I was recently contacted through our Web Page by a Blue Knight from Quebec Canada, Tony Berardiucci, QC XIII. He was staying in Mesa during his trip around the US. He was driving his truck towing his Yamaha Venture behind. I provided him with the other Arizona Chapters so he might be able to connect with other BK’s in Arizona. We met at Picacho Peak Travel Center on Moday 12/29 and decided to take a little ride. We departed there and headed back into Tucson. We exited @ Tangerine and went to Oracle Rd., Rt. 77, where we headed north. Heading north we went past Catalina, the Biosphere, and into Winkelman where we stopped for gas. From there we headed NE through Kearny and Hayden past the open pit mines to US 60. We stopped at the Visitors Center which is an old Red Caboose. From there we continued east until I departed, heading south at Rt 79 back to Tucson while he continued on to Mesa. We had great weather and a very nice ride of over 250 miles. On Tuesday he met with the Blue Knights from Prescott. Below are a few pictures from his meeting with them.

Well we had our monthly breakfast ride today on 12/13/14. Not too often you get the month, day, and year in sequential order like that. Anyway we met at Old Times Cafe for our monthly breakfast. Even with the in-climate weather we had 14 members and family come for breakfast. We even had one brave soul, Bud Welch, ride his Victory in the rain. As we were looking over the breakfast menu they have a breakfast challenge for the competitive eaters. There is a TWENTY-FOUR egg omelet that includes one meat, one vegetable, one cheese, two pieces of toast and one beverage. If you can eat this behemoth within one hour it is free. If not it will cost you a hefty $24 price tag. There is NO SHARING and you cannot buy it as a group to split. It is only as a challenge for one person to try and eat.
Those who made the ride today were; Frank & Kate Brunetti, Norm & Mary Hubbard, Stan Thibaut, Jeff & Kelli Jamieson, Pat Shely, Duane Lewis, Bob Ferrier, Bud Welch, Bob & Rusty Ness, and yours truly. It has been quite sometime but it was really great to see Bob and Rusty make the ride up from Patagonia. It is always a treat to see our dear friends Bob & Rusty. Below are some pictures of our members.

We had our annual Christmas Party at Bill (Rev) and Antje Calkins home. Bill & Antje graciously opened their home once again to our festivities. Those who made our dinner were of course Bill & Antje Calkins, Jeff & Kellie Jamieson, Bill & Jackie Daily (who traveled from Strawberry), Frank & Kate Brunetti, Norm & Marry Hubbard and yours truly. After enjoying appetizers we sat down to a lovely dinner of deep fried turkey, ham, calico beans, scalloped potatoes, fruit salad, and dessert. After dinner we all sat down for the White Elephant/Chinese Gift Exchange. Below are pictures from the dinner party.
