    Happy 4th, Pigger and the rest of you Tacos.

    Sorry, just checked in now. Been busy. This morning was new brakelines. Have to see about planning something to keep this going. Something up north would be nice and cooler.

    An offroad adventure of sorts. Loaded up the bike on the FJ and toured Arizona. Returned to a couple favourite trails in Flagstaff and Sedona. Rode Prescott for the first time. Even visited the town of Jerome, http://www.azjerome.com/jerome/ Came home to double rainbows and a bit of rain.

    I'm thinking Jemez (the old standby) or heading up around Taos. Way too much pretty country I haven't seen up there yet.

    You guys interested in mixing in some hiking? Working on the plan tonight. Thinking I want to get out and stretch the legs somewhere, possibly just a couple miles if the families come along or other factors dictate.

    Weekend of the 6th or 13th is ideal for me. I will be out of town the weekend of the 20th.

    I'll post up a sign-up later tonight. Think I'm going to plan around Williams Lake. Early morning drive-up, hike out to the lake then maybe a late lunch/early dinner in Taos. If anyone has a suggestion on where to eat, chime in.
