A Peek at the Peaks

Today the Kadizzlites went separate directions.  The Commander took off with the Canadians on an all day hike through the Superstition Mountains.  Kadizzle took his longest ride yet to the Four Peaks. That is the peaks in the background of the motorcycle.  Last year we got to the top from the other side. Cissie and Rodger just about made it to the very top.  500ft short they was just no way to go higher.

On today's ride Kadizzle hauled the Yamaha to withing twenty miles of the mountain top.  From there it was a long ride.  Almost to the top the road began to have some steep patches covered with snow.   Prudently Kadizzle had to turn back.  Shortly after he started back three young guys on dirt bikes passed him on the way.  Kadizzle stopped and shut of his cycle to see if he could hear the youngsters get through the snow.  While waiting the sheriff came down the mountain.  Kadizzle asked him if the cyclist made it all the way.  The sheriff said one took a pretty good spill in the snow, but was unhurt.  They made it, but paid the price.  Kadizzle is to old to go down in the snow and fight gravity picking up the cycle.
