Let's go to Arkansas

[GalaxyBlue]

I might just have to meet up with yall and show you some of my favorites in the area!

Will this be pretty much a 2 up ride. My wife won't go any where on a motorcycle.

I'm not planning to bring my girlfriend, and as for my wife, she'll be out of the country.

Db....you really gotta change that avatar of yours to something other then my wife.

I want to go but have to leave Monday morning (Oct 9) on a business trip. Any other weekend. FJRayJ

The original discussion would be to make it a Fri-Sun ride and leave monday as a down day (home before monday). That would still meet you need.

Bounce,

Do you have a guess as to when on Sunday you plan to return to D/FW?

This might work for me after all.

Not yet. Still in the planning stages. You always have the option to leave when you need to. No one will chain you to the state.

I'm just a few hours away from that area (Texarkana). So count me in. As far as where to stay it does not matter to me Russelville, Mt Ida whatever. It should be a great time to ride in that area, I think it might be a tad bit soon for leaf peepers though. Which would be good news for us.

About that girl in the avatar, she looks familiar,... maybe not, I dont know.

So where I sign up and send my money?

No money to be sent anywhere, I'll just let everyone know where we can get a block of rooms together and then your on your own to book it. I just checked with the Super 8 in Russellville and they have 10-15 various rooms available. Once I have a better idea of how many we need, I'll call them (and others) back and work on group rates. I checked with them first because Arkansas Tech University is having their Homecoming on this weekend. A friend of mine called the Holiday Inn and they were booked up, so I began to wonder if everyone else was too.

Right now, I'm seeing 5 people that are in, 7 maybes and 2 more maybes that I know of, that haven't posted up. If some of you maybes could confirm or deny soon, that would be appreciated! If anyone is gonna share a room, lemme know that too.

in

this'll be a blast!

now i'm wondering if i oughta spoon on a new set of Pilot Roads before this...

 

[fjrrider]

Ok sounds good! BTW there is at least 1 other rider that will be with me as well. He rides an FJR too!

 

[mbottoms]

I am 95% sure that I will be able to make it.

I went to Mena several months ago with the Hooligans from the other board and we had a great time.

We stayed in Mena, but I am open to whatever works best for the group.

Bounce, as far as the tires go, they made me stop last trip at noon on Saturday and go get a new rear.

It took some serious work to find just one rear and then had to beg the Honda Dealer in Russseville to install it.

And I do mean beg, it took me nearly 30 minutes to convince them and finally they did.

All because it was a Yami and they said their policy wouldn't allow them to work on anything but a Honda.

If questionable, I would go ahead while your on your home 20.

I'd like to make this trip. Unfortunately I have my long trip planed around them. I'll definately go if my other trip falls through. Count me almost in.

You know I just thought about this, I was willing to send money anywhere in a earlier post and fjrchik said she didnt want any money! I dunno.... but thats uhh..... well anyway. Yall may know as much about that area as I do but there are some hotels in Ozark AR. which is right on I-40, and 23 North is a pretty good start to anywhere in NW Arkansas. Just a suggestion.

Looks like everything is all clear at this point, so count me in. The project I'm working on is going through some adjustments on go-live dates so that could possibly impact this, but so far all the discussions don't pose any problems.

Time to get out my farkle list and see what I need to get crossed off before this trip.

And in case we need to start keeping track of this, I'll be heading back Sunday.
