Devil’s Cut 2025

On my Calendar! I have a small group I ride with most Sunday mornings, not Connie riders, that I am planning to invite. Last year was a little small, so I am hoping to help this event grow some. Two years in a row this is my favorite event!
 
Hello Everyone,

The Devil's Cut 2025 Rally is now listed on the COG Event Calendar and open for registration! There’s no fee to register this year, but I’m sure Charby would appreciate having a headcount - so if you’re planning to attend, please take a moment to sign up. If your plans change, you can cancel your registration at any time.

For more details and to register online, visit:
👉 https://concours.org/event-6186165

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make the rally in October, but I’m planning to take the long way from Wisconsin to the COG National in Bernalillo and ride the Devil’s Highway myself!

TCARS!

Mark
 
Good afternoon. I’m looking to find new interesting roads in that area on Friday aside from 191, 180 and 152. Anyone know of PAVED roads to explore? 261 west of Springerville looks interesting.

Yes, 261 aka Greer Loop is interesting, short, but interesting. Take it to 273 then Northwest on 273 and back west on 260 to 73, take that to 60/77 and go to the Salt River Canyon and then down to Globe for Lunch and then go back....or if you desire to see Saguaro cactus continue down to Hayden and around to Superior and then return to Springerville any way you'd like to. Robert Church and I did that last year. I didn't stop to take any photos of the Saguaro though. :cry:

Here is a video of Salt River area: https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i...q7RtdKcvfwSRtMz5dqDfb/1920/i-xGW3kh2-1920.mp4

The Sierra Sidewinder was an awesome Meet and Greet in the high Sierra Nevada's last week! Next terrific meet and greet coming up is the Devil's Cut in Eastern Arizona hosted by Dan Charbonneau October 3-5! Make your reservations now at Reed's Lodge and see you all there! Registration is free but please register so we have rider count for this very fun M&G Get Together.
 
I guess restaurants in Springerville are having a tough time. The pizza place we group ordered from 2 years ago went out of business, and now I see that the Mexican place across the street from Reed's is showing on Google Maps as permanently closed. My wife and I are headed up the 191 tommorrow to celebrate our anniversary, staying at Reeds then back home to Tucson. Highly doubtful that I will make the Devil's Cut ride in a few weeks.

Enjoy your anniversary at the Reed's Lodge and the Springerville area! Hope you will reconsider and ride with us in October.

We ended up eating at Avery's BBQ on HWY 60 heading out town, it was pretty good. The mexican across the street from Reed's is 100% closed, the signs have been removed from the building and it is empty.

signed up!
 
Reserved my room at Days Inn in Prescott for Thursday night. Anyone interested in meeting up will leave Prescott Friday am and ride to Springerville.
 
My wife and I are going to be joining the Devil's Cut this year! We were just at Reed's a few weeks ago, and I learned the hard way, DO NOT park under the tree in this picture, it drips sap terribly! My bike was covered in it.
My wife's name is Vanessa and she has put 11000 miles on her GS in a little over a year.
Looking forward to seeing you all there!

So much for that! My wife won't be coming with me. She either tore a muscle, or possibly has a hernia. Either way, the Doctor thinks riding multiple days on her motorcycle is not a good plan. I will be there! See you all soon!
 
Heading out this morning to get a head start on the Devil's Cut Meet and Greet! David, Keith and I will be riding to Prescott, AZ. today from Southern and Central California. We will be meeting other riders there and then on Friday head out to Springerville, AZ. for the start of the Devil's Cut! All riders please ride safe to the event. :cool: (y)
 
DANG!!!!, SW is really stepping up the rally branding. Looking awesome!

I'm kinda diggin' the dual exhaust and those improved side mirrors, head lights look improved too with the amber lights. If only Kawasaki would bring back the C14 updated.
 
I see you were searching for extra terrestrial intelligence, or maybe calling ET?

That is some array of dishes!

If this is not - there is a very large array of dishes in San Agustin, NM that is most impressive in scale.

Wayne, Carol & Blue

Yes VLA, Very Large Array aka: National Radio Astronomy Observatory in New Mexico. Located as Wayne accurately noted on
the Plains of San Agustin NM.
