Big Wheels/Easy Riders

The Big Wheels and Easy Riders, off-highway groups, offer opportunities to explore and enjoy the back country of national forests and statewide terrain in Jeeps, and other suitable vehicles. All vehicles are required to have 4 wheel drive, high clearance and a handheld GMRS or have one installed in their vehicle. Contact Bill Elledge at hemi.ramdodge3@gmail.com.

The groups plan several trips a month year-round for 4-wheel-drive vehicles. There are also several overnight trips each year.

Trips leave from the Sun City West Kuentz Recreation Center parking lot off Stardust Blvd and drivers/passengers meet 20 minutes before departure time to sign in. Trips are rated 1-10 (easy to difficult). Bring your own lunch, water, and a folding chair. Passengers are welcome on a space-available basis. Show up at the departure area for a space-available ride. Passengers are encouraged to pay for refueling the driver’s vehicle.

For more information or to be included in the Big Wheels/Easy Riders email list, contact Greg Smith or Bill Elledge at one of the Sportsman’s Club’s monthly meetings or contact Bill Elledge by email at hemi.ramdodge3@gmail.com.

If you are interested in seeing the back country but are not inclined toward rock climbing and the rough trails, the Easy Riders are for you. Contact Greg Smith for more information.
