    No more Geiser loop, now where do we test?

    We are going to test the Kovach class 6 on saturday and I heard the geiser loop was fenced, so does anyone know where to go shake the truck down? I heard there is a road from Happy Valley rd to Carefree HWy Maybee a powerline road? any help is great. I am looking for some whoops and turns something like the loop had.

    Get a hold of Albert McMullen at MCM Motorsports. He told me last week that he has a "sheriff approved" spot out at the North end of 163rd Ave. Supposedly they have a couple of flagged off loops. I was going to go out there Saturday, but found a crack in my bell housing.

    Yeah, it figures.... those Geiser Brothers (I forgot their first names... what... Ricky and Bobby?) They sell you a truck and give you nowhere to test it out? I WILL NEVER buy a Geiser Trophy Truck... hear that, boys! NEVER! You can take that to the bank!

    Back when I lived there, I would take my moto out to the end of School House Road in Cave Creek ... but I suppose it is now a "preserve". How about out on the old mining roads by Wickenburg on down in the Hassayampa drainage?

    Parker hay sheds: shade, python, dump road. Worth the drive. Too many recreational OHV's on Saturdays near PHX.' Plus 'Ruckus or Trent, among others, could appear, there's shops and auto part stores all handy, and last but not least, RUPERTO'S. Ask for the "special taco." Several, in fact.

    Seriously, only about 2.5 hours away.
    Hey! You kids!! Get OFF my driveway!!! If you can't go away happy, just go away!

    Apparently Ricky and Jeffy do't feel the need to test much...just ask Jesse Jones after San F..

    If you have a full day you're to dedicate to testing, it's definitely worth the extra 90 minutes drive time... from the 101 & I-10, you can make it in about 90ish minutes...

    Yes it is, Mike. Too bad you haven't been able to raise dust in Pima County since the 80's. At GB the old loop was still open in April, I only went to the levy along I-10, but I think you can still run in Big Sandy Wash, too. Heard a rumor there were a couple of old codgers that didn't much take to OHV's out past the cemetery, so steered clear of there
