SUMMARY:Devil’s Highway Run - Rescheduled
DESCRIPTION:This event has now been rescheduled.\nWe will evaluate how we will cope with the Covid 19 epidemic requirements near the time of the event.\n																					 \nAre you ready for the ride of your life?\n— Register below in order to reserve your spot for the event. Please note that you will have to reserve your accommodations separately from this. — \nCome join us on this epic journey through the twisty back roads of Eastern Arizona\, where you can take-in the beautiful scenery and enjoy your BMW in a manner that brings out its legendary BMW engineering magic. \nU.S. Route 666 was first commissioned in 1926\, with a northern terminus of Cortez\, CO. The Signage arrived to Arizona in 1938\, stretching to Douglas\, of which 30 miles of it overlapped U.S. Route 66. 1985 marked the end of U.S. Route 66 designation\, leaving U.S. Route 666 an orphan. \nDue to dislike of the reference to the Antichrist\, street signs were stolen at a faster pace than they could be replaced. Rerouting and complaints from superstitious drivers were a few of the reasons that lead to the gradual cessation of Route 666. \nEventually\, Arizona changed the numbering to U.S. 191 in 1993. On May 31\, 2003\, U.S. Route 666 officially became extinct\, leaving legends\, scenic miles\, and the nickname “The Devil’s Highway” for posterity. \n																					 \nDEVIL’S HIGHWAY LOOP DETAILS:\n																					 \nThe “Loop” will start in Alpine and wind its way east into New Mexico (Hwy 180). From there\, we will hook down and around to Clifton\, Arizona (Hwy 78) and then back up to Alpine\, Arizona (Hwy 191). The total distance is about 220 miles of spectacular views\, mountain vistas\, high mountain meadows\, and enough twists\, curves\, and long-fast sweepers through multiple elevation changes to make you and your BMW happy for many months to come! \nWe will drive the loop once – on Saturday. Departure will be on Saturday morning\, at about 10:00 am\, from the Escudilla Mountain Cabins. We will stop for lunch around 12:30 pm or 1:00 pm at Michelle’s in Morenci. Michelle always takes very good care of us. \nOnce we are all fed and rested\, we will get back to it and continue the route back up to Alpine on the deliciously twisty portion of Highway 191 – the Devil’s Highway! \nOnce we return to Alpine\, you will have the opportunity to recap your extraordinary adventure with other BMW enthusiasts\, over a delicious meal\, at the Foxfire at Alpine Restaurant. \nRegister for this event below and be sure to include first names for all attendees so we can prepare name tags. Wait a minute after clicking once on the Submit button to allow the system time to process your request – you will receive a confirming message and an email. \n																					 \nIMPORTANT NOTE: Our drives are designed to be fun and safe for the entire family. As such\, we expect all participants to behave in a mature and safe manner. If you want to have a drag race or test the limits of your BMW then please sign up for our next track event and allow professional instructors to assist you in getting the most out of your BMW.
