 rigs meet up at the end of Homestead and ride to Sandy Valley for lunch. Everything went smooth as smooth can be until almost back. Then it was kinda a turn we shouldn't have made then another, then the dusty silt ride from Hell, led by Emmett. Just look at the pics and see what I mean. Luckily for Linda she turned of early for home and missed this last bit of tomfoolery.

Sandy Valley Lunch run

I hear rumors that some of the guys are getting together this Friday. Meet at the end of Homestead Ave 9am and ride to Sandy Valley, have lunch, then back to Pahrump.

I was very proud of our Old Geezer's Group this past Saturday as 8 showed up to help "Gifts for Warriors" put on by the Pioneer Saloon in Goodsprings, Nv. BUT, unfortunately it turned out the only things they planned to help was themselves. We sat there for over 8 hours, no wounded warriors, no helping or charity, it was all about the Pioneer Saloon selling $5.00 beer and $10.00 hamburgers to a bunch of bikers. The car show was a joke, by 4 oclock when we left, there was no truck show, chili cookoff was a joke. I thank the guys from the Old Geezer's Group that pulled their rigs more than 100 miles roundtrip to help out and all I can say to my guys is don't worry, we won't get screwed like that again.

This is what we are doing tomorrow! Cmon out and have fun with the Old Geezer's Group.

Today we rode from Trout Canyon thru Lovell Canyon and then to Red Rock. We had 13 rigs and only 1 didn't go all the way, bailed out at the Rock Garden and caught a ride with one of the other guys, picked his rig up on the way back. Seems Mick needs to adjust the shock springs as it seems to be set too low. I think JD is going to help him with that on Sunday. There was a bus load of French Canadian kids at Red Rock.

Tomorrow morning (Friday 4/26/2013) we are having a run to Red Rock Canyon. Meet at Trout Canyon Rd and Hiway 160, we'll be unloaded and pulling out at 9am. Emmett call this one, so Emmett should be leading, if not someone else will lead. Bring lunch, bring drinks, we'll eat at Red Rock, make sure your full of fuel.

The Old Geezer's Group is going to have their very first real meeting. We will meet this coming Wednesday morning at 0730 at the Pahrump Nugget Café. Anyone that rides with us or anyone that would like to ride with us are welcome. This will be a talking meeting, not a riding meeting.

Emmet is back

This afternoon most of us found out that Emmett finally replaced his quad. At 11:00am we decided to ride with Em for an hour or so, break back in, not to be confused with Brokeback Mountain (Sorry John). 8 rigs showed up at 1:30pm and we rode up to the mine and back. Em looked rusty, LOL.

Can't believe it's been so long since updating the OGG Blog. Anyway, now it's 2013, I crashed my atv, no permanent damage, but Karan said "get something with a roll cage", so I did, a Kawasaki Teryx. Today John is over picking up his new Polaris RZR, it's really not new, it's a 2011, but it's new to him. Larry is here now, as is Jerry, Jack didn't make it down this year. We have some new riders, most with side by sides. Next time out I'll try to get some pics and post em.
