The Death Valley Rendezvous – 25th Anniversary

Calendar Event Here

The Airheads have their annual rally and the South Coasters have a choice of joining the Airheads for camping (like me, Rick C) or making plans in a nearby motel (someone needs to makes these plans).

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the “Oldest and Lowest of all Airhead Rendezvous,” and, as in the previous 24 years, we will brave the unpredictable weather of February to gather at the Furnace Creek Campground in Death Valley National Park on President’s Day weekend.

SIGN UP HERE AND MAIL YOUR CHECK to the Airheads here:

I’m going. I mailed my check a couple weeks ago.

[Mark Borgeson]

I’m going – just sent my check.

[Richard Catarineau]

I’m riding up Friday morning. Anyone want to meet in Ridgecrest for lunch and ride up through Trona?

[Richard Catarineau]

Larry and I will meet at noon for lunch at the Denny’s on the corner of 395 Bus (China Lake Blvd) and Ridgecrest Blvd. Anyone want to join us?

[Brandon Wilson]

Rick,

I will meet you guys there and complete the ride together.

[Mark Borgeson]

Rick,
Larry, Brandon, & I, are riding out together. We’ll see you in Ridgecrest.

[Karl Wagner]

I have taken enough time off for now, would anyone be interested in heading out very early Saturday morning to arrive by noon? Art least we could enjoy the Saturday dinner and Sunday Breakfast before heading home Sunday! Let me know if you are interested. ETA to leave would be Sonrise Saturday morning. Meet up flexible.

[Mark Borgeson]

Rain, Rain, go away! Come again another day.
Weekend weather forecast looks lousy – Rain Fri, Sat, & Sun.

[Bill Reitz]

Don’t worry, that rain is for the LA area, you’ll be DEEP in the desert and coming home Monday will be nice. This is President’s Day weekend.

[Brandon Wilson]

Thanks for the positive vibes Bill. I am hoping this is not an entirely soggy adventure but rain or shine I am giving it a go. It is getting out of LA in the morning that most likely will be a bit more wet than I would hope for.

[Richard Catarineau]

The weatherman says rain this weekend, even in Death Valley, but he lies. Either way, I’m still going. Meet you in Ridgecrest.

[Karl Wagner]

You guys are impressive, Friday rain looks to be the big day, be safe you Friday riders! Looks like Brandon and Rick are there for sure, who else?? Mark B? I am on the fence.

[Mark Borgeson]

Well I was on the fence but have decided not to go. Riding into a storm is not for me. I hope the storm bypasses Death Vally.

[Richard Catarineau]

I’m feeling another New Year’s Eve event – where the weatherman says rain all 3 days and we barely get sprinkled on once. Never even put on the rain gear. And think of all those wildflowers blooming in the desert. Who knows? Maybe we’ll get a photo taking an epic canoe trip in Death Valley.

Last chance guys!

Besides, Beatty is only 40 miles away with cheap rooms.
