Ride to Jerome

Notice Dudleys Jacket matches his bike!


Rusty aka(Soldier Rat) comes home

One of our own comes home safe!
The picture says it all! Relieved mother Cindy hugging her son.
The Ratz have a lot of respect for this kid and kinda adopted him in! We gave him the name Soldier Rat and feel honored to know and ride with him!

Rhonda aka(Cocoa Rat) and Stanley on Mt. Lemon

Rhonda (Cocoa) can ride with and sometimes outride the boyz!
Stanley is an awesome rider and from behind looks like he is riding a recliner! Feet always hangin off the Highway pegs enjoying the ride!

Ken (Dropa) aka DooDoo and his son Charlie

We gave Little Charlie the name Joey Rat! You know, Kangaroo Ratz have kids and baby kangaroos are called Joey's! This photo was taken in beautiful downtown Florence, AZ.

That leads to This!

You never know what you will be looking at by the end of the night!
That meaning partying and this meaning these crazy photos!

Ratz Ride Pacific Coast Highway

You would think I would post a picture of the ocean?
NOT! One of many stops! You can't see it but there is a liquor store off to the left. We had to make a stop there and stock up for the night at the hotel!

"Patron Tequila"is the official drink of the Ratz! No, we are not sponsored by them but should be!

That is, after the bikes are parked!
Safety first and always! We do not mix Liquor and two wheels!
Only Liquor and two legs!

A visitor from far away Belgium

1st Photo is Crash aka(Dudley) looking studly at Roosevelt Dam!

2nd Photo is of Rocker, Crash, Didier and his uncle John at Roosevelt Dam!


The 3rd Photo is Rocker, Didier from Belgium and Doo Doo at the Gas station in Payson AZ.
Didier rented a bike and we took him all over Arizona. Afterwords he said he wanted to move here from Belgium. Who could blame him? We do have the best all weather riding in the country!




































What? Ratz on the Midway?

That's right! That's Rocker and Lieber standing on the deck of the Midway aircraft carrier in good old San Diego! Pretty sweet, hey?

The Don at the Canyon!

The "Don Rat" Always watching over the troops! He has so much Chicago running through his blood, I think he bleeds Pizza sauce? Nick is true blue and a best friend to all!

Did you know?....

Sh%#*$ eatin' grins

Lieber and Doo Doo! Notice the "Empty Pitchers" on the table! Don't worry, we all took a bus back to the hotel!

Aero Rat and his big meatballs

The photo that shall go down in the history books! This was a 5 star restaurant in Grande Junction CO. that hid us in a back room so the rest of their clientele wouldn't see us and served Bill aka(Aero) the Biggest Meatballs we had ever seen! Please note: The knife in the middle of the huge balls could have and probably should have got us kicked out but instead the restaurants waitress had a "Ball" with our crazy, smelly and rowdy group!

Duck Duck Goose or Rat Rat Squirrel?

RRRRRRRRR! The Pirate Squirrel Rules!




Road Ratz in "Sin City"?


It's true! Papa Rat has moved to Las Vegas and plans to start a Nevada Road Ratz chapter! I know we will be doing a ride probably in May of 2009 called the loneliest highway!
We hope to meet up with them 1/2 way and ride the highway together!
See you soon Mr. Papa

Ratz in motion

That's right boyz and girlz! Check out the dismount! Thats Crash aka(Dudley) and Rocker
gettin' the "heck out the way" as they jump off the ski lift on top of Mt. Lemon during the 2007 Arizona State HOG Rally!

In Memory of Danny Bales
