4 Corners Run
Utah, Colorado, New Mexico & Arizona form a square in the lower right of America rather like this. Ignago is a small town in Colorado where the 4 Corners bike run was held. Over 36,000 bikers were
there . Myself & Steve were only going for a put to King Canyon below Yosemite. When my brake lever fell off. We went to Bakersfield H.D. Shop where Kiwi a guy there said 'are you going on
the 4 Corners Run' Well Steve had told me about this big run, but thought it was later in the year. I said 'we've got to go' 36,000 bikers!
Steve said yeah he being the one who told me about it from the start-
So we rode to my house, got extra provisions, slept till 4 am & left.
By lunchtime there was obviously something wrong, with my 'front end' The H.D. shop in Vegas fixed it & were really great & by the next day we rode from Vegas, thru the Zion Park (a scenic desert 'Yosemite') & we stopped after 14hrs at Cortez, 40 miles from our destination. We rode to Durango & then Ignacio, Next day.
Got there at 12.00 noon pitched our tent with our bikes in front & then went & looked at all the festivities. The best thing (apart from all the 'outlaw' bikes) was a spectacular 15 min long firework show. There was people playing music there, but nobody we knew. so I did not try & force people to accept me. I liked being there as just another biker. One guy even said 'y' know your NOT JUST a Hollywood rider, (great stuff)
HOME 12. noon sunday we rode home stopping the night in Tuba. Rode on thru the reservation staying at a hotel on the reservation. rode on & stayed at a hotel 3 hours from home at Victurville
& by noon next day I was home & exhausted. That was a couple of thousand miles, & all the bikes in one glittering square after any other makes you want to write a song.
Keep Rockin'
