Motorcycle Ride through the Old West - SW Safari Ep8
On Day 8 of the SW Safari, it was time to make a run for the border. But I'm not talking Taco Bell here. My lunch was a cut above that. We ride to within 10 miles of the Mexican border and visit the Old West towns of Bisbee and Tombstone, Arizona, where I checked out the most interesting place in town. So strap on yer spurs and giddy on up cuz we're gonna round up a great motorcycle ride.

If this or a similar bill is passed, I won't have to convert video taken in areas managed by the National Parks into slide shows. I could just cut all that out entirely, but I figure still pictures are better than no pictures, so I'll do what I have to until things change. But I sure would love to show more of our wonderful national parks to folks to help encourage them to go visit them.

I decided to skip the probably expensive OK Corral ticket and just meandered around a bit. I spent about an hour or so in Big Nose Kate's. It was hopping on a Saturday afternoon. I'd always wanted to go, but it's really far south. As I turned north into Bisbee, I was 8 miles from the Mexican border.
Very cool I never been to tombstone, but I’ve always wanted to go and any place called the Miner diner. has to be good thanks for taking us along.

The copper mine in Morenci produces the most copper in North America and apparently has for a long time. Sorry for no pics in the diner. I guess I spaced. IIRC, the food was good, I'd eat there again. The name seemed quite appropriate for the town. I figured Spring would be a good time to hit the Southwest. It wasn't too hot. I did have a few concerns with snow at times throughout the whole trip, though.
Wind, the wind across U.S. 2 headed west 2 years ago almost blowed me over, memories of the ride. There are more beautiful rides/hwys than one from back east might think of being in Arizona. I always thought the LONELIEST HIGHWAY would be boring to ride across. Man was I wrong. You just settle in and enter your own world. Enjoyed the video Curt and RIDE SAFE OUT THERE! Foggot to mention the reuben sandwich and onion rings looked YUMMY!😂

Big Nosed Kate's is a nice slice of the old west. Just as good a slice as the first and second half of that ruben!
I live about 25 miles southeast of Phoenix. I have friends that live in Bisbee. I ride my Sportster down there quite often. If you go to Bisbee, definitely check out Lowell. Lots of wonderful old buildings, cars, and bikes. As far as Tombstone goes, it's not one of my favorite places. It's more of an amusement park than anything else.
