About bringing kids it should be a great outing with a hike or picnic up in the pine trees. I've never checked out the telescopes but that might be fun.

The approach is about 45min from our meetup spot going west on HWY 86 (no kidding) to the base where we can regroup, and then 11 miles up the hill.

It is shorter than Lemmon and not as high. But the upside is you won't spend any time stuck behind a PT Cruiser that doesn't use the damn pullouts! I love how lonely a road it feels like, and the lack of traffic and policia. Not to oversell it, but it's a similar distance and elevation gain to Pikes Peak. At a much lower elevation but there is a sign warning people with health problems about going up to 7500' lol.

The driving has a pretty similar rhythm and pace to Lemmon with almost all the turns taken in 3rd gear, and a glorious hairpin at the end to the summit. This road is my jam and has always had more to teach me and more reasons to come back..

So the ajo/kino spot has E85 at the Chevron. If you guys are getting burgers maybe you can meet at 12:15 or 12:30? I don't have a lot of time.. just 1x up the mtn and then back to change diapers (the baby's & possibly my own). Anyone with lots more time really ought to enjoy multiple laps plus coming back via Arivaca could be awesome, or even just Gates Pass for some added value.

I will check this forum right before we roll out at 1ish.

I think daughter bailed on me. She slept at her friends house last night.
I have a grade A hangover, but should be good to go by lunch.

Wish I could go on the Kitt Peak run, but after working 3 1/2 of the last 4 weekend days I have a "honey do" list a mile long. Mentioned going yesterday to my wife and she gave me a look (you married guys know that look). Have a great drive guys!

Well for example.. Last night you could have viewed some photos of 4-5 stanced Civics parked in a row, as well as a primered 06 Camry, if you had added the tags #stickeycrew #NOTALLTHAT #lameasfuq #dontdosurprisecarmeets and last but certainly not least, #dafuqjushappened ...

Good cruise @jack43 @MaddBaggins @brenesk91

I had fun going to Kitt Peak except for the border patrol. I thought the guy signaled me to go when I stopped at the stop sign but no. I heard the guy said stop then I was getting questions if I was a American citizen etc....

MaddBaggins · 05-04-2014, 08:34 PM

So much fun! Good to meet you guys! I ran Kinney Road to Gates Pass on the way back. Got stuck behind a slo poke on Gates Pass. Oh well.

I wanna so that GoPro footage!!
