How do we keep Dudley busy with two quarters and a beer?

The Ratz were in Rawhide a couple nights ago, once again in honor of our friend Craig Creed! ( In his honor, I have loaded "Shooting Star" by Bad Company into our player! Scroll down and give it a listen! Those that were at Rawhide know why I picked this song for him :-) We were on our way out and noticed some really cool kiddie rides! I had a pocket full of quarters and nowhere to spend them so, well the pictures tell it all! LOL Ride on Dudley, Ride on.........
Dudley Trotting!
Dudley at a Full Gallop! LOL

Ratz ride everywhere to get to San Tan Flatz

Our beloved Dingbat Rat was the photographer shooting the photos posted below!
So I decided to put a photo in , acting as a stunt double for her missing one! You really can't tell either?! LOL

By the way, she was arrested in CHINA for jacking some poor mans hot soup cart! Shhh!
What a dirty Rat!

Anyone want some M&M's? OK, so I am holding these up for my friend Karen! Don't worry Karen, It is still a secret! Just thought you would get a kick out of this? LOL


One big happy family!



Three Bad A%$#@s! LOL Biggy, Dudley/Crash and Pieman/PieRat! AAAARRRRRRR! Get it? PieRat















What a great day for a ride! Dudley was leading so we were not sure where we would end up? This was another famous Ratz Discovery ride! What a great ride it was too. We went through Chandler, Casa Grande, Sacaton, Florence, Coolidge and ended up in Queen Creek at one of our old favorite stomping grounds! These are a few photos from one of our stops!










P.S. Dudley calls time out usually when he has an important question! I think he learned this either in his tennis class or his improv class? We love the Dudster.

Ratz on the Rim? Ratz in the Lake? Ratz Grafitti?

Ratz grafitti? That's right! We left our mark in the Creekside inn at Christopher Creek!
We finally get Stanley to sport our patch proud like on a vest and what is the first thing he does in front of all the folks at the lake? He falls in? No really he fell in the lake! You can't just make this stuff up! LOL

Stanley and Pinky picking on Pack!


Rocker and Tat getting our mouths covered!



Hiker Ellen? Now it all makes sense!










That's right Ladiez and germs! We took a fantastic ride today up to Christopher Creek, Woods Canyon Lake and the Rim!










Stanley ending it all? Not really, but he had Pack all upset and afraid to look over the edge!lol

Rat's Invade TAG'S Again

Three Ratz, eager to get to the tucker bag. Come on Wrench Rat, we are hungry...can we please get on with it, that is what their faces were saying. It was passed on with good authority.
Seems that the Wrench Rat figures out how to lessen the fumes which were putting Rocker to sleep. So, we fixed two problems with this unscheduled stop...personal relief for some, and a cleaner air for some followers behind WR.


After the call to duty, oops I mean nature, we had to say goodbye to one of the pack. You missed the best part of the trip, or did you? I guess I missed the best part, as I am the only one not privvy to that "best" part. Oh, the things Dudley has to put up with. Rocker and Dingbat saying farewell to Wayne. But we pressed on to more of the adventure.



All the Ratz were happy musing over the wonderful and tasty surprises that our Ding Bat Bunny brought on behalf of the Easter Bunny. Easter Bunny did not want much to do with our crazy group, beside EB had way to many other "children" to deliver to. Notice, that Rocker did finally get his "Disney" surprise. Boy, was he happy. Forgot all about thongs for a brief moment. Very brief.....

Dudley proudly displaying his Easter gift, a genuine Mickey Mouse flying plane, complete with a launcher. Of course, there is attached a ducky full of good chocolate. Being the good little rat that Dudley is, he gave the duckie and chocolate to Pixie Rat. Easter should come more often.






Unbeknownst to the "Ratz", the Eazter Bunny had surprises for all of us. Here one of our newest Ratz, tentatively known as "Flat Top Rat", reveals that his childhood antics are still with him. He opened his Easter toy, and was happier than I've seen him in a while. Blow that balloon Flat Top, and away goes the speed racer. He even had the other customers retrieving his toy so he did not have to get up. Rocker is jealous...all he got were cookies......poor Rocker!




Ratz getting ready to depart after a meal fit for Ratz. The star attraction here is the '68 Electra Glide, lovingly nursed back to life by Wrench Rat! She's a beaut' for sure. But don't ride behind......you might get very light headed...
But alas, twas time to return to the forsaken land of reality. Heading home one and all.

The Ratz at Big Nose Kates Tombstone, AZ.


Please join us in the celebration of Craig Creeds life! The photo above from 2 years ago of the Ratz in Tombstone. Craig pictured in his new black hat! This is the trip that he purchased the hat the PGR keeps talking about! On Friday morning April 10th we will host a friendship ride in Craig Creeds honor departing The Human Bean Coffee Shop located on the SW corner of Country Club and Main in Mesa AZ. at 9am. This is what he would want! We will ride as a group over to the funeral site. The PGR will lead us from there! Please fly your flags on your bike! We will ride with flashers and headlights on! If anyone needs a ride I am sure we can round up some empty passenger seats so anyone who wants to can ride in the procession! Let me know at makujambi@hotmail.com and I will try to pair you up with someone that has room on their bike!
