Meet at 1130, KSU NOON.
Usual route to Gila Bend, stop for lunch and gas, then off to Yuma on I-8. Look, folks…there’s not much to be done to add variety to this ride. At least, not until they get rid of speed limits on I-8!
Anyway, for you detail types….South on 56th St. to Nelson Rd, right on Nelson across I-10 to Marcipa Rd, left on Maricopa Rd, right on SR347, right on SR-238, merge onto SR85, make the Gila Bend stops. Then follow SR85 to I-8, right on to I-8, and ride ride ride ride ride ride ride ride until we finally reach the sprawling metropolis of Yuma. Exit on Exit #2 and make a left onto US-95. Quick stop at the Arco (it’s re-opened!) to get gas and Kiltlifter, then we continue to the hotel.
