About the Event

The Fun Run is a celebration of Route 66.  Arizona has the best existing 160 mile stretch of route 66 from Ashfork to Topock.  The Fun Run is a moving classic c https://www.mohavemuseum.org/az-route-66-museum.htmlar show that starts in Seligman on Saturday morning and  breaks for the day in Kingman with a classic car display on the streets of old town Kingman. Then the second leg leaves on Sunday morning from Kingman and ends up in Topock (which is south at the California border  near Hwy 40) for the awards presentation.  If you don’t have to be to  work Monday morning, you might want to consider going on ~ it’s really a  cool ride.  Anyone can enter to be in the parade and take place on the  whole Fun Run, car or motorcycle.  Https://www.explorekingman.com/event-66FunRun
