Rock Springs Pie Run, April 14, 2012

Sat, 14 Apr 2012 07:00:00 GMT

On April 14th a group of Hardy club members braved unseasonably cold and blustery weather to make a run up to the Rock Springs Cafe for some great food and delicious pie. And we weren't disappointed! The drive was a "pleasant" one traveling from Biddulph Mazda up the Lake Pleasant Parkway, New River Road and up The Black Canyon Highway to our final destination. Only one brave sole had the top down!

One of our members enjoyed the run so much, she returned to Biddulph Mazda and purchased a brand new 2012 MX5 Special Edition! Only 400 of those "Puppies" made!

All in all, it was another successful Sahuaro Miata Club event.

It was a beautiful January afternoon. 25 cars gathered to take a late afternoon cruise to Tortilla Flats. The drive to Tortilla Flats is a twisty mountain road perfect for Miatas. Everyone stopped and had a nice lunch at the Canyon Lake Marina. After lunch a few went to the little Tortilla Flat town to sample some prickly pear ice cream and live music. Others just enjoyed the drive back to the city. It was a fun way to start the year.
