Title: Hanging around with an El Dorado
Post by: darkstar1269 on December 04, 2017, 04:52:52 PM
Went to a local bike bar here in Cave Creek, AZ on the new MGX (which was greatly admired) and everyone kept telling me they had a Guzzi there and I needed to check it out. Turned out to be pretty cool this old El Dorado just hanging there.

Based on the number of AZ folks here on the forum though, this may not be the first posting of this bike?

I always said I'd never met a beer that I didn't like... until I met a Cave creek chili beer back in the day. That's the first one I poured out.  :smiley: It had been a while, so we visited the brewery on a trip to see her kid at school at Arizona state back in the 80s. It was nasty. It wasn't the chilis after all. All of them were bad. How can you make a bad beer? <scratching head>  :smiley:
They're still in business??

Sad to see an old Guzzi "hanging around"!!!   Bikes are meant to be ridden.  Even though they are pretty, they are not decorations.

Cheers, Tim

That is a different place. They closed up shop a few years back. This place is relatively new but owned by a main stay biker joint just down the road...the hideaway

  Hey, I like the cave creek beer.  You just don't like the worm in it.
