UPDATE...at the bottom of this post.
Ride down on Friday, have 2 full days of the Arkansas Hills that everyone is talking about, then ride home on Monday. It is not an "Organized" ride of any kind, just a show up and enjoy the roads, eat, sleep, repeat.
The Hub seems like it has good reviews from people who have been before. This is where SFO in September is staying. Rates are really good around 60 for a multiple day stay for 2 queens. Here is the site
Arkansas is on my list of places to go. I am planning on going to SFO. But I may get cancelled because of commitments out of my control. From what everyone says, going 2 times will not harm anyone and there is plenty of roads to go around.
It looks like we already have some takers. We need a GPS Wizard like we had on the SE Wisconsin. My GPS is a cheap car model that doesn't save routes on the files.
This area has high expectations. Looking forward to sampling the scenery. Weather data from the past few years indicates Highs in the 65 to 70. Lows around 43. Some have said the tarmac around these parts can be hard on tires, so bring plenty of tread. (why did I think of wheatie just then?)
Hope to see you there.

I know this is a still a little ways out, but it would be nice to have an idea of who is committed to coming and who is contemplating on coming.
The Committed include
Myself
Allen_C
We are arriving Friday March 27th at the Quality INN that Marty referenced in post #68. We just had to work out the details before we booked. We are meeting up around Marshall Illinois and heading that way.
I know others have emailed or PMed me about their plans, but I will not put them on the Committed list.
Some said they are looking to camp, some are likely looking for a roomie. To facilitate the hook ups, maybe you could post your intentions here.
Allen_C and I will be in the area riding and hope to see some of you.
