Dad and I took a little practice ride in Arizona back in October of 2008. The ride was about 400 miles in one day. Pretty long ride for dad on his sportster all day. I road the Beamer with all the bags for practice with the weight. We left Show Low AZ at 7am and headed south for Globe. The drive from Show Low to Globe changes Elevation from 6500 to 2500 feet. Then ride to Safford AZ where the elevation is about 1800 feet. Head for Alpine on hwy 191. Alpine is about 8500 feet. So in one day lots of changes cold to hot then cold again. The old Carburated Harley did great all day. The first pic is between Globe and Safford. The Second is up by Alpine notice all the Aspens changing colors. The other is at a gas station where we met a guy on a triumph chopper.
