On June 13th, a bunch of our BMMCārs got together for a fundraiser and magic show at Spinatoās Pizza. A great event to raise money for Veteranās. Thank you to Alan Wegener for arranging this.

Aug 19th - 23rd is our premier ride to southern Utah. The Zion resort is great. They have a pool, lazy river, and a hot tub and we will have time to use them so bring your suit. Closest town is a ways away. If you want to bring libations, you need to bring them or get them in Kanab on the way there. If you have peanut allergies, please know that the Barnyard our lunch stop has peanuts on the floor. There is a great pie/restaurant nearby called the Thunderbird to get Ho-made pies on Thursday. Several spoke rides are planned - one is east Zion loop(bring your parks card for entry). The meeting place for the last 98 miles is the Barnyard in Page, AZ the club will be there for an hour or hour & half around lunch time - time to be confirmed at the August meeting. For those bringing trailers, the parking is limited. Motorcycles will be given first parking and the truck and trailers might have to go to an overflow area. Each camping spot has a spot for a car so that could be used for a trailer and then maybe truck below. Stay tuned.
