buddies and I stayed at the Ramada Express(now Tropicana Express). I paid 475.00 because the wife and I are members of their players club. Buddies paid 575.00 because they were not. The year before we paid 550 at the Flamingo(now Aquarius).............paying that kind of money sucks, but the river run is a blast!

we stayed in Lake Havasu last year and that was to far to ride back and forth.So i guess we will suck it up and pay the 600.00 for three days. Not very many places to ride down there anyway.

Last year I stayed in Kingman its a little closer, but the traffic going in and out got bad a few times. They raised thier rates a little but I stayed 1 night.

It costs us $230,000.00 to stay at the "Casa Screwball" in Bullhead.

Hey JM, is this the same Route 66 sign???

That'd be funny as all Hades if it was. And it looks very much like it might be. That little downhill stretch just East of Oatman where I usually see someone picking up their bike. Is that the place???

No, this is farther down toward Kingman, although I knew where you were (background) We have a house on the River in Bullhead, and like to run Route 66 when we are there. Great ride to the Grand Canyon.

I searched for rooms during the Run. The only one that came up was for Harrahs. 270 a night! For that I will deal with traffic and a 30 min drive. How big is Needles anything else worth riding to? Kingman was nice last year the Harley dealer had a little party goin on. Cracker Barrel is worth the stay alone and Whataburger too.
