Mufflers

Cory Wiemelt, the owner of The Hawg Pit had reached out about hosting a get together. It's been awhile that I myself has gotten together with the actual chapter of our VMC chapter, so let's plan on taking over Grafton on our beloved Victorys and take a ride up the river road for some lunch. We'll meet in the parking lot below the Piasa bird on the bluff. I'm sure most of us knows where that is but if not I'll post a pic of the location in the comments. If it happens to rain or be a general crappy day, we'll plan on the following Sunday, same time and place. So please let me know of you can make it, would like to get most, if not all of us to join up for a day of fun. And after lunch if we want to make the ferry run up and around Hardin and back down the river road, we can do that too. Let your friends know too, any and all are invited.

We'll decide on a ride at our monthly PVR breakfast meeting at Zeke's...

Beautiful scenery and great rides.

Valley of the Sun Victory Riders is hosting a group ride on June 17, 2023 to Mt. Lemmon in Tucson, AZ.
One of the group's favorites, we're calling this the "Fire & Ice Ride."  We'll be leaving the extreme, triple-digit temperatures of Phoenix (FIRE) and heading to the cool mountain air of Mount Lemmon (ICE). With a summit elevation of 9,159 feet, Mount Lemmon is the highest point in the Santa Catalina Mountains. It is located in the Coronado National Forest north of Tucson.
No fan of the hot temps, our ride captain would like to get an early start. Here's the game plan: 
West & Northsiders:  Meet up at Denny's located at 2717 W Bell Rd (aka the “Orphanage”) for 6 a.m. departure. East & Southsiders: Meet the group at the Apache Junction Chevron, Idaho Rd. & US 60 at 7 a.m. Tucsonans: Meet at Speedway Gas, 12885 N Oracle Rd., Oracle Jct. around 8:30 a.m. Enjoy brunch at Iron Door, Mt. Lemmon Ski Resort about 10:30 a.m. The return trip basically will be the same, taking time to enjoy the “FIRE” inferno we will encounter coming back to the Phoenix Metro area.
