Making Rocky Point Connections
I am trying to find a point of contact for the 2008 Rocky Point Rally. I want to ride with a group from Why, AZ to Rocky Point. My wife and I have a condo reserved and are looking for a couple (NON-Smokers) who would like to share. Also, how is the police activity between Rocky Point and the boarder? If you have any information please let me know. Thank You and we look forward to seeing you there. Allen Williams allenwillaims@cox.net
