We had a terrific time on the B.E.A.T.. Thanks to TKSCRVS and MYTOOPS for the escort back to PHX.

We are reserving the dates for next year, April 18th & 19th 2009.

The weather was perfect, the company was great - all around a great time! Thanks as well to JPMINITUCSON & MYTOOPS for the drive back to Phoenix - what a great scenic route back.

Jon, you're welcome for the pity prize.. next time I won't fall prey to your crocodile tears. :lol:

good times :)

Got back to Tucson to find I'm slowly leaking coolant from one of my radiator hoses :roll: .. but the trip was super fun. Glad to get to hang out with so many super-cool-mini-people

I'll definitely be trying to make it up to Phoenix more often this summer. Pics to come whenever I'm not lazy enough to recharge my camera batteries..

We had a great time. Really enjoyed the long drive. I had never driven many of these roads.

I was really surprised there weren't cars all backed up on the road. The majority of group kept well spread out.

Here are some great pics.

That glass dish of potpurri? almost made a nice gift. I told my mom that I bought it for her in flagstaff. She was happy about it until she discovered that I left my raffle ticket inside the box.
